The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) designates World Heritage Sites of outstanding universal value to cultural or natural heritage which have been nominated by countries which are signatories to the UNESCO World Heritage Convention, established in 1972.[1] Cultural heritage consists of monuments (such as architectural works, monumental sculptures, or inscriptions), groups of buildings, and sites (including archaeological sites). Natural features (consisting of physical and biological formations), geological and physiographical formations (including habitats of threatened species of animals and plants), and natural sites which are important from the point of view of science, conservation or natural beauty, are defined as natural heritage.[2] Mongolia ratified the convention on 2 February 1990.[3]
Mongolia has six sites on the list. The first site, the Uvs Nuur Basin, was listed in 2003. The most recent site, the Deer Stone Monuments and Related Bronze Age Sites, was listed in 2023. Two sites are natural and transnational sites shared with Russia. The other four sites are cultural. In addition, Mongolia has 11 sites on the tentative list.[3]
