AFGHANISTAN 2002 – Minaret and archaeological remains of Jam / Minaret et vestiges archéologiques de Djam (Criteria C (ii) (iii) (iv) The 65m-tall Minaret of Jam is a graceful, soaring structure, dating back to the 12th century. Covered in elaborate brickwork with a blue tile inscription at the top, it is noteworthy for the quality of its architecture and decoration, which represent the culmination of an architectural and artistic tradition in this region. Its impact is heightened by its dramatic setting, a deep river valley between towering mountains in the heart of the Ghur province.

Justification for Inscription: Criterion (ii): The innovative architecture and decoration of the Minaret of Jam played a significant role in the development of the arts and architecture of the Indian sub-continent and beyond.

Criterion (iii): The Minaret of Jam and its associated archaeological remains constitute exceptional testimony to the power and quality of the Ghurid civilization that dominated its region in the 12th and 13th centuries.

Criterion (iv): The Minaret of Jam is an outstanding example of Islamic architecture and ornamentation in this region and played a significant role in their further dissemination.

2003 - Cultural Landscape and Archaeological Remains of the Bamiyan Valley / Paysage culturel et vestiges archéologiques de la vallée de Bamiyan (Criteria C (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (vi)) The cultural landscape and archaeological remains of the Bamiyan Valley represent the artistic and religious developments which from the 1st to the 13th centuries characterized ancient Bakhtria, integrating various cultural influences into the Gandhara school of Buddhist art. The area contains numerous Buddhist monastic ensembles and sanctuaries, as well as fortified edifices from the Islamic period. The site is also testimony to the tragic destruction by the Taliban of the two standing Buddha statues, which shook the world in March 2001.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (i): The Buddha statues and the cave art in Bamiyan Valley are an outstanding representation of the Gandharan school in Buddhist art in the Central Asian region. Criterion (ii): The artistic and architectural remains of Bamiyan Valley, and an important Buddhist centre on the Silk Road, are an exceptional testimony to the interchange of Indian, Hellenistic, Roman, Sasanian influences as the basis for the development of a particular artistic expression in the Gandharan school. To this can be added the Islamic influence in a later period. Criterion (iii): The Bamiyan Valley bears an exceptional testimony to a cultural tradition in the Central Asian region, which has disappeared. Criterion (iv): The Bamiyan Valley is an outstanding example of a cultural landscape which illustrates a significant period in Buddhism. Criterion (vi): The Bamiyan Valley is the most monumental expression of the western Buddhism. It was an important centre of pilgrimage over many centuries. Due to their symbolic values, the monuments have suffered at different times of their existence, including the deliberate destruction in 2001, which shook the whole world.

Le paysage culturel et les vestiges archéologiques de la vallée de Bamiyan illustrent les développements artistiques et religieux qui, du Ier au XIIIe siècle, ont caractérisé l’ancienne Bactriane, intégrant diverses influences culturelles pour former l’école d’art bouddhique du Gandhara. Le site contient plusieurs ensembles monastiques et sanctuaires bouddhistes, ainsi que des édifices fortifiés de la période islamique. Il témoigne également de la tragique destruction des deux bouddhas debout par les taliban, qui ébranla le monde en mars 2001.

Justification d'inscription Critère (i): Les statues de Bouddha et l’art rupestre de la vallée de Bamyan sont une représentation exceptionnelle de l’école du Gandhara dans l’art bouddhique de la région d’Asie centrale. Critère (ii): Les vestiges artistiques et architecturaux de la vallée de Bamyan, important centre bouddhiste sur la Route de la Soie, sont un témoignage exceptionnel de l’échange des influences indiennes, hellénistiques, romaines et sassanides qui ont servi de fondations à une expression artistique particulière de l’école du Gandhara. À cela s’ajoute une influence islamique ultérieure. Critère (iii): La vallée de Bamyan est un témoignage exceptionnel d’une tradition culturelle d’Asie centrale aujourd’hui disparue.

Critère (iv): La vallée de Bamyan est un exemple exceptionnel de paysage culturel illustrant une période significative du bouddhisme. Critère (vi): La vallée de Bamyan est l’expression monumentale la plus importante du Bouddhisme occidental. Ce fut un centre de pèlerinage essentiel sur plusieurs siècles. Les monuments, en raison de leurs valeurs symboliques, ont souffert à différentes périodes de leur histoire, notamment lors de la destruction délibérée de 2001, qui secoua le monde entier.

AUSTRALIA / AUSTRALIE 1981- Kakadu National Park / Parc National de Kakadu (Criteria: N (ii) (iii) (iv) C (i) (vi) This unique archaeological and ethnological reserve, located in the Northern Territory, has been inhabited continuously for more than 40,000 years. The cave paintings, rock carvings and archaeological sites record the skills and way of life of the region's inhabitants, from the hunter-gatherers of prehistoric times to the Aboriginal people still living there. It is a unique example of a complex of ecosystems, including tidal flats, floodplains, lowlands and plateaux, and provides a habitat for a wide range of rare or endemic species of plants and animals. Le parc constitue une réserve archéologique et ethnologique unique au monde car les terres sur lesquelles il s'étend ont été habitées en permanence depuis 40 000 ans. Des vestiges provenant des chasseurs et des pêcheurs du néolithique jusqu'aux aborigènes qui l'habitent encore au XXe siècle, il présente une histoire des techniques et des comportements illustrée par des peintures et des pictogrammes. C'est le meilleur exemple d'un ensemble d'écosystèmes, depuis les laisses intertidales jusqu'aux plateaux, en passant par les plaines inondées et les basses terres, habitats d'un grand nombre d'espèces rares ou endémiques de la flore et de la faune.

1982 - Tasmanian Wilderness / Zone de nature sauvage de Tasmanie (Criteria N (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) C (iii) (iv) (vi) In a region that has been subjected to severe glaciation, these parks and reserves, with their steep gorges, covering an area of over 1 million ha, constitute one of the last expanses of temperate rainforest in the world. Remains found in limestone caves attest to the human occupation of the area for more than 20,000 years. Dans une région qui a subi de fortes glaciations, ces parcs et réserves, avec leurs gorges profondes, qui couvrent une superficie de plus d'un million d'hectares, constituent l'une des dernières étendues de forêt pluviale tempérée du monde. Les vestiges découverts dans les grottes calcaires témoignent de l'occupation de la région depuis plus de 20 000 ans.

1992- Fraser Island / Ile Fraser (Criteria N (ii) (iii) Fraser Island lies just off the east coast of Australia. At 122 km long, it is the largest sand island in the world. Majestic remnants of tall rainforest growing on sand and half the world's perched freshwater dune lakes are found inland from the beach. The combination of shifting sand-dunes, tropical rainforests and lakes makes it an exceptional site. Au large de la côte orientale de l'Australie, l'île Fraser, longue de 122 km, est la plus grande île de sable du monde. En arrière de la plage se trouvent des vestiges majestueux de grandes forêts pluviales poussant sur le sable et la moitié des lacs dunaires d'eau douce perchés du monde. Sa combinaison de dunes de sable encore en mouvement, de forêts tropicales humides et de lacs en fait un site exceptionnel.

1997- Heard and McDonald Islands / Les îles Heard et McDonald (Criteria N (i) (ii) Heard Island and McDonald Islands are located in the Southern Ocean, approximately 1,700 km from the Antarctic continent and 4,100 km south-west of Perth. As the only volcanically active subantarctic islands they 'open a window into the earth', thus providing the opportunity to observe ongoing geomorphic processes and glacial dynamics. The distinctive conservation value of Heard and McDonald – one of the world's rare pristine island ecosystems – lies in the complete absence of alien plants and animals, as well as human impact.

Justification for Inscription The Committee inscribed this property under criteria (i) and (ii). It noted that this site is the only volcanically active sub-Antarctic island and illustrates ongoing geomorphic processes and glacial dynamics in the coastal and submarine environment and sub-Antarctic flora and fauna, with no record of alien species. The Committee repeated its request by the sixteenth session for further documentation on the marine resources of the site.

Les îles Heard et McDonald sont situées dans l'océan Austral, à environ 1 700 km du continent antarctique et à 4 100 km au sud-ouest de Perth. En tant que seules îles volcaniques subantarctiques en activité, elles constituent une véritable « fenêtre sur les profondeurs de la Terre » et offrent des possibilités d'observer des processus géomorphiques en cours ainsi que la dynamique des glaces. Comptant parmi les rares écosystèmes insulaires vierges du monde, les îles Heard et McDonald présentent une valeur particulière pour la conservation, du fait de l'absence totale de plantes et d'animaux exotiques comme d'impact humain. Justification d'inscription

Le Comité a inscrit ce bien au titre des critères (i) et (ii). Il a noté que ce site était la seule île volcanique subantarctique en activité et qu'elle illustrait des processus géomorphiques et la dynamique glaciaire en cours dans l'environnement côtier et sous-marin ainsi que la flore et la faune subantarctiques, sans traces d'espèces étrangères. Le Comité a réitéré sa demande exprimée à sa seizième session concernant un supplément d'information sur les ressources marines du site. Bibliography: 019150 - Australia's World Heritage.

1997- Macquarie Island / Ile Macquarie (Criteria N (i) (iii) Macquarie Island (34 km long x 5 km wide) is an oceanic island in the Southern Ocean, lying 1,500 km south-east of Tasmania and approximately halfway between Australia and the Antarctic continent. The island is the exposed crest of the undersea Macquarie Ridge, raised to its present position where the Indo-Australian tectonic plate meets the Pacific plate. It is a site of major geoconservation significance, being the only place on earth where rocks from the earth's mantle (6 km below the ocean floor) are being actively exposed above sea-level. These unique exposures include excellent examples of pillow basalts and other extrusive rocks. Justification for Inscription

The Committee decided that the site provides an unique example of exposure of the ocean crust above the sea level and of geological evidence for sea-floor spreading, and is an exposure of the oceanic plate boundary between the Pacific and Australian/Indian plates, exposed with active faults and ongoing tectonic movements.

Cette île de 34 km de long sur 5 km de large est située dans l'océan Austral, à 1 500 km au sud-est de la Tasmanie et à peu près à mi-chemin entre l'Australie et le continent antarctique. L'île constitue la partie exposée de l'arête sous-marine Macquarie, soulevée en cet endroit où la plaque tectonique indo-australienne rencontre celle du Pacifique. Il s'agit d'un site dont la conservation géologique présente une importance majeure car c'est le seul endroit de la planète où des roches en provenance du manteau terrestre (6 km au-dessous du fond de l'océan) sont exposées de façon active au-dessus du niveau de la mer. On trouve parmi ces roches uniques de remarquables exemples de basalte en coussin et d'autres roches extrusives

Justification d'inscription Le Comité a décidé que le site offrait un exemple unique d’exposition de la crête océanique au-dessus du niveau de la mer et constituait un témoignage géologique d’une expansion des fonds océaniques à la limite de la plaque océanique située entre les plaques du Pacifique et indo-australienne, présentant des failles actives et des mouvements tectoniques permanents.

2000- Greater Blue Mountains Area / Région des montagnes bleues (Criteria N (ii) (iv) The Greater Blue Mountains Area consists of 1.03 million ha of sandstone plateaux, escarpments and gorges dominated by temperate eucalypt forest. The site, comprised of eight protected areas, is noted for its representation of the evolutionary adaptation and diversification of the eucalypts in post-Gondwana isolation on the Australian continent. Ninety-one eucalypt taxa occur within the Greater Blue Mountains Area which is also outstanding for its exceptional expression of the structural and ecological diversity of the eucalypts associated with its wide range of habitats. The site provides significant representation of Australia's biodiversity with ten percent of the vascular flora as well as significant numbers of rare or threatened species, including endemic and evolutionary relict species, such as the Wollemi pine, which have persisted in highly-restricted microsites.

Criteria (ii) and (iv): Australia’s eucalypt vegetation is worthy of recognition as of outstanding universal value, because of its adaptability and evolution in post-Gondwana isolation. The site contains a wide and balanced representation of eucalypt habitats from wet and dry sclerophyll, mallee heathlands, as well as localised swamps, wetlands, and grassland. 90 eucalypt taxa (13% of the global total) and representation of all four groups of eucalypts occur. There is also a high level of endemism with 114 endemic taxa found in the area as well as 120 nationally rare and threatened plant taxa. The site hosts several evolutionary relic species (Wollemia, Microstrobos, Acrophyllum) which have persisted in highly restricted microsites.

La région des montagnes Bleues couvre 1,03 million d'hectares formés de plateaux calcaires, de gorges et d'escarpements dominés par des forêts d'eucalyptus de zone tempérée. Le site, qui comprend huit aires protégées, se distingue par sa représentation de l'adaptation et de la diversification évolutionnaires des eucalyptus sur le continent australien dans l'isolement post-Gondwana. La région des montagnes Bleues qui compte 91 taxons d'eucalyptus, est aussi remarquable par l'exceptionnelle diversité structurelle et écologique de ses eucalyptus associée à un large éventail d'habitats. Le site offre une bonne illustration de la diversité biologique de l'Australie avec 10 % de sa flore vasculaire et un grand nombre d'espèces rares ou menacées, y compris des espèces endémiques et reliques, comme le pin Wollemi (wollemia noblis), qui subsistent dans des microsites extrêmement restreints.

2003- Purnululu National Park / Parc national Purnululu (Criteria N (i) (iii) The 239,723 ha Purnululu National Park is located in the State of Western Australia. It contains the deeply dissected Bungle Bungle Range composed of Devonian-age quartz sandstone eroded over a period of 20 million years into a series of beehive-shaped towers or cones, whose steeply sloping surfaces are distinctly marked by regular horizontal bands of dark-grey cyanobacterial crust (single-celled photosynthetic organisms). These outstanding examples of cone karst owe their existence and uniqueness to several interacting geological, biological, erosional and climatic phenomena. Justification for Inscription

Criterion (i): Earth’s history and geological features The claim to outstanding universal geological value is made for the Bungle Bungle Range. The Bungle Bungles are, by far, the most outstanding example of cone karst in sandstones anywhere in the world and owe their existence and uniqueness to several interacting geological, biological, erosional and climatic phenomena. The sandstone karst of PNP is of great scientific importance in demonstrating so clearly the process of cone karst formation on sandstone - a phenomenon recognised by geomorphologists only over the past 25 years and still incompletely understood, despite recently renewed interest and research. The Bungle Bungle Ranges of PNP also display to an exceptional degree evidence of geomorphic processes of dissolution, weathering and erosion in the evolution of landforms under a savannah climatic regime within an ancient, stable sedimentary landscape. IUCN considers that the nominated site meets this criterion. Criterion (iii): Superlative natural phenomena or natural beauty and aesthetic importance Although PNP has been widely known in Australia only during the past 20 years and it remains relatively inaccessible, it has become recognised internationally for its exceptional natural beauty. The prime scenic attraction is the extraordinary array of banded, beehive-shaped cone towers comprising the Bungle Bungle Range. These have become emblematic of the park and are internationally renowned among Australia’s natural attractions. The dramatically sculptured structures, unrivalled in their scale, extent, grandeur and diversity of forms anywhere in the world, undergo remarkable seasonal variation in appearance, including striking colour transition following rain. The intricate maze of towers is accentuated by sinuous, narrow, sheer-sided gorges lined with majestic Livistona fan palms. These and the soaring cliffs up to 250 m high are cut by seasonal waterfalls and pools, creating the major tourist attractions in the park, with evocative names such as Echidna Chasm, and Frog Hole, Piccaninny and Cathedral Gorges. The diversity of landforms and ecosystems elsewhere in the park are representative of the larger region, and lack a unique aesthetic quality, but provide a sympathetic visual buffer for the massif. The powerful aesthetic experience of the Bungle Bungles has aroused huge interest among the public, and the ranges figure prominently in national and international advertising of Australia’s tourist attractions, matching the prominence of the Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park. Photographers and travel writers include the Bungle Bungles among the world’s natural wonders, some describing them as Australia’s equivalent of the Grand Canyon.

Le Parc national de Purnululu (239 723 ha), situé dans l’État d’Australie occidentale, contient le massif très découpé des Bungle Bungle, composé de grès quartzique du dévonien érodé pendant 20 millions d’années. Il en reste un ensemble de tourelles et de cônes en forme de ruches aux flancs abrupts, à la surface striée de bandes horizontales de croûte gris foncé de cyanobactéries (organismes photosynthétiques unicellulaires). Ces exemples exceptionnels de karst à cônes de grès doivent leur existence et leur caractère unique à l’interaction de plusieurs phénomènes géologiques, biologiques, climatiques et de l’érosion.

Justification d'inscription Critère (i): histoire de la terre et processus géologiques La valeur universelle géologique exceptionnelle est attribuée au massif des Bungle Bungle. Les Bungle Bungle sont, de loin, l’exemple le plus exceptionnel de karst gréseux à cônes dans le monde et doivent leur

20

existence et leur caractère unique à plusieurs phénomènes géologiques, biologiques, érosifs et climatiques interdépendants. Le karst gréseux du PNP a une grande importance scientifique car il démontre clairement le processus de formation de karst à cônes dans le grès – un phénomène qui n’est reconnu par les géomorphologistes que depuis 25 ans et qui n’est pas encore totalement compris malgré un intérêt et des travaux de recherche récemment renouvelés. Le massif des Bungle Bungle du PNP illustre aussi, à un degré exceptionnel, les processus géomorphologiques de dissolution, altération et érosion dans l’évolution d’un relief soumis à un régime climatique de savane, dans un paysage ancien et stable du point de vue sédimentaire. L’UICN considère que le site proposé remplit ce critère. Critère (ii): processus écologiques La valeur exceptionnelle du PNP pour la biodiversité est attribuée à trois raisons principales: représentation de la diversité du biote australien ; association peu courante des biotes tropical et de désert ; et illustration de l’adaptation et de l’évolution du biote australien. La région de Purnululu présente un exemple intéressant du biote de la zone de transition entre les domaines biogéographiques septentrional (de mousson) et central (aride) d’Australie. Toutefois, vu que les études biologiques du PNP (en particulier pour les reptiles et les invertébrés) sont incomplètes et compte tenu de l’absence de toute analyse comparative nationale ou internationale rigoureuse, l’importance générale des espèces et des écosystèmes du PNP est difficile à déterminer. Le biote semble être plutôt typique et représentatif d’une large zone de transition biogéographique entre l’Australie aride et l’Australie de la mousson à l’échelle du continent plutôt que réellement exceptionnel. Bien des éléments clés se trouvent probablement aussi dans des biens du patrimoine existants tels que le Parc national du Kakadu et le Parc national Uluru-Kata Tjuta. La valeur biologique d’importance universelle exceptionnelle ne peut donc, pour le moment, être confirmée. L’UICN considère que le site proposé ne remplit pas ce critère. Critère (iii): phénomènes naturels éminemment remarquables ou de beauté exceptionnelle Bien que le PNP ne soit largement connu en Australie que depuis 20 ans et reste relativement inaccessible, il est reconnu au niveau international pour sa beauté naturelle exceptionnelle. La principale attraction panoramique est la gamme extraordinaire de tourelles coniques en forme de ruches et regroupées qui se trouvent dans le massif des Bungle Bungle. Ces tourelles sont devenues l’emblème du parc et sont un des attraits naturels de l’Australie célèbres au niveau international. Les structures sculptées de manière saisissante, sans égal à cette échelle, dans cette étendue et dans la grandeur et la diversité des formes où que ce soit dans le monde, subissent des variations saisonnières remarquables dans leur apparence, y compris des transitions de couleurs frappantes après la pluie. Le labyrinthe de tourelles est accentué par des gorges sinueuses, étroites, aux pentes raides, ourlées de majestueux palmiers Livistona en éventail. Ces caractéristiques et les falaises abruptes qui s’élèvent jusqu’à 250 m de haut sont coupées par des cascades et des mares saisonnières – important attrait touristique pour le parc – et répondent à des noms évocateurs tels que Echidna Chasm (le Chaos de l’Échidné), Frog Hole (le Trou de la Grenouille), Piccaninny et les Gorges de la Cathédrale. La diversité des reliefs et des écosystèmes, ailleurs dans le parc, est représentative de toute la région et n’a pas de qualité esthétique particulière mais constitue une toile de fond agréable pour le massif. L’expérience esthétique puissante qu’offrent les Bungle Bungle a suscité un intérêt important du public et le massif est en bonne place dans la publicité vantant les attraits touristiques de l’Australie aux niveaux national et international, à l’égal du Parc national Uluru-Kata Tjuta. Photographes et écrivains considèrent les Bungle Bungle comme l’une des merveilles naturelles du monde et certains les décrivent comme l’équivalent australien du Grand Canyon. L’UICN considère que le site proposé remplit ce critère.

2004- Royal Exhibition Building and Carlton Gardens / Palais royal des expositions et jardins Carlton (Criteria C (ii) The Royal Exhibition Building and its surrounding Carlton Gardens were designed for the great international exhibitions of 1880 and 1888 in Melbourne. The building and grounds were designed by Joseph Reed. The building is constructed of brick and timber, steel and slate. It combines elements from the Byzantine, Romanesque, Lombardic and Italian Renaissance styles. The property is typical of the international exhibition movement which saw over 50 exhibitions staged between 1851 and 1915 in venues including Paris, New York, Vienna, Calcutta, Kingston (Jamaica) and Santiago (Chile). All

shared a common theme and aims: to chart material and moral progress through displays of industry from all nations. Justification for Inscription

Criterion (ii): The Royal Exhibition Building and the surrounding Carlton Gardens, as the main extant survivors of a Palace of Industry and its setting, together reflect the global influence of the international exhibition movement of the 19th and early 20th centuries. The movement showcased technological innovation and change, which helped promote a rapid increase in industrialisation and international trade through the exchange of knowledge and ideas.

Le Palais royal des expositions et les jardins Carlton qui l’entourent ont été conçus pour les grandes expositions internationales de 1880 et 1888 à Melbourne. Le bâtiment et le terrain ont été dessinés par Joseph Reed. Le bâtiment, construit en brique, bois, acier et ardoise, amalgame des traits byzantins, romans, lombards et de la Renaissance italienne. Cet ensemble est représentatif du mouvement des expositions internationales. Entre 1851 et 1915, plus de 50 d’entre elles furent organisées dans des villes comme Paris, New York, Vienne, Calcutta, Kingston (Jamaïque) et Santiago du Chili, sur la base d’un principe et d’un objectif commun : dresser un état des lieux du progrès en exposant les réalisations de tous les pays. Justification d'inscription

Critère (ii) : Le Palais royal des expositions et les jardins Carlton environnants, en tant que principaux vestiges d’un Palais de l’Industrie et de son cadre, reflètent ensemble l’influence mondiale du Mouvement des expositions internationales du XIXe siècle et du début du XXe siècle. Ce mouvement mettait en exergue l’innovation technologique et le changement, qui ont contribué à favoriser un développement rapide de l’industrialisation et du commerce international par l’échange des connaissances et des idées.

1997- The Sundarbans / Les Sundarbans (Criteria N (ii) (iv) The Sundarbans mangrove forest, one of the largest such forests in the world (140,000 ha), lies on the delta of the Ganges, Brahmaputra and Meghna rivers on the Bay of Bengal. It is adjacent to the border of India's Sundarbans World Heritage site inscribed in 1987. The site is intersected by a complex network of tidal waterways, mudflats and small islands of salt-tolerant mangrove forests, and presents an excellent example of ongoing ecological processes. The area is known for its wide range of fauna, including 260 bird species, the Bengal tiger and other threatened species such as the estuarine crocodile and the Indian python. Justification for Inscription

The Committee inscribed the site under criteria (ii) and (iv) as one of the largest remaining areas of mangroves in the world, which supports an exceptional biodiversity with a wide range of flora and fauna, including the Bengal Tiger and provides a significant example of on-going ecological processes (monsoon rains, flooding, delta formation, tidal influence and plant colonisation).

La forêt de mangroves des Sundarbans, l'une des plus grandes forêts mondiales de ce type (140 000 ha), couvre le delta du Gange, du Brahmapoutre et de la Meghna, dans la baie du Bengale. Elle est contiguë au site indien des Sundarbans, classé patrimoine mondial depuis 1987. L'ensemble du site est entrecoupé d'un réseau complexe de voies d'eau sous l'influence des marées, de vasières et d'îlots de forêts de mangroves halophiles, offrant un excellent exemple de processus géologiques en cours. Le site est également connu pour la richesse de sa faune qui comprend 260 espèces d'oiseaux, le tigre du Bengale et d'autres espèces menacées comme le crocodile marin et le python indien.

Justification d'inscription Le Comité a inscrit le site au titre des critères (ii) et (iv) comme étant l’une des dernières grandes zones de mangrove du monde, dotée d’une biodiversité exceptionnelle avec une flore et une faune très riches comprenant en particulier le tigre du Bengale, et constituant un exemple important de processus écologiques en cours (pluies de mousson, inondations, formation d'un delta, influence des marées et colonisation végétale).

1992 - Angkor / Angkor (Criteria C (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) Angkor is one of the most important archaeological sites in South-East Asia. Stretching over some 400 sq. km, including forested area, Angkor Archaeological Park contains the magnificent remains of the different capitals of the Khmer Empire, from the 9th to the 15th century. These include the famous Temple of Angkor Wat and, at Angkor Thom, the Bayon Temple with its countless sculptural decorations. UNESCO has set up a wide-ranging programme to safeguard this symbolic site and its surroundings. Angkor est l’un des principaux sites archéologiques de l’Asie du Sud-Est. S’étendant sur quelque 400 km2 couverts en partie par la forêt, le parc archéologique d’Angkor recèle les admirables vestiges des différentes capitales de l’Empire khmer qui rayonna entre le IXe et le XVe siècle : le célèbre temple d’Angkor Vat et, à Angkor Thom, le temple du Bayon orné d’innombrables sculptures. L’UNESCO a mis en oeuvre un vaste programme de sauvegarde de ce site symbole et de son environnement.

1987- The Great Wall / La Grande Muraille (Criteria C (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (vi) In c. 220 B.C., under Qin Shi Huang, sections of earlier fortifications were joined together to form a united defence system against invasions from the north. Construction continued up to the Ming dynasty (1368–1644), when the Great Wall became the world's largest military structure. Its historic and strategic importance is matched only by its architectural significance. Vers 220 av. J.-C., Qin Shin Huang entreprit de réunir des tronçons de fortifications existants pour en faire un système défensif cohérent contre les invasions venues du nord. Poursuivis jusque sous les Ming (1368-1644), ces travaux ont produit le plus gigantesque ouvrage de génie militaire du monde. Son importance historique et stratégique n'a d'égale que sa valeur architecturale. 1987- Imperial Palaces of the Ming and Qing Dynasties in Beijing and Shenyang / Palais impériaux des dynasties Ming et Qing à Beijing et à Shenjang (Criteria C (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (v) (vi)

Seat of supreme power for over five centuries, the Forbidden City, with its landscaped gardens and many buildings (whose nearly 10,000 rooms contain furniture and works of art), constitutes a priceless testimony to Chinese civilization during the Ming and Qing dynasties. Extension: The Imperial Palace of the Qing Dynasty in Shenyang consists of 114 buildings, constructed between 1625-26 and 1783. It contains an important library and testifies to the foundation of the last dynasty that ruled China, before it expanded its power to the centre of the country and moved the capital to Beijing. This palace then became auxiliary to the Imperial Palace in Beijing. This remarkable architectural edifice offers important historical testimony to the history of the Qing Dynasty and to the cultural traditions of the Manchu and other tribes in the north of China.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (i): The Imperial Palaces represent masterpieces in the development of imperial palace architecture in China. Criterion (ii): The architecture of the Imperial Palace complexes, particularly in Shenyang, exhibits an important interchange of influences of traditional architecture and Chinese palace architecture particularly in the 17th and 18th centuries. Criterion (iii): The Imperial Palaces bear exceptional testimony to Chinese civilisation at the time of the Ming and Qing dynasties, being true reserves of landscapes, architecture, furnishings and objects of art, as well as carrying exceptional evidence to the living traditions and the customs of Shamanism practised by the Manchu people for centuries.

36

Criterion (iv): The Imperial Palaces provide outstanding examples of the greatest palatial architectural ensembles in China. They illustrate the grandeur of the imperial institution from the Qing Dynasty to the earlier Ming and Yuan dynasties, as well as Manchu traditions, and present evidence on the evolution of this architecture in the 17th and 18th centuries.

Siège du pouvoir suprême pendant plus de cinq siècles, la Cité interdite, avec ses jardins paysagers et ses nombreux bâtiments dont près de 10 000 salles renferment meubles et œuvres d'art, constitue un témoignage inestimable de la civilisation chinoise au temps des Ming et des Qing.

Justification d'inscription Critère (i) : Les Palais impériaux représentent un chef-d’oeuvre du développement de l’architecture des palais impériaux en Chine. Critère (ii) : L’architecture des palais impériaux, particulièrement à Shenyang, témoigne d’un échange d’influences considérable entre l’architecture traditionnelle et l’architecture des palais chinois aux XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles. Critère (iii) : Les Palais impériaux représentent un témoignage extraordinaire de la civilisation chinoise au temps des dynasties Ming et Qing, étant des ensembles remarquables de paysages, d’architecture, de mobilier, d’objets d’art, et présentant des témoignages exceptionnels des traditions et des coutumes vivantes du chamanisme pratiqué par les Mandchous depuis des siècles. Critère (iv) : Les Palais impériaux sont à l’évidence des exemples exceptionnels d’architecture palatiale chinoise. Ils illustrent la grandeur de l’institution impériale depuis la dynastie Qing jusqu’aux dynasties Ming et Yuan, ainsi que les traditions Mandchoues, et témoignent de l’évolution de l’architecture aux XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles.

1987- Masoleum of the First Qin Emporer / Mausolée du premier empereur Qin (Criteria C (i) (iii) (iv) (vi) No doubt thousands of statues still remain to be unearthed at this archaeological site, which was not discovered until 1974. Qin (d. 210 B.C.), the first unifier of China, is buried, surrounded by the famous terracotta warriors, at the centre of a complex designed to mirror the urban plan of the capital, Xianyan. The small figures are all

38

different; with their horses, chariots and weapons, they are masterpieces of realism and also of great historical interest. Sur ce site archéologique qui ne fut découvert qu'en 1974, il reste sans doute des milliers de statues à mettre au jour. C'est là que Qin, premier unificateur de la Chine, mort en 210 av. J.-C., repose au centre d'un ensemble qui évoque le schéma urbain de sa capitale Xianyan, entouré d'une armée de guerriers en terre cuite devenus rapidement célèbres dans le monde. Ces personnages, tous différents, avec leurs chevaux, leurs chars et leurs armes, sont des chefs-d'œuvre de réalisme, qui constituent aussi un témoignage historique inestimable.

1987- Peking Man Site at Zhoukoudian / Site de l'homme de Pékin à Zhoukoudian (Criteria C (iii) (vi) Scientific work at the site, which lies 42 km south-west of Beijing, is still underway. So far, it has led to the discovery of the remains of Sinanthropus pekinensis, who lived in the Middle Pleistocene, along with various objects, and remains of Homo sapiens sapiens dating as far back as 18,000–11,000 B.C. The site is not only an exceptional reminder of the prehistorical human societies of the Asian continent, but also illustrates the process of evolution. À 42 km au sud-ouest de Pékin, le site, dont l'exploitation scientifique continue, a permis notamment de découvrir, accompagnés d'objets variés, les restes de Sinanthropus pekinensis, qui vivait au pléistocène moyen, puis des restes d'Homo sapiens sapiens, datables de -18 000 à -11 000. Le site n'apporte pas seulement un témoignage exceptionnel sur les sociétés humaines du continent asiatique à une époque très reculée, mais illustre aussi le processus de l'évolution.

1990- Mount Huangshan / Mont Huangshan (Criteria N (iii) (iv) C (ii) Huangshan, known as 'the loveliest mountain of China', was acclaimed through art and literature during a good part of Chinese history (e.g. the Shanshui 'mountain and water' style of the mid-16th century). Today it holds the same fascination for visitors, poets, painters and photographers who come on pilgrimage to the site, which is renowned for its magnificent scenery made up of many granite peaks and rocks emerging out of a sea of clouds. Célébrée durant une bonne partie de l'histoire chinoise dans l'art et la littérature (par exemple dans le style shanshui « montagne et eau », milieu du XVIe siècle), Huangshan, la plus belle montagne de Chine, exerce toujours la même fascination sur les visiteurs, les poètes, les peintres et les photographes d'aujourd'hui venus en pèlerinage dans ce lieu enchanteur, connu pour son paysage grandiose composé de nombreux rochers et pics granitiques émergeant d'une mer de nuages.

1994- Mountain Resort and its Outlying Temples, Chengde / Résidence de montagne et temples avoisinants à Chengde (Criteria C (ii) (iv)

The Mountain Resort (the Qing dynasty's summer palace), in Hebei Province, was built between 1703 and 1792. It is a vast complex of palaces and administrative and ceremonial buildings. Temples of various architectural styles and imperial gardens blend harmoniously into a landscape of lakes, pastureland and forests. In addition to its aesthetic interest, the Mountain Resort is a rare historic vestige of the final development of feudal society in China. La résidence de montagne, palais d'été de la dynastie Qing dans la province du Hebei, fut construite de 1703 à 1792. C'est un vaste ensemble de palais et de bâtiments administratifs et cérémoniels, de temples aux architectures très variées et de jardins impériaux s'intégrant subtilement à un paysage de lacs, de pâturages et de forêts. Outre son intérêt esthétique, la résidence de montagne est un témoignage historique précieux sur le développement final de la société féodale en Chine.

1994- Historic Ensemble of the Potala Palace, Lhasa / Ensemble historique du Palais du Potala, Lhassa (Criteria C (i) (iv) (vi)

The Potala Palace, winter palace of the Dalai Lama since the 7th century, symbolizes Tibetan Buddhism and its central role in the traditional administration of Tibet. The complex, comprising the White and Red Palaces with their ancillary buildings, is built on Red Mountain in the centre of Lhasa Valley, at an altitude of 3,700m. Also founded in the 7th century, the Jokhang Temple Monastery is an exceptional Buddhist religious complex. Norbulingka, the Dalai Lama's former summer palace, constructed in the 18th century, is a masterpiece of Tibetan art. The beauty and originality of the architecture of these three sites, their rich ornamentation and harmonious integration in a striking landscape, add to their historic and religious interest. Le palais du Potala, palais d'hiver du dalaï-lama depuis le VIIe siècle, symbolise le bouddhisme tibétain et son rôle central dans l'administration traditionnelle au Tibet. Le complexe s'élève sur la Colline rouge au centre de la vallée de Lhasa, à 3 700 m d'altitude. Il comprend le Palais blanc et le Palais rouge, et leurs bâtiments annexes. Fondé également au VIIe siècle, le monastère du Temple de Jokhang est un complexe religieux bouddhiste exceptionnel. Norbulingka, le palais d'été du dalaï-lama, construit au XVIIIe siècle, est un chef d'œuvre de l'art tibétain. La beauté et l'originalité de l'architecture de ces trois sites, leur riche décoration et leur intégration harmonieuse dans un paysage admirable s'ajoutent à leur intérêt historique et religieux.

1996- Mount Emei Scenic Area, including Leshan Giant Buddha Scenic Area / Paysage panoramique du mont Emei, incluant le paysage panoramique du grand Bouddha de Leshan (Criteria N (iv) C (iv) (vi) The first Buddhist temple in China was built here in Sichuan Province in the 1st century A.D. in the beautiful surroundings of the summit Mount Emei. The addition of other temples turned the site into one of Buddhism's holiest sites. Over the centuries, the cultural treasures grew in number. The most remarkable is the Giant Buddha of Leshan, carved out of a hillside in the 8th century and looking down on the confluence of three rivers. At 71 m high, it is the largest Buddha in the world. Mount Emei is also notable for its exceptionally diverse vegetation, ranging from subtropical to subalpine pine forests. Some of the trees there are more than 1,000 years old.

Justification for Inscription The Committee decided to inscribe the nominated property under cultural criteria (iv) and (vi) considering the area of Mt. Emei is of exceptional cultural significance, since it is the place where Buddhism first became established on Chinese territory and from where it spread widely throughout the east. It is also an area of natural beauty into which the human element has been integrated, and natural criterion (iv) for its high plant species diversity with a large number of endemic species. It also underlined the importance of the link between the tangible and intangible, the natural and the cultural.

C'est ici, dans le paysage d'une grande beauté sur du mont Emei, dans le Sichuan, que fut édifié au Ier siècle le premier temple bouddhiste chinois. La multiplication ultérieure des temples fit de ce site l'un des principaux lieux sacrés du bouddhisme. Au cours des siècles, les trésors culturels s'y accumulèrent, le plus saisissant étant le grand Bouddha de Leshan érigé au VIIIe siècle. Cette statue

44

taillée à flanc de colline, qui domine le confluent de trois fleuves de ses 71 m de haut, est la plus grande statue de Bouddha du monde. Le mont Emei se distingue également par la grande diversité de sa flore, depuis les zones végétales subtropicales jusqu'aux forêts de conifères subalpines, dont certains arbres ont plus de 1 000 ans.

Justification d'inscription Le Comité a décidé d'inscrire le bien proposé sur la base des critères culturels (iv) et (vi), considérant que la portée culturelle de la région du Mont Emei est exceptionnelle: il s'agit en effet du premier lieu d'établissement du bouddhisme sur le territoire chinois, à partir duquel il a largement rayonné dans tout l'Extrême- Orient. Ce site est également remarquable par sa beauté naturelle, au sein de laquelle l'élément humain s'est habilement et subtilement intégré, et sur la base du critère naturel (iv) pour la grande diversité de sa flore et le nombre important d'espèces endémiques. Il a également souligné l'importance des liens entre le tangible et l'intangible, le naturel et le culturel. Bibliography:

1999- Mount Wuyi / Mont Wuyi (Criteria N (iii) (iv) C (iii) (vi) Mount Wuyi is the most outstanding area for biodiversity conservation in south-east China and a refuge for a large number of ancient, relict species, many of them endemic to China. The serene beauty of the dramatic gorges of the Nine Bend River, with its numerous temples and monasteries, many now in ruins, provided the setting for the development and spread of neo-Confucianism, which has been influential in the cultures of East Asia since the 11th century. In the 1st century B.C. a large administrative capital was built at nearby Chengcun by the Han dynasty rulers. Its massive walls enclose an archaeological site of great significance.

Justification for Inscription Natural criteria (iii) and (iv) : Mount Wuyi is one of the most outstanding subtropical forests in the world. It is the largest, most representative example of a largely intact forest encompassing the diversity of the Chinese Subtropical Forest and the South Chinese Rainforest. It acts as a refuge for a large number of ancient, relict plant species, many of them endemic to China and contains large numbers of reptile, amphibian and insect species. The riverine landscape of Nine-Bend Stream (lower gorge) is also of exceptional scenic quality in its juxtaposition of smooth rock cliffs with clear, deep water. Cultural criteria (iii) and (vi) : Criterion (iii): Mount Wuyi is a landscape of great beauty that has been protected for more than twelve centuries. It contains a series of exceptional archaeological sites, including the Han City established in the 1st century BC and a number of temples and study centres associated with the birth of Neo-Confucianism in the 11th century AD. Criterion (vi): Mount Wuyi was the cradle of Neo-Confucianism, a doctrine that played a dominant role in the countries of Eastern and South-Eastern Asia for many centuries and influenced philosophy and government over much of the world.

La région du mont Wuyi est considérée comme la plus exceptionnelle pour la conservation de la biodiversité dans le sud-est de la Chine. C'est un refuge pour bon nombre d'espèces réliques, dont beaucoup sont endémiques de la Chine. La beauté sereine des gorges spectaculaires de la rivière aux Neuf Coudes avec ses nombreux temples et monastères – dont plusieurs sont en ruine – a été le cadre du développement du néo-confucianisme qui s'est répandu et a fortement influencé les cultures d'Asie orientale à partir du XIe siècle. Au Ier siècle av. J.-C., la localité voisine de Chengcun a été une grande capitale administrative, construite par la dynastie Han. Derrière ses murailles massives se trouve un site archéologique de grande importance.

Justification d'inscription Critères naturels (iii) et (iv) : Le mont Wuyi est une des forêts subtropicales les plus exceptionnelles du monde. C’est l’exemple le plus grand et le plus représentatif d’une forêt essentiellement vierge qui comprend la diversité de la forêt subtropicale chinoise et de la forêt ombrophile chinoise du sud. Elle sert de refuge à un grand nombre d’espèces de plantes reliques et anciennes qui, pour beaucoup, sont endémiques de Chine et contient de nombreuses espèces de reptiles, d’amphibiens et d’insectes. Les paysages fluviaux de la rivière aux neuf méandres (basse gorge) sont également de qualité exceptionnelle car ils se détachent sur fond de falaises rocheuses érodées tombant dans des eaux claires et profondes. Critères culturels (iii) et (vi): Critère (iii): Le Mont Wuyi est un paysage de grande beauté qui a été protégé pendant plus de douze siècles. Il contient une série de sites archéologiques exceptionnels, dont la cité Han établie au 1er siècle avant J.C. et un nombre de temples et de centres d’études associés avec la naissance du Néo-confucianisme au 11e siècle de notre ère.

50

Critère (vi): Le Mont Wuyi a été le foyer du Néo-confucianisme, une doctrine qui a joué un rôle dominant dans les pays de l’Asie de l’est et du sud-est durant de nombreux siècles et qui a influencé la philosophie et le gouvernement d’une grande partie du Monde. Bibliography:

They provide outstanding evidence of the harmonious synthesis of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (i) The Dazu carvings represent the pinnacle of Chinese rock art for their high aesthetic quality and their diversity of style and subject matter. Criterion (ii) Tantric Buddhism from India and the Chinese Taoist and Confucian beliefs came together at Dazu to create a highly original and influential manifestation of spiritual harmony . Criterion (iii) The eclectic nature of religious belief in later Imperial China is given material expression in the exceptional artistic heritage of the Dazu rock art.

Les montagnes abruptes de la région de Dazu abritent une série exceptionnelle de sculptures rupestres datant du IXe au XIIIe siècle. Celles-ci sont remarquables à plusieurs égards : leur grande qualité esthétique, la richesse de leurs sujets, tant séculiers que religieux, et l'éclairage qu'elles portent sur la vie quotidienne en Chine à cette époque. Elles témoignent aussi de façon éclatante de la fusion harmonieuse du bouddhisme, du taoïsme et du confucianisme.

Justification d'inscription Critère i De par leur grande qualité esthétique, la diversité de leur style et de leurs sujets, les sculptures de Dazu représentent l’apogée de l’art rupestre chinois. Critère ii Le bouddhisme tantrique originaire d’Inde et les croyances taoïstes et confucianistes chinoises se sont réunis à Dazu pour créer une manifestation hautement originale d’harmonie spirituelle, dont l’influence a été énorme. Critère iii La nature éclectique des croyances religieuses de la fin de la Chine impériale trouve son expression dans le patrimoine artistique exceptionnel de l’art rupestre de Dazu.

2003- Three Parallel Rivers of Yunnan Protected Areas / Aires protégées des trois fleuves parallèls au Yunnan (Criteria N (i) (ii) (iii) (iv)

Consisting of eight geographical clusters of protected areas within the boundaries of the Three Parallel Rivers National Park, in the mountainous north-west of Yunnan Province, the 1.7 million hectare site

57

features sections of the upper reaches of three of the great rivers of Asia: the Yangtze (Jinsha), Mekong and Salween run roughly parallel, north to south, through steep gorges which, in places, are 3,000 m deep and are bordered by glaciated peaks more than 6,000 m high. The site is an epicentre of Chinese biodiversity. It is also one of the richest temperate regions of the world in terms of biodiversity.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (i): The property is of outstanding value for displaying the geological history of the last 50 million years associated with the collision of the Indian Plate with the Eurasian Plate, the closure of the ancient Tethys Sea, and the uplifting of the Himalaya Range and the Tibetan Plateau. These were major geological events in the evolution of the land surface of Asia and they are on-going. The diverse rock types within the site record this history and, in addition, the range of karst, granite monolith, and Danxia sandstone landforms in the alpine zone include some of the best of their type in the mountains of the world. Criterion (ii): The dramatic expression of ecological processes in the Three Parallel Rivers site has resulted from a mix of geological, climatic and topographical effects. First, the location of the area within an active orographic belt has resulted in a wide range of rock substrates from igneous (four types) through to various sedimentary types including limestones, sandstones and conglomerates. An exceptional range of topographical features - from gorges to karst to glaciated peaks -- is associated with the site being at a “collision point” of tectonic plates. Add the fact that the area was a Pleistocene refugium and is located at a biogeographical convergence zone (i.e. with temperate and tropical elements) and the physical foundations for evolution of its high biodiversity are all present. Along with the landscape diversity with a steep gradient of almost 6000m vertical, a monsoon climate affects most of the area and provides another favourable ecological stimulus that has allowed the full range of temperate Palearctic biomes to develop. Criterion (iii): Superlative natural phenomena or natural beauty and aesthetic importance The deep, parallel gorges of the Jinsha, Lancang and Nu Jiang are the outstanding natural feature of the site; while large sections of the three rivers lie just outside the site boundaries, the river gorges are nevertheless the dominant scenic element in the area. High mountains are everywhere, with the glaciated peaks of the Meili, Baima and Haba Snow Mountains providing a spectacular scenic skyline. The Mingyongqia Glacier is a notable natural phemonenon, descending to 2700 m altitude from Mt Kawagebo (6740 m), and is claimed to be the gla cier descending to the lowest altitude for such a low latitude (28° N) in the northern hemisphere. Other outstanding scenic landforms are the alpine karst (especially the 'stone moon' in the Moon Mountain Scenic Area above the Nu Jiang Gorge) and the 'tortoise shell' weathering of the alpine Danxia. Criterion (iv): Biodiversity and threatened species Northwest Yunnan is the area of richest biodiversity in China and may be the most biologically diverse temperate region on earth. The site encompasses most of the natural habitats in the Hengduan Mountains, one of the world's most important remaining areas for the conservation of the earth's biodiversity. The outstanding topographic and climatic diversity of the site, coupled with its location at the juncture of the East Asia, Southeast Asia, and Tibetan Plateau biogeographical realms and its function as a N-S corridor for the movement of plants and animals (especially during the ice ages), marks it as a truly unique landscape, which still retains a high degree of natural character despite thousands of years of human habitation. As the last remaining stronghold for an extensive suite of rare and endangered plants and animals, the site is of outstanding universal value.

Composé de huit groupes d’aires protégées contenues dans le Parc national des trois fleuves parallèles, dans le nord-ouest montagneux de la province du Yunnan, ce site de 1,7 million d’hectares comprend des secteurs du cours supérieur de trois des grands fleuves d’Asie : le Yangtze, le Mékong et le Salouen. Ces fleuves coulent pratiquement en parallèle, du nord vers le sud, à travers des gorges vertigineuses qui peuvent atteindre 3 000 mètres de profondeur et sont bordés de hauts sommets dont les pics glacés dépassent 6 000 mètres. Cette région tempérée est la plus riche du monde en diversité biologique, et elle est également un épicentre de la biodiversité en Chine.

58

Justification d'inscription Critère (i) : histoire de la terre et processus géologiques Le site a une valeur exceptionnelle du point de vue de l’histoire géologique des derniers 50 millions d’années, associée à la collision entre la plaque indienne et la plaque eurasienne, la fermeture de l’ancienne Tethys et le relèvement de la chaîne de l’Himalaya et du Plateau tibétain. Ces événements géologiques ont joué un rôle majeur dans l’évolution des terres de l’Asie et ils se poursuivent. Les divers types de roches du site rappellent cette histoire. En outre, les formes de relief de karst, de monolithes granitiques et de grès Danxia de la zone alpine sont parmi les meilleurs exemples de reliefs de ce type au monde. L’UICN considère que le site proposé remplit ce critère. Critère (ii) : processus écologiques L’expression spectaculaire des processus écologiques dans le site des trois fleuves parallèles provient d’un mélange d’effets géologiques, climatiques et topographiques. Premièrement, l’emplacement du site dans une ceinture orographique active est à l’origine de la vaste gamme de substrats rocheux – des roches magmatiques (quatre types) aux divers types sédimentaires, y compris les calcaires, les grès et les conglomérats. Une gamme exceptionnelle de caractéristiques topographiques – des gorges aux pics couverts de glace en passant par le karst – est associée au site car il se trouve an point de collision entre les plaques tectoniques. Si ajoute à cela que la région était un refuge du pléistocène et se trouve dans une zone de convergence biogéographique (c’est-à-dire avec des éléments tempérés et tropicaux), les fondations physiques de l’évolution de sa riche biodiversité sont toutes présentes. Parallèlement à la diversité du paysage présentant un gradient vertigineux de près de 6000 m vertical, un climat de mousson affecte la majeure partie de la région et fournit un autre stimulus écologique favorable qui a permis à toute la gamme des biomes tempérés du Paléarctique de se développer. L’UICN considère que le site proposé remplit ce critère. Critère (iii) : phénomènes naturels éminemment remarquables ou de beauté exceptionnelle Les gorges profondes et parallèles du Jinsha, du Lancang et du Nu Jiang sont les caractéristiques naturelles exceptionnelles du site; de vastes secteurs des trois fleuves se trouvent juste en dehors des limites du site mais les gorges des fleuves sont cependant l’élément panoramique dominant. Les hautes montagnes sont partout avec les pics glacés du Meili, du Baima et du Haba qui offrent un panorama spectaculaire. Le glacier du Mingyongqia est un phénomène naturel remarquable qui descend jusqu’à 2700 m d’altitude depuis le mont Kawagebo (6740 m) et serait le glacier descendant le plus bas à cette latitude (28° N) dans l’hémisphère nord. D’autres formes de relief exceptionne lles sont le karst alpin (en particulier la «pierre de lune» dans la zone panoramique de la montagne de la Lune au-dessus de la gorge du Nu Jiang) et le modelé érodé en «écaille de tortue» du Danxia alpin. L’UICN considère que le site proposé remplit ce critère. Critère (iv) : diversité biologique et espèces menacées Le nord-ouest du Yunnan est la région de Chine présentant la plus riche biodiversité et c’est peut-être la région tempérée la plus diverse de la terre sur le plan biologique. Ce site comprend la plupart des habitats naturels de la chaîne du Hengduan, une des dernières régions du monde les plus importantes pour la conservation de la biodiversité terrestre. La diversité topographique et climatique extraordinaire du site, associée à son emplacement à la jonction des domaines biogéographiques d’Asie de l’Est, d’Asie du Sud-Est et du Plateau tibétain et sa fonction de corridor nord-sud pour le mouvement des plantes et des animaux (en particulier durant les âges glaciaires) en fait un paysage réellement unique qui conserve encore beaucoup de caractéristiques naturelles malgré des milliers d’années d’occupation par l’homme. En tant que dernier bastion d’un assemblage énorme de plantes et d’animaux rares et en danger, le site a une valeur universelle exceptionnelle. L’UICN considère que le site proposé remplit ce critère.

2004- Capital Cities and Tombs of the Ancient Koguryo Kingdom /

Capitales et tombes de l’ancien royaume de Koguryo (Criteria C (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (v)

59

The site includes archaeological remains of three cities and 40 tombs: Wunu Mountain City, Guonei City and Wandu Mountain City, 14 tombs are imperial, 26 of nobles. All belong to the Koguryo culture, named after the dynasty that ruled over parts of northern China and the northern half of the Korean Peninsula from 37 BC to 668 AD. Wunu Mountain City is only partly excavated. Guonei City, within the modern city of Ji’an, played the role of a supporting capital after the main Koguryo capital moved to Pyongyang. Wandu Mountain City, one of the capitals of the Koguryo Kingdom, contains many vestiges including a large palace and 37 tombs. Some of the tombs have elaborate ceilings, designed to roof wide spaces without columns and carry the heavy load of a stone or earth tumulus (mound) which was placed above them.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (i): The tombs represent a masterpiece of the human creative genius in their wall paintings and structures. Criterion (ii): The Capital Cities of the Koguryo Kingdom are an early example of mountain cities, later imitated by neighbouring cultures. The tombs, particularly the important stele and a long inscription in one of the tombs, show the impact of Chinese culture on the Koguryo (who did not develop their own writing). The paintings in the tombs, while showing artistic skills and specific style, are also an example for strong impact from other cultures. Criterion (iii):The Capital Cities and Tombs of the Ancient Koguryo Kingdom represent exceptional testimony to the vanished Koguryo civilization. Criterion (iv): The system of capital cities represented by Guonei City and Wandu Mountain City also influenced the construction of later capitals built by the Koguryo regime; the Koguryo tombs provide outstanding examples of the evolution of piled-stone and earthen tomb construction. Criterion (v): The capital cities of the Koguryo Kingdom represent a perfect blending of human creation and nature whether with the rocks or with forests and rivers.

Ce site comprend les vestiges archéologiques de 3 villes et 40 tombeaux : la ville de montagne de Wunu, la ville de Guonei et la ville de montagne de Wandu , 14 tombeaux impériaux et 26 tombeaux de nobles. Tous appartiennent à la culture Koguryo qui doit son nom à la dynastie qui régna sur une partie de la Chine septentrionale et sur la moitié septentrionale de la péninsule coréenne entre 37 avant J.C. et 668 après J.C.. La ville de montagne de Wunu n’a été que partiellement dégagée par les fouilles. La ville de Guonei, située sur le territoire de la ville moderne de Ji-an, joua le rôle de capitale secondaire après le transfert de la capitale principale de Koguryo à Pyongyang. La ville de montagne de Wandu, l’une des capitales du royaume de Koguryo, contient de nombreux vestiges dont un vaste palais et 37 tombeaux. Certains tombeaux renferment des plafonds à l’architecture savante, conçus pour coiffer de vastes espaces sans colonnes et supporter la lourde dalle de pierre ou le tertre qui les surmontait.

Justification d'inscription Critère (i) : Les tombes représentent un chef d’oeuvre du génie créateur humain pour leurs peintures murales et leurs structures. Critère (ii) : Les Capitales et tombes de l’ancien royaume de Koguryo sont un premier exemple de villes de montagne, plus tard imité par des cultures voisines. Les tombes, et en particulier la grande stèle et une longue inscription sur l’une des tombes, montrent l’influence de la culture chinoise sur le peuple de Koguryo (qui n’a jamais développé sa propre écriture). Les peintures à l’intérieur des tombes témoignent de compétences artistiques et d’un style propre et sont aussi un exemple d’influence importante sur d’autres cultures. Critère (iii) : Les capitales et les tombes de l’ancien royaume de Koguryo constituent un témoignage exceptionnel de la civilisation disparue de Koguryo.

60

Critère (iv) : Le système des capitales, représenté par la ville de Guonei et la ville de montagne de Wandu, a également influencé la construction ultérieure d’autres capitales par le régime de Koguryo ; les tombes de Koguryo constituent des exemples exceptionnels de l’évolution de la construction funéraire en dalles de pierre empilées surmontées de terre. Critère (v) : Les capitales du royaume de Koguryo représentent une fusion parfaite de la création humaine et de la nature - rochers, forêts et fleuves. Bibliography:

2004- Complex of Koguryo Tombs / Ensemble des tombes de Koguryo (Criteria C (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) The site includes several groups and individual tombs - totalling about 30 individual graves - from the later period of the Koguryo Kingdom, one of the strongest kingdoms in northeast China and half of the Korean peninsula between the 3rd century BC and 7th century AD. The tombs, many with beautiful wall paintings, are almost the only remains of this culture. Only about 90 out of more than 10,000 Koguryo tombs discovered in China and Korea so far, have wall paintings. Almost half of these tombs are located on this site and they are thought to have been made for the burial of kings, members of the royal family and the aristocracy. These paintings offer a unique testimony to daily life of this period.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (i): The wall paintings of the Koguryo Tombs are masterpieces of the culture and period of the Koguryo kingdom; the construction of the tombs demonstrates ingenious engineering solutions. Criterion (ii): The special burial customs of the Koguryo culture had an important influence on other cultures in the region, including those in Japan. Criterion (iii): The Koguryo Tombs are an exceptional testimony of the Koguryo culture, its burial customs as well as its daily life and beliefs. Criterion (iv): The complex of Koguryo Tombs is an important example of burial typology.

Ensemble des tombes de Koguryo. Ce site comprend de nombreuses tombes, en groupes ou isolées (une trentaine), datant de la dernière période du Royaume Koguryo. Ces tombes, dont beaucoup sont ornées de splendides peintures murales, constituent presque les seuls vestiges laissés par cette culture. Sur les quelque 10 000 tombes Koguryo découvertes jusqu’à présent en Chine et en Corée, 90 seulement comportent des peintures murales. Environ la moitié d’entre elles sont situées sur ce site ; on pense qu’elles étaient destinées aux rois ainsi qu’aux membres de la famille royale et de la noblesse. Ces peintures offrent un témoignage unique de la vie quotidienne de l’époque. Justification d'inscription

Critère (iv) : L’ensemble des Tombes de Koguryo est un exemple important de typologie funéraire. Bibliography:

1983-Ajanta Caves / Grottes d'Ajanta (Criteria C (i) (ii) (iii) (vi)

The first Buddhist cave monuments at Ajanta date from the 2nd and 1st centuries B.C. During the Gupta period (5th and 6th centuries A.D.), many more richly decorated caves were added to the original group. The paintings and sculptures of Ajanta, considered masterpieces of Buddhist religious art, have had a considerable artistic influence.

Justification for Inscription The Committee recommended that the authorities take all possible safeguarding measures, especially as concerns constructions on the summit of the cliff which could be detrimental for the site.

À un groupe de monuments rupestres bouddhiques des IIe et Ier siècles av. J.-C. sont venues s'ajouter, à l'époque gupta (Ve et VIe siècles), des grottes ornées encore plus vastes et plus riches. Les peintures et les sculptures d'Ajanta sont des chefs-d'œuvre de l'art religieux bouddhique qui ont exercé un rayonnement considérable.

1983- Ellora Caves / Grottes d'Ellora (Criteria C (i) (iii) (vi) These 34 monasteries and temples, extending over more than 2 km, were dug side by side in the wall of a high basalt cliff, not far from Aurangabad, in Maharashtra. Ellora, with its uninterrupted sequence of monuments dating from A.D. 600 to 1000, brings the civilization of ancient India to life. Not only is the Ellora complex a unique artistic creation and a technological exploit but, with its sanctuaries devoted to Buddhism, Hinduism and Jainism, it illustrates the spirit of tolerance that was characteristic of ancient India. Justification for Inscription

The Committee recommended that the authorities establish a protection zone which would safeguard the surrounding landscape and the cliff, and provide a map indicating the delimitation of this zone.

Trente-quatre monastères et temples ont été creusés en succession serrée dans la paroi d'une haute falaise basaltique, non loin d'Aurangabad, contribuant à faire revivre une brillante civilisation ancienne dans une séquence ininterrompue de monuments datables de 600 à 1000. L'ensemble d'Ellora est une réalisation artistique unique et un tour de force technique. Avec ses sanctuaires consacrés respectivement au bouddhisme, au brahmanisme et au jaïnisme, il illustre l'esprit de tolérance caractéristique de l'Inde ancienne.

1985- Kaziranga National Park / Parc national de Kaziranga (Criteria N (ii) (iv)

In the heart of Assam, this park is one of the last areas in eastern India undisturbed by a human presence. It is inhabited by the world's largest population of one-horned rhinoceroses, as well as many mammals, including tigers, elephants, panthers and bears, and thousands of birds. En plein cœur de l'Assam, le parc de Kaziranga, l'une des dernières zones de l'Inde du Nord qui n'aient pas été modifiées par l'homme, abrite la plus importante population de rhinocéros unicornes du monde, ainsi que de nombreux autres mammifères – tigres, éléphants, panthères, ours – et des milliers d'oiseaux. 1985- Manas Wildlife Sanctuary / Sanctuaire de faune de Manas (Criteria N (ii) (iii) (iv) On a gentle slope in the foothills of the Himalayas, where wooded hills give way to alluvial grasslands and tropical forests, the Manas sanctuary is home to a great variety of wildlife, including many endangered species, such as the tiger, pygmy hog, Indian rhinoceros and Indian elephant.

Inscription on the List of World Heritage in Danger: 1992 Threats to the Site: The Committee decided to include this site on the World Heritage in Danger List in 1992, when it was invaded by militants of the Bodo tribe in Assam. Damage to the sanctuary was estimated at more than two million US dollars. The site's infrastructure suffered considerable damage during 1992-93. Political instability seems to have led to poaching during this period of thirty-three rhinos during 1989-1992. A monitoring mission jointly undertaken by the Government of India and the UNESCO World Heritage Centre in January 1997 confirmed the extensive damage to Park infrastructure and decrease in the population of some species, particularly the greater one-horned rhino. The Government of India, the State Government of Assam and the Park authorities have elaborated a $US 2,35 million rehabilitation plan which began to be implemented in 1997 and is progressing satisfactorily. And while security conditions in and around Manas have improved, the threat of insurgency still prevails in the State of Assam and militants often

traverse the sanctuary. Nevertheless, conditions for site- protection and the relationship with local villagers appear to be improving.

Dans une zone des contreforts de l'Himalaya où alternent collines boisées, prairies alluviales et forêts tropicales, le sanctuaire de Manas abrite une faune d'une extrême richesse qui comprend de nombreuses espèces menacées, comme le tigre, le sanglier nain, ainsi que le rhinocéros et l'éléphant indiens

Inscription de biens sur la Liste du Patrimoine Mondial en péril: 1992 Menaces sur le bien: Le Comité a décidé d'inclure ce site sur la Liste du patrimoine mondial en péril en 1992, lorsqu'il a été envahi par des militants de la tribu Bodo de l'Assam. Les dommages causés au Sanctuaire ont été évalués à plus de deux millions de dollars des Etats-Unis. L'infrastructure du site a subi des dégâts considérables en 1992-1993. L'instabilité politique semble avoir entraîné le braconnage de trente-trois rhinocéros au cours de cette période. Une mission de suivi entreprise conjointement par le gouvernement indien et le Centre du patrimoine mondial en janvier 1997 a confirmé l'étendue des dommages causés à l'infrastructure du Parc et la diminution de la population de certaines espèces, en particulier le grand rhinocéros à une corne. Le gouvernement indien, le gouvernement de l'Etat d'Assam et les autorités du Parc ont établi un plan de réhabilitation de 2,35 millions de dollars des Etats- Unis dont la mise en oeuvre a débuté en 1997 et qui progresse de façon satisfaisante. Malgré une amélioration des conditions de sécurité à Manas et aux alentours, la menace d'insurrection est toujours bien présente dans l'Etat d'Assam et des militants traversent souvent le Sanctuaire. La situation en matière de protection du site et les relations avec les villageois semblent cependant s'améliorer.

1985- Keoladeo National Park / Parc national de Keoladeo (Criteria N (iv)

This former duck-hunting reserve of the Maharajas is one of the major wintering areas for large numbers of aquatic birds from Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, China and Siberia. Some 364 species of birds, including the rare Siberian crane, have been recorded in the park. Ancienne réserve princière de chasse au canard, le parc national de Keoladeo reste un lieu d'hivernage majeur pour des myriades d'oiseaux d'eau venus d'Afghanistan, du Turkménistan, de Chine et de Sibérie. On y a dénombré 364 espèces d'oiseaux, dont la rare grue sibérienne.

1986- Churches and Convents of Goa / Églises et couvents de Goa

Criteria C (ii) (iv) (vi) The churches and convents of Goa, the former capital of the Portuguese Indies – particularly the Church of Bom Jesus, which contains the tomb of St Francis-Xavier – illustrate the evangelization of Asia. These monuments were influential in spreading forms of Manueline, Mannerist and Baroque art in all the countries of Asia where missions were established.

Ancienne capitale des Indes portugaises, Goa a conservé un ensemble d'églises et de couvents qui illustrent l'activité des missionnaires en Asie, en particulier l'église du Bom Jesus où se trouve le tombeau de saint François Xavier. Ces monuments ont exercé une influence dans tous les pays de mission d'Asie, diffusant à la fois les modèles de l'art manuélin, du maniérisme et du baroque.

1986- Khajuraho Group of Monuments / Ensemble monumental de Khajuraho (Criteria C (i) (iii) The temples at Khajuraho were built during the Chandella dynasty, which reached its apogee between 950 and 1050. Only about 20 temples remain; they fall into three distinct groups and belong to two different religions – Hinduism and Jainism. They strike a perfect balance between architecture and sculpture. The Temple of Kandariya is decorated with a profusion of sculptures that are among the greatest masterpieces of Indian art. Œuvre de la dynastie des Chandella, qui connut son apogée entre 950 et 1050, les temples de Khajuraho dont il ne subsiste plus qu'une vingtaine se répartissent en trois groupes distincts. Ils appartiennent à deux religions différentes, l'hindouisme et le jaïnisme et réalisent une synthèse exemplaire entre l'architecture et la sculpture. C'est ainsi que le temple de Kandariya est décoré d'une profusion de sculptures qui comptent parmi les plus grands chefs-d'œuvre de la plastique indienne.

1986- Group of Monuments at Hampi / Ensemble monumental de Hampi (Criteria C (i) (iii) (iv)

The austere, grandiose site of Hampi was the last capital of the last great Hindu Kingdom of Vijayanagar. Its fabulously rich princes built Dravidian temples and palaces which won the admiration of travellers between the 14th and 16th centuries. Conquered by the Deccan Muslim confederacy in 1565, the city was pillaged over a period of six months before being abandoned.

Inscription on the List of World Heritage in Danger: 1999 Threats to the Site: The inclusion of the Groups of Monuments at Hampi on the List of World Heritage in Danger was prompted by the construction of two suspension bridges which dominate the natural environment and threaten the World Heritage site's integrity. The construction of a road towards one of the bridges will result in a major increase in heavy goods traffic and has already resulted in the dismantling and reconstruction of an important historic monument - a mandapa (a pillared stone rest-house) within the borders of the site. This dislocation signifies serious problems in the implementation of cultural heritage policies and regulations.

Hampi est le site, austère et grandiose, de la dernière capitale du dernier grand royaume hindou de Vijayanagar, dont les princes extrêmement riches firent édifier des temples dravidiens et des palais qui firent l'admiration des voyageurs entre le XIVe et le XVIe siècle. Conquise par la Confédération islamique du Deccan en 1565, la ville fut livrée au pillage pendant six mois, puis abandonnée.

Inscription de biens sur la Liste du Patrimoine Mondial en péril: 1999 Menaces sur le bien: L'inscription de l'Ensemble monumental de Hampi est motivée par la construction de deux ponts suspendus qui dominent l'environnement naturel et menacent l'intégrité du site. La construction de la route menant à l'un des ponts va se traduire par une forte augmentation du trafic de camions et elle a déjà provoqué le démontage et la reconstruction d'un important monument historique, une mandapa (maison de repos en pierre comportant des piliers) située dans le périmètre du site inscrit. Ce démontage dénote de sérieux problèmes dans la mise en oeuvre de la politique et de la réglementation en matière de patrimoine culturel.

1987- Group of Monuments at Pattadakal / Ensemble de monuments de Pattadakal (Criteria C (iii) (iv) Pattadakal, in Karnataka, represents the high point of an eclectic art which, in the 7th and 8th centuries under the Chalukya dynasty, achieved a harmonious blend of architectural forms from northern and southern India. An impressive series of nine Hindu temples, as well as a Jain sanctuary, can be seen there. One masterpiece from the group stands out – the Temple of Virupaksha, built c. 740 by Queen Lokamahadevi to commemorate her husband's victory over the kings from the South. Pattadakal, dans l'État du Karnâtaka, illustre l'apogée d'un art éclectique qui, aux VIIe et VIIIe siècles, sous l'égide de la dynastie des Châlukya, sut réaliser une heureuse synthèse des formes architecturales du nord et du sud de l'Inde. On y trouve une imposante série de neuf temples hindouistes, ainsi qu'un sanctuaire jaïn. Dans ce groupe se détache un pur chef-d'œuvre, le temple de Virûpâksha, élevé vers 740 par la reine Lokamahadevi pour commémorer la victoire de son époux sur les souverains du Sud.

1987 Great Living Chola Temples / Les grands temples vivants Chola (Criteria C (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) The great Temple of Tanjore (Thanjavur) was built between 1003 and 1010 in the reign of the great King Rajaraja, founder of the Chola Empire which stretched over all of South India and the neighbouring islands. Surrounded by two rectangular enclosures, the Brihadisvara Temple (built from blocks of granite and, in part, from bricks) is crowned with a pyramidal 13-storey tower, the vimana, standing 61 m high and topped with a bulb-shaped monolith. The walls of the temple are covered with rich sculptural decoration. Extension: Situated in the southern state of Tamil Nadu, the site includes the three great 11th and 12th century Chola Temples: the Brihadisvara temples of Thanjavur and Gangaikondacholisvaram, and the Airatesvara temple at Darasuram. Built by King Rajaraja, founder of the Chola Empire that encompassed the south of India and neighbouring islands and lasted until 1200 AD, the Brihadisvara temple is crowned by a pyramidal 65-m vimana, a sanctum tower. Its walls are covered with rich sculptural decoration. The second Brihadisvara temple complex built by Rajendra I, was completed in 1035. Its 53-m vimana has recessed corners and a graceful upward curving movement, contrasting with the straight and severe tower at Thanjavur. It has six pairs of massive, monolithic dvarapalas statues guarding the entrances and bronzes of remarkable beauty inside. The Airavatesvara temple complex, built by Rajaraja II, at Darasuram features a 24-m vimana and a stone image of Shiva. The temples testify to the Cholas brilliant achievements in architecture, sculpture, painting, and bronze casting.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (i): The three Chola temples of Southern India represent an outstanding creative achievement in the architectural conception of the pure form of the dravida type of temple. Criterion (ii): The Brihadisvara Temple at Thanjavur became the first great example of the Chola temples, followed by a development of which the other two properties also bear witness. Criterion (iii): The three Great Chola Temples are an exceptional and the most outstanding testimony to the development of the architecture of the Chola Empire and the Tamil civilisation in Southern India.

81

Criterion (iv): The Great Chola temples at Thanjavur, at Gangaikondacholapuram and Darasuram are outstanding examples of the architecture and the representation of the Chola ideology.

Justification d'inscription Critère (i) : Les trois temples Chola de l’Inde du Sud représentent une réussite créative remarquable dans la conception architecturale de la forme pure du type de temple dravidien. Critère (ii) : Le temple de Brihadisvara à Tanjore est le premier grand exemple des temples Chola, suivi d’un développement dont les deux autres biens apportent aussi un témoignage.

Critère (iii) : Les trois grands temples Chola apportent un témoignage exceptionnel et le plus remarquable sur le développement de l’architecture de l’Empire Chola et la civilisation tamoule en Inde du Sud.

Critère (iv) : Les grands temples Chola à Tanjore, Gangaikondacholapuram et Darasuram sont des exemples exceptionnels de l’architecture et de la représentation de l’idéologie Chola.

1999- Darjeeling Himalayan Railway (DHR) / Darjeeling Himalayan Railway (Criteria C (ii) (iv)

The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway is the first, and still the most outstanding, example of a hill passenger railway. Opened in 1881, it applied bold, ingenious engineering solutions to the problem of establishing an effective rail link across a mountainous terrain of great beauty. It is still fully operational and retains most of its original features.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (ii): The Darjeeling Himalayan Railway is an outstanding example of the influence of an innovative transportation system on the social and economic development of a multi-cultural region, which was to serve as a model for similar developments in many parts of the world. Criterion (iv): The development of railways in the 19th century had a profound influence on social and economic developments in many parts of the world. This process is illustrated in an exceptional and seminal fashion by the Darjeeling Himalayan Railway

Il s'agit du premier et du plus extraordinaire exemple de chemin de fer de montagne destiné aux voyageurs. Mis en service en 1881 dans une région d'une grande beauté, il a apporté d'audacieuses solutions d'ingénierie au problème de la construction d'une ligne de chemin de fer à travers une région montagneuse. Cette ligne est encore en service et la plupart de ses caractéristiques d'origine sont intactes.

Justification d'inscription Critère ii Le Darjeeling Himalayan Railway est un exemple éminent de l’influence que peut avoir un système de transport novateur sur le développement économique et social d’une région multiculturelle et qui a servi de modèle à de nombreux autres développements de ce type à travers le monde. Critère iv Le développement du chemin de fer au XIXe siècle a eu une profonde influence sur le développement économique et social dans de nombreuses partie du monde. Ce processus est illustré de manière exceptionnelle, riche et exemplaire par le Darjeeling Himalayan Railway.

2002- Mahabodhi Temple Complex at Bodh Gaya / Ensemble du temple de la Mahabodhi à Bodhgaya (Criteria C (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (vi)

The Mahabodhi Temple Complex is one of the four holy sites related to the life of the Lord Buddha, and particularly to the attainment of Enlightenment. The first temple was built by Emperor Asoka in the 3rd century B.C., and the present temple dates from the 5th or 6th centuries. It is one of the earliest Buddhist temples built entirely in brick, still standing in India, from the late Gupta period.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (i): The grand 50m high Mahabodhi Temple of the 5th-6th centuries is of immense importance, being one of the earliest temple constructions existing in the Indian sub-continent. It is one of the few representations of the architectural genius of the Indian people in constructing fully developed brick temples in that era. Criterion (ii) The Mahabodhi Temple, one of the few surviving examples of early brick structures in India, has had significant influence in the development of architecture over the centuries. Criterion (iii) The site of the Mahabodhi Temple provides exceptional records for the events associated with the life of Buddha and subsequent worship, particularly since Emperor Asoka built the first temple, the balustrades, and the memorial column. Criterion (iv) The present Temple is one of the earliest and most imposing structures built entirely in brick from the late Gupta period. The sculpted stone balustrades are an outstanding early example of sculptural reliefs in stone. Criterion (vi) The Mahabodhi Temple Complex in Bodh Gaya has direct association with the life of the Lord Buddha, being the place where He attained the supreme and perfect insight.

L'ensemble du temple de la Mahabodhi constitue l'un des quatre lieux saints associés à la vie du Bouddha et notamment à son Éveil. Le premier temple a été érigé par l'empereur Asoka au IIIe siècle av. J.C., alors que le temple actuel date du Ve ou VIe siècle. C'est l'un des plus anciens temples bouddhistes en Inde qui soit toujours debout, et l'un des rares temples de la fin de la période Gupta construits entièrement en briques.

Justification d'inscription Critère (i): Le grand temple de la Mahabodhi (5e - 6e siècle), 50 m de hauteur, est d'une importance immense, étant une des premières construction de temple sur le sous-continent indien. Il est une des rares représentation du génie architectural du peuple indien par la construction de temple en briques durant cette période. Critère (ii) Le temple de la Mahabodhi, l’un des rares exemples survivants de constructions anciennes en brique en Inde, a eu une influence importante sur le développement de l’architecture au fil des siècles.

87

Critère (iii) Le site du temple de la Mahabodhi offre un témoignage exceptionnel des événements associés à la vie du Bouddha et du culte dont il a été l’objet, en particulier depuis que l’empereur Asoka a construit le premier temple, les balustrades et la colonne commémorative. Critère (iv) Le temple actuel est un des plus anciens et des plus impressionnants édifices construits entièrement en briques datant de la période Gupta. Les balustrades sculptées en pierre sont un exemple remarquable des plus anciens bas-reliefs sculptés. Critère (vi) L’ensemble du temple de la Mahabodhi à Bodhgaya est directement lié à la vie du Bouddha, car c’est le lieu où il parvint à l’Éveil suprême et parfait.

2003-Rock Shelters of Bhimbetka / Abris sous-roche du Bhimbetka (Criteria C (iii) (v)

The Rock Shelters of Bhimbetka are in the foothills of the Vindhyan Mountains on the southern edge of the central Indian plateau. Within massive sandstone outcrops, above comparatively dense forest, are five clusters of natural rock shelters, displaying paintings that appear to date from the Mesolithic Period right through to the historical period. The cultural traditions of the inhabitants of the twenty-one villages adjacent to the site bear a strong resemblance to those represented in the rock paintings.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (iii): Bhimbetka reflects a long interaction between people and the landscape, as demonstrated in the quantity and quality of its rock art. Criterion (v): Bhimbetka is closely associated with a hunting and gathering economy as demonstrated in the rock art and in the relicts of this tradition in the local adivasi villages on the periphery of this site.

Les abris sous roche du Bhimbetka se trouvent au pied des monts Vindhyan, au sud du plateau de l’Inde centrale. Cinq groupes d’abris sous roche naturels sont situés au sein d’énormes affleurements de grès, au-dessus d’une forêt relativement dense, et contiennent des peintures qui paraissent commencer au mésolithique et se poursuivre sans interruption jusqu’à l’époque historique. Dans les vingt et un villages qui entourent le site, vivent des populations dont les traditions culturelles contemporaines rappellent celles dépeintes dans les peintures rupestres.

Justification d'inscription Critère (iii): Bhimbetka témoigne d’une longue interaction entre les peuples et le paysage, comme le démontrent la quantité et la qualité de ses peintures rupestres. Critère (v): Bhimbetka est étroitement lié à une économie de chasse et de cueillette dont témoignent l’art rupestre et les vestiges de cette tradition des villages adivasi locaux qui entourent ce site.

2004 Champaner-Pavagadh Archaeological Park / Parc archéologique de Champaner-Pavagadh (Criteria C (iii) (iv) (v) (vi)

A concentration of largely unexcavated archaeological, historic and living cultural heritage properties cradled in an impressive landscape which includes prehistoric (chalcolithic) sites, a hill fortress of an early Hindu capital, and remains of the 15th century capital of the state of Gujarat. The site also includes, among other vestiges, fortifications, palaces, religious buildings, residential precincts, and water installations, from the 8th to the 14th centuries. The Kalikamata Temple on top of the Pavagadh Hill is considered to be an important shrine, attracting large numbers of pilgrims throughout the year. The site is the only complete and unchanged Islamic pre-Mughal city.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (iii): The Champaner-Pavagadh Archaeological Park with its ancient Hindu architecture, temples and special water retaining installations together with its religious, military and agricultural structures, dating back to the regional Capital City built by Mehmud Begda in the 16th century, represents cultures which have disappeared. Criterion (iv): The structures represent a perfect blend of Hindu-Moslem architecture, mainly in the Great Mosque (Jami Masjid), which was a model for later mosque architecture in India. This special style comes from the significant period of regional sultanates. Criterion (v): The Champaner-Pavagadh Archaeological Park is an outstanding example of a very short living Capital, making the best use of its setting, topography and natural features. It is quite vulnerable due to abandonment, forest takeover and modern life. Criterion (vi): The Champaner-Pavagadh Archaeological Park is a place of worship and continuous pilgrimage for Hindu believers.

Cet ensemble conjugue des sites archéologiques, en grande partie encore enfouis, et un patrimoine culturel vivant s’inscrivant dans un paysage spectaculaire qui comprend des sites préhistoriques (Chalcolithique), la forteresse perchée sur une hauteur d’une ancienne capitale hindoue, et les vestiges de la ville qui fut au XVIe siècle la capitale de l’Etat du Gujarat. L’ensemble comprend également d’autres vestiges, dont des fortifications, des palais, des édifices religieux, des villas résidentielles et des installations hydrauliques, construits entre le VIIIe et le XIVe siècle. Le Temple de Kalikamata, au sommet de la colline du Pavagadh, considéré comme un sanctuaire important, attire tout au long de l’année de nombreux pèlerins. C’est l’unique ville islamique pré-moghole complète existante.

Justification d'inscription Critère (iii) : Le Parc archéologique de Champaner-Pavagadh -- avec son architecture hindoue ancienne, ses temples et ses installations spéciales de rétention d’eau, ainsi que ses constructions religieuses, militaires et agricoles remontant à la Ville capitale régionale édifiée par Mehmud Begda au XVIe siècle – est représentatif de cultures disparues. Critère (iv) : Les constructions représentent une fusion parfaite d’architecture hindo-musulmane, notamment dans la Grande Mosaquée (Jami Masjid), qui a ultérieurement servi de modèle à l’architecture des mosquées en Inde. Ce style particulier date de l’importante période des sultanats régionaux. Critère (v) : Le Parc archéologique de Champaner-Pavagadh est un exemple exceptionnel de capitale qui a peu duré, qui a tiré le meilleur parti de son cadre, de sa topographie et de ses caractéristiques naturelles. Elle est restée très vulnérable du fait de son abandon, de l’avancée de la forêt et de la vie moderne. Critère (vi) : Le Parc archéologique de Champaner-Pavagadh est un lieu de culte et de pèlerinage permanent pour les croyants hindouistes.

2004- Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (formerly Victoria Terminus) / Gare Chhatrapati Shivaji (anciennement gare Victoria) (Criteria C (ii) (iv) The Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus, formerly known as Victoria Terminus in Mumbai, is an outstanding example of Victorian Gothic Revival architecture in India, blended with themes deriving from Indian traditional architecture. The building, designed by the British architect F.W. Stevens, became the symbol of Bombay as the ‘Gothic City’ and the major international mercantile port of India. The terminal was built over ten years starting in 1878 according to a High Victorian Gothic design based on late medieval Italian models. Its remarkable stone dome, turrets, pointed arches, and eccentric ground plan are close to traditional Indian palace architecture. It is an outstanding example of the meeting of two cultures as British architects worked with Indian craftsmen to include Indian architectural tradition and idioms forging a new style unique to Bombay.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (ii): Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus of Mumbai (formerly Bombay) exhibits an important interchange of influences from Victorian Italianate Gothic Revival architecture, and from Indian traditional buildings. It became a symbol for Mumbai as a major mercantile port city on the Indian Subcontinent within the British Commonwealth.

Criterion (iv): Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus is an outstanding example of late 19th century railway architecture in the British Commonwealth, characterized by Victorian Gothic Revival and traditional Indian features, as well as its advanced structural and technical solutions.

La Gare Chhatrapati Shivaji, autrefois appelée Gare Victoria, à Mumbai, est un remarquable exemple d’architecture néo-gothique victorienne en Inde, mêlé à des éléments issus de l’architecture traditionnelle indienne. Le bâtiment, conçu par l’architecte britannique F.W. Stevens, allait devenir le symbole de Bombay, la « ville gothique » et le plus important port marchand d’Inde. Le terminal, dont la construction, commencée en 1878, dura dix ans, obéit à une conception du gothique victorien s’inspirant des modèles de la fin du Moyen-Age en Italie. Certains éléments remarquables comme le dôme de pierre, les tourelles, les arcs brisés et le plan excentré rappellent l’architecture des palais indiens traditionnels. C’est un exemple exceptionnel de la rencontre de deux cultures, les architectes britanniques ayant fait appel à des artisans indiens pour intégrer la tradition architecturale indienne afin de créer un style nouveau, propre à Bombay.

Justification d'inscription Critère (ii) : La gare Chhatrapati Shivaji de Mumbai (anciennement Bombay) témoigne d'un échange d'influences considérable de l’architecture de style néo-gothique victorien italianisant et de l’architecture traditionnelle indienne. Elle est devenue le symbole de Mumbai en tant que

principale ville portuaire de commerce du sous-continent indien dans le Commonwealth britannique. Critère (iv) : La gare Chhatrapati Shivaji est un exemple éminent de l’architecture ferroviaire de la fin du XIXe siècle dans le Commonwealth britannique, se distinguant par l’association de caractéristiques du style néo-gothique victorien et du style traditionnel de l’Inde ainsi que par des solutions structurelles et techniques avancées.

1991- Borobudur Temple Compounds / Ensemble de Borobudur (Criteria C (i) (ii) (vi) This famous Buddhist temple, dating from the 8th and 9th centuries, is located in central Java. It was built in three tiers: a pyramidal base with five concentric square terraces, the trunk of a cone with three circular platforms and, at the top, a monumental stupa. The walls and balustrades are decorated with fine low reliefs, covering a total surface area of 2,500 sq. m. Around the circular platforms are 72 openwork stupas, each containing a statue of the Buddha. The monument was restored with UNESCO's help in the 1970s. Ce célèbre temple bouddhique datant des VIIIe et IXe siècles est situé dans le centre de Java. Il est construit sur trois niveaux : une base pyramidale comprenant cinq terrasses carrées concentriques, surmontée d'un tronc de cône (trois plate-formes circulaires) et couronnée d'un stupa monumental. Les murs et les balustrades sont ornés de bas-reliefs couvrant une surface totale de 2 500 m2. Bordant les plate-formes circulaires, 72 stupas ajourés abritent autant de statues du Bouddha. Le temple a été restauré avec le concours de l'UNESCO dans les années 1970.

1991- Komodo National Park / Parc national de Komodo (Criteria N (iii) (iv) These volcanic islands are inhabited by a population of around 5,700 giant lizards, whose appearance and aggressive behaviour have led to them being called 'Komodo dragons'. They exist nowhere else in the world and are of great interest to scientists studying the theory of evolution. The rugged hillsides of dry savannah and pockets of thorny green vegetation contrast starkly with the brilliant white sandy beaches and the blue waters surging over coral. Ces îles volcaniques sont habitées par une population d'environ 5 700 lézards géants, dont l'apparence et le comportement agressif les ont fait surnommer les « dragons de Komodo ». On ne les trouve nulle part ailleurs et ils présentent un grand intérêt scientifique pour l'étude de l'évolution. Les collines rocailleuses couvertes d'une savane sèche parsemée d'épineux font un extraordinaire contraste avec les plages de sable à l'éclatante blancheur et les vagues bleues se brisant sur les coraux.

1996- Sangiran Early Man Site / Site des premiers hommes de Sangiran (Criteria C (iii) (vi) Excavations here from 1936 to 1941 led to the discovery of the first hominid fossil at this site. Later, 50 fossils of Meganthropus palaeo and Pithecanthropus erectus/Homo erectus were found – half of all the world's known hominid fossils. Inhabited for the past one and a half million years, Sangiran is one of the key sites for the understanding of human evolution.

Justification for Inscription The Committee decided to inscribe the nominated site under cultural criteria (iii) and (vi) as one of the key sites for the understanding of human evolution that admirably illustrates the development of Homo sapiens sapiens from the Lower Pleistocene to the present through the outstanding fossil and artefactual material that it has produced.

Une campagne de fouilles menée de 1936 à 1941 permit de mettre au jour le premier fossile d'hominidé de ce site. Des fouilles ultérieures ont exhumé cinquante fossiles de Meganthropus palaeo et Pithecanthropus erectus/Homo erectus, soit la moitié des fossiles d'hominidés connus aujourd'hui dans le monde. Occupé depuis 1,5 million d'années, Sangiran constitue l'un des sites clés pour la compréhension de l'évolution de l'homme.

Justification d'inscription Le Comité a décidé d'inscrire le bien proposé sur la base des critères culturels (iii) et (vi) car il est l'un des sites clé pour la compréhension de l'évolution de l'homme. Par les fossiles et les objets fabriqués qui y sont enfouis, il illustre admirablement l'évolution de l'Homo sapiens sapiens, depuis le Pléistocène inférieur jusqu'à notre époque. Bibliography:

1999- Lorentz National Park / Parc national de Lorentz (Criteria N (i) (ii) (iv)

Lorentz National Park (2.5 million ha) is the largest protected area in South-East Asia. It is the only protected area in the world to incorporate a continuous, intact transect from snowcap to tropical marine environment, including extensive lowland wetlands. Located at the meeting-point of two colliding continental plates, the area has a complex geology with ongoing mountain formation as well as major sculpting by glaciation. The area also contains fossil sites which provide evidence of the evolution of life on New Guinea, a high level of endemism and the highest level of biodiversity in the region.

Justification for Inscription The site is the largest protected area in Southeast Asia (2.35 mil. ha.) and the only protected area in the world which incorporates a continuous, intact transect from snow cap to tropical marine environment, including extensive lowland wetlands. Located at the meeting point of two colliding continental plates, the area has a complex geology with on-going mountain formation as well as major sculpting by glaciation and shoreline accretion which has formed much of the lowland areas. These processes have led to a high level of endemism and the area supports the highest level of biodiversity in the region. The area also contains fossil sites that record the evolution of life on New Guinea.

Le parc national de Lorentz est la plus vaste aire protégée d'Asie du Sud-Est (2,5 millions d'hectares). Son gradient mer-montagne est unique au monde – depuis les neiges éternelles jusqu'à un environnement tropical marin, y compris de grandes étendues de basses terres humides. Située au point de collision de deux plaques continentales, cette zone possède une géologie complexe avec une formation montagneuse en cours et une importante sculpture due à la glaciation. La zone contient aussi des sites fossilifères qui témoignent de l'évolution de la vie en Nouvelle-Guinée, ainsi que d'un haut niveau d'endémisme et du plus haut niveau de biodiversité de la région.

Justification d'inscription Le site est une des plus grandes aires protégés en Asie du sud-est (2,35 millions d’hectares) et la seule aire protégée au monde qui contienne un gradient continu intact des neiges éternelles à l’environnement tropical marin, y compris des grandes étendues de basses terres humides. Située au point de rencontre de deux plaques continentales qui glissent, cette zone possède une géologie complexe avec une formation montagneuse en cours, ainsi qu’un important relief déchiqueté par la glaciation et l’accrétion le long des côtes qui a formé une grande partie des zones de basses terres. Ces processus ont abouti à un haut niveau d’endémisme et la zone comporte le plus haut niveau de biodiversité de la région. Cette zone contient également des sites fossilifères qui témoignent de l’évolution de la vie en Nouvelle-Guinée. Bibliography:

2004- Tropical Rainforest Heritage of Sumatra / Patrimoine des forêts tropicales ombrophiles de Sumatra (Criteria N (ii) (iii) (iv)

The 2.5 million hectare Tropical Rainforest Heritage of Sumatra site comprises three national parks: Gunung Leuser National Park, Kerinci Seblat National Park and Bukit Barisan Selatan National Park. The site holds the greatest potential for long term conservation of the distinctive and diverse biota of Sumatra, including many endangered species. The protected area is home to an estimated 10,000 plant species, including 17 endemic genera; more than 200 mammal species; and some 580 bird species of which 465 are resident and 21 are endemic. Of the mammal species, 22 are Asian, not found elsewhere in the archipelago and 15 are confined to the Indonesian region, including the endemic Sumatran orangutan. It also provides biogeographic evidence of the evolution of the island.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (ii): The Tropical Rainforest Heritage of Sumatra represent the most important blocks of forest on the island of Sumatra for the conservation of the biodiversity of both lowland and mountain forests. This once vast island of tropical rainforest, in the space of only 50 years, has been reduced to isolated remnants including those centred on the three nominated sites. The Leuser Ecosystem, including the Gunung Leuser National Park, is by far the largest and most significant forest remnant remaining in Sumatra. All three parks would undoubtedly have been important climatic refugia for species over evolutionary time and have now become critically important refugia for future evolutionary processes. Criterion (iii): The parks that comprise the Tropical Rainforest Heritage of Sumatra are all located on the prominent main spine of the Bukit Barisan Mountains, known as the ‘Andes of Sumatra’. Outstanding scenic landscapes abound at all scales. The mountains of each site present prominent mountainous backdrops to the settled and developed lowlands of Sumatra. The combination of the spectacularly beautiful Lake Gunung Tujuh (the highest lake in southeast Asia), the magnificence of the giant Mount Kerinci volcano, numerous small volcanic, coastal and glacial lakes in natural forested settings, fumaroles belching smoke from forested mountains and numerous waterfalls and cave systems in lush rainforest settings, emphasise the outstanding beauty of the Tropical Rainforest Heritage of Sumatra. Criterion (iv): All three parks that comprise the Tropical Rainforest Heritage of Sumatra are areas of very diverse habitat and exceptional biodiversity. Collectively, the three sites include more than 50% of the total plant diversity of Sumatra. At least 92 local endemic species have been identified in Gunung Leuser National Park. The nomination contains populations of both the world’s largest flower (Rafflesia arnoldi) and the tallest flower (Amorphophallus titanium). The relict lowland forests in the nominated sites are very important for conservation of the plant and animal biodiversity of the rapidly disappearing lowland forests of South East Asia. Similarly, the montane forests, although less threatened, are very important for conservation of the distinctive montane vegetation of the property.

Le site du Patrimoine des forêts tropicales ombrophiles de Sumatra (2,5 millions d’hectares) comprend trois parcs nationaux : Gunung Leuser, Kerinci Seblat et Bukit Baristan Selatan. Ce site possède un potentiel immense pour la préservation à long terme de la faune et flore spécifiques à Sumatra, y compris de nombreuses espèces menacées. L’aire protégée abrite quelque 10 000 espèces de plantes dont 17 genres endémiques ainsi que plus de 200 espèces de mammifères et quelque 580 espèces d’oiseaux dont 465 sont résidentes et 21 endémiques. Parmi les espèces mammifères, 22 sont des espèces asiatiques que l’on ne trouve nulle part ailleurs dans l’archipel indonésien, et 15 sont inféodées à la région indonésienne, notamment l’orang-outang endémique de Sumatra. Le site constitue également un témoignage biogéographique de l’évolution de l’île.

Justification d'inscription Critère (ii) : Le Patrimoine des forêts tropicales ombrophiles de Sumatra représente les blocs forestiers les plus importants de l’île de Sumatra pour la conservation de la diversité biologique des forêts de montagne et des forêts de plaine. Cette île qui possédait autrefois de vastes forêts tropicales ombrophiles a vu celles-ci réduites, en

l’espace de 50 ans seulement, à des vestiges isolés, y compris ceux qui sont à l’intérieur des trois sites proposés. L’Écosystème Leuser, y compris le Parc national de Gunung Leuser qui fait l’objet de la proposition est de loin, le plus grand et le plus important vestige forestier de Sumatra. Les trois sites proposés auraient sans aucun doute été d’importants refuges climatiques pour les espèces au cours de l’évolution et sont aujourd’hui devenus des refuges d’importance critique pour les processus futurs de l’évolution. Critère (iii) : Les parcs qui constituent le Patrimoine des forêts tropicales ombrophiles de Sumatra se trouvent sur la dorsale principale des montagnes de Bukit Barisan que l’on appelle les «Andes de Sumatra». Des paysages pittoresques et exceptionnels abondent à toutes les échelles. Les montagnes de chacun des sites sont une toile de fond remarquable pour les plaines habitées et développées de Sumatra. L’association de la beauté spectaculaire du lac Gunung Tujuh (le plus haut lac d’Asie du Sud-Est), de la splendeur du volcan géant du mont Kerinci, de nombreux petits lacs volcaniques, côtiers et glaciaires dans un décor de forêt naturelle, de fumerolles qui crachent leur fumée dans les forêts de montagne et de cascades et réseaux de grottes nombreux dans des paysages de forêts ombrophiles luxuriantes met en valeur la beauté exceptionnelle du Patrimoine des forêts tropicales ombrophiles de Sumatra. Critère (iv) : Les trois parcs qui constituent le Patrimoine des forêts tropicales ombrophiles de Sumatra possèdent des habitats très divers et une diversité biologique exceptionnelle. Ensemble, les trois sites possèdent plus de 50% de la diversité végétale totale de Sumatra. On a recensé au moins 92 espèces endémiques locales dans le Parc national de Gunung Leuser. La proposition fait état de populations de la plus grande fleur du monde (Rafflesia arnoldi) et de la plus haute fleur du monde (Amorphophallus titanium). Les forêts reliques des basses terres des sites proposés sont très importantes pour la conservation de la biodiversité végétale et animale des forêts de plaine d’Asie du Sud-Est en disparition rapide. De même, les forêts de montagne, bien qu’elles soient moins menacées, sont très importantes pour la conservation de la végétation de montagne distinctive du bien.

IRAN (ISLAM REPUBLIC OF) / IRAN (RÉPUBLIQUE ISLAMIQUE D') 1979- Tchogha Zanbil / Tchoga Zanbil (Criteria C (iii) (iv) The ruins of the holy city of the Kingdom of Elam, surrounded by three huge concentric walls, are found at Tchogha Zanbil. Founded c. 1250 B.C., the city remained unfinished after it was invaded by Ashurbanipal, as shown by the thousands of unused bricks left at the site. À l'intérieur de trois formidables enceintes concentriques, le site de Tchoga Zanbil conserve les ruines de la ville sainte du royaume d'Élam, fondée vers 1250 av. J.-C., qui, après l'invasion d'Assurbanipal, resta inachevée, comme l'attestent ses milliers de briques inutilisées.

1979- Persepolis / Persépolis (Criteria C (i) (iii) (vi) Founded by Darius I in 518 B.C., Persepolis was the capital of the Achaemenid Empire. It was built on an immense half-artificial, half-natural terrace, where the king of kings created an impressive palace complex inspired by Mesopotamian models. The importance and quality of the monumental ruins make it a unique archaeological site. Fondée par Darius Ier en 518 av. J.-C., Persépolis, capitale de l'Empire achéménide, fut construite sur une immense terrasse mi-naturelle, mi-artificielle où le roi des rois avait édifié un splendide palais aux proportions imposantes, inspiré de modèles mésopotamiens. C'est un site archéologique unique par l'importance et la qualité de ses vestiges monumentaux.

2003- Takht-e Soleyman / Takht-e Sulaiman (Criteria C (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (vi) The archaeological site of Takht-e Soleyman, in north-western Iran, is situated in a valley set in a volcanic mountain region. The site includes the principal Zoroastrian sanctuary partly rebuilt in the Ilkhanid (Mongol) period (13th century) as well as a temple of the Sasanian period (6th and 7th centuries) dedicated to Anahita. The site has important symbolic significance. The designs of the fire temple, the palace and the general layout have strongly influenced the development of Islamic architecture.

Justification for Inscription Criterion i: Takth-e Suleiman is an outstanding ensemble of royal architecture, joining the principal architectural elements created by the Sasanians in a harmonious composition inspired by their natural context. Criterion ii: The composition and the architectural elements created by the Sasanians at Takht-e Suleiman have had strong influence not only in the development of religious architecture in the Islamic period, but also in other cultures. Criterion iii: The ensemble of Takht-e Suleiman is an exceptional testimony of the continuation of cult related to fire and water over a period of some two and half millennia. The archaeological heritage of the site is further enriched by the Sasanian town, which is still to be excavated. Criterion iv: Takht-e Suleiman represents an outstanding example of Zoroastrian sanctuary, integrated with Sasanian palatial architecture within a composition, which can be seen as a prototype. Criterion vi: As the principal Zoroastrian sanctuary, Takht-e Suleiman is the foremost site associated with one of the early monotheistic religions of the world. The site has many important symbolic relationships, being also a testimony of the association of the ancient beliefs, much earlier than the Zoroastrianism, as well as in its association with significant biblical figures and legends.

Le site archéologique de Takht-e Sulaiman, dans le nord-ouest de l’Iran, est situé dans une vallée, au milieu d’une région de montagnes volcaniques. Le site comprend le principal sanctuaire zoroastrien, en partie reconstruit sous la période des Ilkhans (Mongols), au XIIIe siècle, ainsi qu’un temple dédié à Anahita datant de la période sassanide, VIe et VIIe siècles. Le site a une valeur symbolique importante. La conception du temple du feu, celle du palais et la disposition générale du site ont sensiblement influencé le développement de l’architecture islamique.

104

Justification d'inscription Critère i : Takth-e Sulaiman est un ensemble exceptionnel d’architecture royale, regroupant les principaux éléments architecturaux créés par les Sassanides dans une composition harmonieuse inspirée par le contexte naturel. Critère ii : La composition et les éléments architecturaux créés par les Sassanides à Takht-e Sulaiman ont fortement influencé non seulement l’architecture religieuse de la période islamique mais aussi d’autres cultures. Critère iii : L’ensemble de Takht-e Sulaiman est un témoignage exceptionnel de la pérennité d’un culte liée au feu et à l’eau sur une période d’environ deux mille cinq cents ans. Le patrimoine archéologique du site est enrichi par la ville sassanide qui reste à fouiller.

Critère iv : Takht-e Sulaiman représente un exemple exceptionnel de sanctuaire zoroastrien, intégré à l’architecture palatine sassanide dans une composition qui peut être considérée comme un prototype. Critère vi : En tant que principal sanctuaire zoroastrien, Takht-e Sulaiman est le plus important site associé à l’une des religions monothéistes les plus anciennes du monde. Le site possède des liens symboliques forts, en tant que témoignage de l’association des anciennes croyances, bien plus anciennes que le zoroastrisme, ainsi que dans son association avec des légendes et des personnages bibliques importants.

2004- Pasargadae / Pasargades (Criteria C (i) (ii) (iii) (iv)

Pasargadae was the first dynastic capital of the Achaemenid Empire, founded by Cyrus II, the Great, in Pars, homeland of the Persians, in the 6th century BC. Its palaces, gardens, and the mausoleum of Cyrus are outstanding examples of the first phase of royal Achaemenid art and architecture and exceptional testimonies of Persian civilization. Particularly noteworthy vestiges in the 160-ha site include: the Mausoleum of Cyrus II; Tall-e Takht, a fortified terrace; and a royal ensemble of gatehouse, audience hall, residential palace, and gardens. Pasaragadae was the capital of the first great multicultural empire in Western Asia. Spanning the Eastern Mediterranean and Egypt to the Hindus River, it is considered to be the first empire that respected the cultural diversity of its different peoples. This was reflected in Achaemenid architecture, a synthetic representation of different cultures.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (i): Pasargadae is the first outstanding expression of the royal Achaemenid architecture. Criterion (ii): The dynastic capital of Pasargadae was built by Cyrus the Great with a contribution by different peoples of the empire created by him. It became a fundamental phase in the evolution of the classic Persian art and architecture. Criterion (iii): The archaeological site of Pasargadae with its palaces, gardens, and the tomb of the founder of the dynasty, Cyrus the Great, represents an exceptional testimony to the Achaemenid civilisation in Persia. Criterion (iv): The ‘Four Gardens’ type of royal ensemble, which was created in Pasargadae became a prototype for Western Asian architecture and design.

Pasargades fut la première capitale dynastique de l’Empire achéménide fondée au VIe siècle avant J.C. par Cyrus II le Grand au cœur du Fars, la patrie des Perses. Ses palais, jardins, et le mausolée de Cyrus constituent de remarquables exemples de la première période de l’art et de l’architecture achéménide, et des témoignages exceptionnels de la civilisation perse. Les vestiges les plus dignes d’intérêt sur ce site de 160 ha sont notamment : le mausolée de Cyrus II , le Tall-e Takht, une terrasse fortifiée, et un ensemble royal composé de vestiges d’une porte, d’une salle d’audience, du palais résidentiel et du jardin. Pasargades fut la capitale du premier grand empire pluriculturel en Asie occidentale. S’étendant de la Méditerranée orientale et de l’Egypte à l’Hindus, il est considéré comme le premier empire à avoir respecté la diversité culturelle des différents peuples qui le constituaient. En témoigne l’architecture achéménide, représentation synthétique de cultures diverses.

Justification d'inscription Critère (i) : Pasargades est la première expression exceptionnelle de l’architecture royale achéménide. Critère (ii) : La capitale dynastique de Pasargades fut construite par Cyrus le Grand, avec la contribution de différents peuples de l’empire qu’il avait créé. Elle a constitué une étape fondamentale dans l’évolution de l’art et de l’architecture perses classiques. Critère (iii) : Le site archéologique de Pasargades avec ses palais, ses jardins et la tombe du fondateur de la dynastie, Cyrus le Grand, représente un témoignage exceptionnel de la civilisation achéménide en Perse.

106

Critère (iv) : Le type d’ensemble royal à « quatre jardins », créé à Pasargades, devint un modèle qui se répandit dans l’architecture et la conception d’Asie occidentale. Bibliography:

2004- Bam and its Cultural Landscape / Bam et son paysage culturel (Criteria C (ii) (iii) (iv) (v) CL Bam is situated in a desert environment on the southern edge of the Iranian high plateau. The origins of Bam can be detected to the Achaemenid period (6 th to 4 th cent. B.C.). Its heyday was from the 7 th to 11 th centuries, being at the crossroads of important trade routes and known for the production of silk and cotton garments. The existence of life in the oasis was based on the underground irrigation canals, the qan ā ts, of which Bam has preserved some of the earliest evidence in Iran. Arg-e Bam is the most representative example of a fortified medieval town built in vernacular technique using mud layers (Chineh).

Justification for Inscription Criterion (ii): Bam developed at the crossroads of important trade routes at the southern side of the Iranian high plateau, and it became an outstanding example of the interaction of the various influences.

Criterion (iii): The Bam and its Cultural Landscape represents an exceptional testimony to the development of a trading settlement in the desert environment of the Central Asian region.

Criterion (iv): The city of Bam represents an outstanding example of a fortified settlement and citadel in the Central Asian region, based on the use mud layer technique (Chineh) combined with mud bricks (Khesht). Criterion (v): The cultural landscape of Bam is an outstanding representation of the interaction of man and nature in a desert environment, using the qanats. The system is based on a strict social system with precise tasks and responsibilities, which have been maintained in use until the present, but has now become vulnerable to irreversible change.

Inscription on the List of World Heritage in Danger: 2004

Bam et son paysage culturel s’inscrivent dans un environnement désertique, à la lisière sud du haut plateau iranien. On peut retracer les origines de Bam jusqu’à la période achéménide (VIe au IVe siècle avant J.-C.). Située au carrefour d’importantes routes marchandes et réputée pour la production de soie et de vêtements de coton, elle connut son apogée du VIIe au XIe siècle. La vie dans l’oasis reposait sur les canaux d’irrigation souterrains, les qan ā ts, dont Bam a préservé quelques-uns des plus anciens en Iran. Arg-e Bam est l’exemple le plus représentatif d’une ville médiévale fortifiée construite selon une technique vernaculaire, à l’aide de couches de terre (Chineh).

Justification d'inscription Critère (ii) : Bam s’est développée au carrefour d’importantes routes marchandes à la limite sud du haut plateau iranien, jusqu’à devenir un exemple exceptionnel de l’interaction des diverses influences. Critère (iii) : Bam et son paysage culturel représentent un témoignage exceptionnel du développement d’un peuplement marchand dans un environnement désertique d’Asie centrale.

107

Critère (iv) : La Citadelle de Bam (Arg-e Bam)représente un exemple exceptionnel de peuplement fortifié et de citadelle d’Asie Centrale, reposant sur la technique de couches de terre (Chineh) combinées à des briques de terre (Khesht). Critère (v) : Le paysage culturel de Bam est une représentation exceptionnelle de l’interaction de l’homme et de la nature dans un environnement désertique, utilisant les qanats, qui reposent sur un système social strict, aux tâches et aux responsabilités précisément définies, et qui sont demeurés en usage jusqu’à nos jours, mais qui sont désormais devenus vulnérables à un changement irréversible.

JAPAN / JAPON 1993- Buddhist Monuments in the Horyu-ji Area / Monuments bouddhiques de la région d'Horyu-ji (Criteria C (i) (ii) (iv) (vi)

There are around 48 Buddhist monuments in the Horyu-ji area, in Nara Prefecture. Several date from the late 7th or early 8th century, making them some of the oldest surviving wooden buildings in the world. These masterpieces of wooden architecture are important not only for the history of art, since they illustrate the adaptation of Chinese Buddhist architecture and layout to Japanese culture, but also for the history of religion, since their construction coincided with the introduction of Buddhism to Japan from China by way of the Korean peninsula. Les monuments bouddhiques du Horyu-ji, dans la préfecture de Nara, sont au nombre de 48. Certains édifices construits à la fin du VIIe ou au début du VIIIe siècle comptent parmi les plus anciens bâtiments de bois subsistant dans le monde. Chefs-d'œuvre de l'architecture en bois, ils ont marqué une période importante de l'histoire de l'art, illustrant en effet l'adaptation de l'architecture et des plans bouddhiques chinois à la culture japonaise. Ils ont également marqué l'histoire des religions car leur construction coïncide avec l'introduction du bouddhisme au Japon, arrivant de Chine par la péninsule de Corée.

1993-Himeji-jo / Himeji-jo (Criteria C (i) (iv)

Himeji-jo is the finest surviving example of early 17th-century Japanese castle architecture, comprising 83 buildings with highly developed systems of defence and ingenious protection devices dating from the beginning of the Shogun period. It is a masterpiece of construction in wood, combining function with aesthetic appeal, both in its elegant appearance unified by the white plastered earthen walls and in the subtlety of the relationships between the building masses and the multiple roof layers. Himeji-jo est l'expression la plus parfaite de l'architecture de château du début du XVIIe siècle au Japon. Il comprend 83 bâtiments, avec des dispositifs de défense très élaborés et d'ingénieux systèmes de protection édifiés au début de la période du shogunat. C'est un chef-d'œuvre de construction en bois qui associe un véritable rôle fonctionnel à un grand attrait esthétique, par l'élégance de son aspect et ses murs de terre blanchis, et par la subtilité des relations entre les masses des bâtiments et les multiples plans de ses toits.

1995- Historic Villages of Shirakawa-go and Gokayama / Villages historiques de Shirakawa-go et Gokayama (Criteria C (iv) (v)

Located in a mountainous region that was cut off from the rest of the world for a long period of time, these villages with their Gassho-style houses subsisted on the cultivation of mulberry trees and the rearing of silkworms. The large houses with their steeply pitched thatched roofs are the only examples of their kind in Japan. Despite economic upheavals, the villages of Ogimachi, Ainokura and Suganuma are outstanding examples of a traditional way of life perfectly adapted to the environment and people's social and economic circumstances. Situés dans une région montagneuse longtemps isolée, ces villages aux maisons de style gassho tiraient leur subsistance de la culture du mûrier et de l'élevage du ver à soie. Leurs grandes maisons au toit de chaume à double pente très accentuée sont uniques au Japon. Malgré les bouleversements économiques, les villages d'Ogimachi, d'Ainokura et de Suganuma demeurent des témoins exceptionnels de la parfaite adaptation de la vie traditionnelle à son environnement et à sa fonction sociale.

1996- Itsukushima Shinto Shrine / Sanctuaire shinto d'Itsukushima (Criteria C (i) (ii) (iv) (vi)

The island of Itsukushima, in the Seto inland sea, has been a holy place of Shintoism since the earliest times. The first shrine buildings here were probably erected in the 6th century. The present shrine dates from the 13th century and the harmoniously arranged buildings reveal great artistic and technical skill. The shrine plays on the contrasts in colour and form between mountains and sea and illustrates the Japanese concept of scenic beauty, which combines nature and human creativity.

Justification for Inscription The Committee decided to inscribe the nominated property on the basis of cultural criteria (i), (ii), (iv) and (vi) as the supreme example of this form of religious centre, setting traditional architecture of great artistic and technical merit against a dramatic natural background and thereby creating a work of art of incomparable physical beauty.

Lieu saint du shintoïsme depuis les temps les plus reculés, l'île d'Itsukushima, dans la mer intérieure de Seto, aurait accueilli ses premiers sanctuaires au VIe siècle. Le sanctuaire actuel date du XIIIe siècle et ses bâtiments harmonieusement disposés témoignent d'une grande qualité artistique et technique. Composition jouant, entre mer et montagne, sur les contrastes de couleurs et de masses, le sanctuaire d'Itsukushima illustre parfaitement le concept japonais de la beauté d'un panorama unissant paysage naturel et création humaine.

Justification d'inscription Le Comité a décidé d'inscrire le bien proposé sur la base des critères culturels (i), (ii), (iv) et (vi) en tant qu'exemple suprême de cette forme de centre religieux qui rassemble une architecture traditionnelle de grand mérite artistique et technique et un site naturel extraordinaire, créant ainsi une oeuvre d'art d'une incomparable beauté.

1996- Hiroshima Peace Memorial (Genbaku Dome) / Mémorial de la paix d'Hiroshima (Dôme de Genbaku) (Criteria C (vi) The Hiroshima Peace Memorial (Genbaku Dome) was the only structure left standing in the area where the first atomic bomb exploded on 6 August 1945. Through the efforts of many people, including those of the city of Hiroshima, it has been preserved in the same state as immediately after the bombing. Not only is it a stark and powerful symbol of the most destructive force ever created by humankind; it also expresses the hope for world peace and the ultimate elimination of all nuclear weapons.

Justification for Inscription The Committee decided to inscribe the Hiroshima Peace Memorial (Genbaku Dome) on the World Heritage List, exceptionally on the basis of cultural criterion (vi).

Le Mémorial de la Paix d'Hiroshima, ou Dôme de Genbaku, fut le seul bâtiment à rester debout près du lieu où explosa la première bombe atomique, le 6 août 1945. Il a été préservé tel qu'il était juste après le bombardement grâce à de nombreux efforts, dont ceux des habitants d'Hiroshima, en espérant une paix durable et l'élimination finale de toutes les armes nucléaires de la planète. C'est un symbole dur et puissant de la force la plus destructrice que l'homme ait jamais créée, qui incarne en même temps l'espoir de la paix.

Justification d'inscription Le Comité a décidé d'inscrire le Mémorial de la Paix d'Hiroshima, Dôme de Genbaku, sur la Liste du patrimoine mondial, exceptionnellement, sur la base du critère culturel(vi).

1998-Historic Monuments of Ancient Nara / Monuments historiques de l'ancienne (Criteria C (ii) (iii) (iv) (vi)

116

Nara was the capital of Japan from 710 to 784. During this period the framework of national government was consolidated and Nara enjoyed great prosperity, emerging as the fountainhead of Japanese culture. The city's historic monuments – Buddhist temples, Shinto shrines and the excavated remains of the great Imperial Palace – provide a vivid picture of life in the Japanese capital in the 8th century, a period of profound political and cultural change.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (ii): The historic monuments of ancient Nara bear exceptional witness to the evolution of Japanese architecture and art as a result of cultural links with China and Korea which were to have a profound influence on future developments. Criterion (iii): The flowering of Japanese culture during the period when Nara was the capital is uniquely demonstrated by its architectural heritage. Criterion (iv): The layout of the Imperial Palace and the design of the surviving monuments in Nara are outstanding examples of the architecture and planning of early Asian capital cities. Criterion (vi): The Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines of Nara demonstrate the continuing spiritual power and influence of these religions in an exceptional manner.

Nara a été la capitale du Japon de 710 à 784. Durant cette période, la structure du gouvernement national s'est consolidée et la capitale, très prospère, est devenue la source d'inspiration de la culture japonaise. Les monuments historiques de Nara – temples bouddhiques et sanctuaires shintoïstes, ainsi que les fouilles du grand palais impérial – offrent une image frappante de ce que fut la capitale du Japon au VIIIe siècle, période de profond changement politique et culturel.

Justification d'inscription Critère (ii) : les monuments historiques de l’ancienne Nara constituent des témoins exceptionnels de l’évolution de l’architecture et de l’art japonais, influencés par les liens culturels entretenus avec la Chine et la Corée, dont l’influence sur les développements ultérieurs s’est révélée déterminante. Critère (iii) : L'épanouissement de la culture japonaise à l'époque où Nara était la capitale trouve un témoignage unique dans son patrimoine architectural. Critère (iv) : L'agencement du Palais impérial et la conception des monuments qui subsistent à Nara sont des exemples remarquables de l'architecture et de l'urbanisme des anciennes capitales asiatiques. Critère (vi) : Les temples bouddhistes et les sanctuaires shinto de Nara témoignent de manière exceptionnelle de la permanence de la force spirituelle et de l'influence de ces religions.

1999- Shrines and Temples of Nikko / Sanctuaires et temples de Nikko (Criteria C (i) (iv) (vi) The shrines and temples of Nikko, together with their natural surroundings, have for centuries been a sacred site known for its architectural and decorative masterpieces. They are closely associated with the history of the Tokugawa Shoguns.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (i): The Nikko shrines and temples are a reflection of architectural and artistic genius; this aspect is reinforced by the harmonious integration of the buildings in a forest and a natural site laid out by man. Criterion (iv): Nikko is a perfect illustration of the architectural style of the Edo period as applied to Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples. The Gongen-zukuri style of the two mausoleums, the Tôshôgu and the Taiyû-in Reibyô, reached the peak of its expression in Nikko, and was later to exert a decisive influence. The ingenuity and creativity of its architects and decorators are revealed in an outstanding and distinguished manner. Criterion (vi): The Nikko shrines and temples, together with their environment, are an outstanding example of a traditional Japanese religious centre, associated with the Shinto perception of the relationship of man with nature, in which mountains and forests have a sacred meaning and are objects of veneration, in a religious practice that is still very much alive today.

Les sanctuaires et temples de Nikko, ainsi que le cadre naturel qui les entoure, constituent depuis des siècles un lieu sacré où se sont élevés des chefs-d'œuvre d'architecture et de décoration artistique. Ils sont étroitement liés à l'histoire des shoguns Tokugawa.

Justification d'inscription Critère i : les sanctuaires et temples de Nikko portent la marque du génie architectural et artistique ; ce caractère est renforcé par la parfaite intégration des édifices dans une forêt et un site naturel aménagés par l'homme. Critère iv : Nikko offre une parfaite représentation du style architectural de la période Edo appliqué aux sanctuaires shintoïstes et aux temples bouddhistes. Le style "Gongen-zukuri" des deux mausolées, le Tôshôgû et le Taiyû-in Reibyô, connaît à Nikko son illustration la plus aboutie, qui allait exercer dans la suite une influence déterminante. L'ingéniosité et la créativité des architectes et des artistes décorateurs s'y révèlent d'une manière singulière et éminente. Critère vi : les sanctuaires et temples de Nikko et leur environnement évoquent un espace religieux traditionnel japonais, associé à la perception shintoïste des rapports avec la nature, où les montagnes et les forêts ont une charge sacrée et sont objets de vénération, dans une pratique religieuse encore vivante aujourd'hui.

2000- Gusuku Sites and Related Properties of the Kingdom of Ryukyu / Sites Gusuku et biens associés du royaume des Ryukyu (Criteria C (ii) (iii) (vi) Five hundred years of Ryukyuan history (12th-17th century) are represented by this group of sites and monuments. The ruins of the castles, on imposing elevated sites, are evidence for the social structure over much of that period, while the sacred sites provide mute testimony to the rare survival of an ancient form of religion into the modern age. The wide- ranging economic and cultural contacts of the Ryukyu Islands over that period gave rise to a unique culture.

Justification for Inscription Criterion ii For several centuries the Ryukyu islands served as a centre of economic and cultural interchange between south-east Asia, China, Korea, and Japan, and this is vividly demonstrated by the surviving monuments. Criterion iii The culture of the Ryukyuan Kingdom evolved and flourished in a special political and economic environment, which gave its culture a unique quality. Criterion vi The Ryukyu sacred sites constitute an exceptional example of an indigenous form of nature and ancestor worship which has survived intact into the modern age alongside other established world religions.

Ce groupe de sites et de monuments représente cinq cents ans d'histoire des Ryukyu (XIIe-XVIIe siècle). Les châteaux en ruine, qui se dressent sur d'imposantes hauteurs, illustrent la structure sociale d'une grande partie de cette période, tandis que les sites sacrés demeurent les témoins muets de la rare survivance d'une ancienne forme de religion jusque dans l'ère contemporaine. Les multiples contacts économiques et culturels des îles Ryukyu au cours de cette période s'expriment dans le caractère unique de la culture qu'elles ont forgée.

Justification d'inscription Critère ii Pendant plusieurs siècles, les îles des Ryukyu ont servi de centre d’échanges économiques et culturels entre l’Asie du sud-est, la Chine, la Corée et le Japon, comme en témoignent avec force les monuments qui subsistent. Critère iii La culture du royaume des Ryukyu a évolué et s’est épanouie dans un environnement politique et économique particulier, qui lui a conféré des caractéristiques uniques. Critère vi Les sites sacrés des Ryukyu constituent un exemple exceptionnel de forme indigène de culte de la nature et des ancêtres qui a survécu intact dans l’âge moderne, aux côtés des grandes religions du monde.

2004- Sacred Sites and Pilgrimage Routes in the Kii Mountain Range / Sites sacrés et chemins de pèlerinage dans les monts Kii (Criteria C (ii) (iii) (iv) (vi) CL Set in the dense forests of the Kii Mountains overlooking the Pacific Ocean, three sacred sites - Yoshino and Omine, Kumano Sanzan, and Koyasan - linked by pilgrimage routes to the ancient capital cities of Nara and Kyoto, reflect the fusion of Shinto, rooted in the ancient tradition of nature

121

worship in Japan, and Buddhism, which was introduced to Japan from China and the Korean peninsula. The sites (495.3-ha) and their surrounding forest landscape reflect a persistent and extraordinarily well-documented tradition of sacred mountains over 1,200 years. The area, with its abundance of streams, rivers and waterfalls, is still part of the living culture of Japan and is much visited for ritual purposes and hiking, with up to 15 million visitors annually. Each of the three sites contains shrines, some of which were founded as early as the 9th century.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (ii): The monuments and sites that form the cultural landscape of the Kii Mountains are a unique fusion between Shintoism and Buddhism that illustrates the interchange and development of religious cultures in East Asia. Criterion (iii): The Shinto shrines and Buddhist temples in the Kii Mountains, and their associated rituals, bear exceptional testimony to the development of Japan’s religious culture over more than a thousand years. Criterion (iv): The Kii Mountains have become the setting for the creation of unique forms of shrine and temple buildings which have had a profound influence on the building of temples and shrines elsewhere in Japan. Criterion (vi): Together, the sites and the forest landscape of the Kii Mountains reflect a persistent and extraordinarily well-documented tradition of sacred mountains over the past 1200 years.

Nichés au cœur de forêts denses, dans les monts Kii qui surplombent l’océan Pacifique, trois sites sacrés, Yoshino et Omine, Kumano Sanzan et Koyasan, reliés par des chemins de pèlerinage aux anciennes capitales de Nara et Kyoto, reflètent la fusion entre le shinto, enraciné dans l’antique tradition japonaise du culte de la nature, et le bouddhisme venu depuis la Chine et la péninsule coréenne s’implanter au Japon. Les sites (495,3 ha) et la forêt qui les entoure reflètent une tradition pérenne et extraordinairement bien documentée de sanctification des montagnes, vivante depuis 1200 ans. L’endroit, qui abonde en torrents, rivières et chutes d’eau, fait toujours partie de la culture vivante du Japon et accueille jusqu’à 15 millions de visiteurs par an, pèlerins ou randonneurs. Chacun des trois sites renferme des sanctuaires, dont certains remontent au IXe siècle

Justification d'inscription Critère (ii) : Les monuments et les sites qui composent le paysage culturel des monts Kii forment une fusion unique entre le shintoïsme et le bouddhisme qui illustre l’échange et le développement des cultures religieuses en Asie orientale. Critère (iii) : Les sanctuaires shintoïstes et les temples bouddhistes des monts Kii, et leurs rituels associés sont le témoignage exceptionnel du développement d’une culture religieuse japonaise sur plus de mille ans. Critère (iv) : Les monts Kii sont devenus le lieu de la création de formes uniques de sanctuaires et de temples qui ont eu une influence profonde sur la construction des temples et des sanctuaires ailleurs au Japon. Critère (vi) : Ensemble, les sites et le paysage de forêt des monts Kii reflètent une tradition continue et très bien documentée liée aux montagnes sacrées sur les 1200 dernières années.

KAZAKHSTAN / KAZAKSTAN 2003- Mausoleum of Khoja Ahmed Yasawi / Mausolée de Khoja Ahmad Yasawi (Criteria C (i)(iii)(iv) The Mausoleum of Khoja Ahmed Yasawi, in the town of Yasi, now Turkestan, was built at the time of Timur (Tamerlane), from 1389 to 1405. In this partly unfinished building, Persian master builders experimented with architectural and structural solutions later used in the construction of Samarkand, the capital of the Timurid Empire. Today, it is one of the largest and best-preserved constructions of the Timurid period.

Justification for Inscription Criterion i: The Mausoleum of Khoja Ahmed Yasawi is an outstanding achievement in the Timurid architecture, and it has significantly contributed to the development of Islamic religious architecture. Criterion iii: The mausoleum and its site represent an exceptional testimony to the culture of the Central Asian region, and to the development of building technology. Criterion iv: The Mausoleum of Khoja Ahmed Yasawi was a prototype for the development of a major building type in the Timurid period, becoming a significant reference in the history of Timurid architecture.

Le mausolée de Khoja Ahmad Yasawi, dans la ville de Yasi, aujourd’hui appelée Turkestan, fut construit à l’époque de Tamerlan, de 1389 à 1405. Dans ce bâtiment, dont certaines parties demeurèrent inachevées, les maîtres constructeurs perses expérimentèrent de nouvelles solutions architecturales et structurelles qui furent ensuite adoptées pour la construction de Samarkand, capitale de l’Empire timuride. C’est aujourd’hui l’une des constructions les plus grandes et les mieux conservées de l’époque timuride.

Justification d'inscription Critère i Le mausolée de Khoja Ahmad Yasawi est une réalisation exceptionnelle de l’architecture timuride ; il a contribué de manière importante au développement de l’architecture religieuse islamique. Critère iii Le mausolée et son site représentent un témoignage exceptionnel de la culture de la région d’Asie centrale et du développement de la technologie de la construction. Critère iv Le mausolée de Khoja Ahmad Yasawi fut un modèle pour le développement d’un type majeur de construction sous la période timuride, devenant une référence importante dans l’histoire de l’architecture timuride.

2004- Petroglyphs within the Archaeological Landscape of Tamgaly / Pétroglyphes du paysage archéologique de Tamgaly (Criteria C (iii) CL

Set around the comparatively lush Tamgaly Gorge, amidst the vast, arid Chu-Ili mountains, is a remarkable concentration of some 5,000 petroglyphs (rock carvings) dating from the second half of the second millennium BC to the beginning of the 20th century. Distributed among 48 complexes with associated settlements and burial grounds, they are testimonies to the husbandry, social organization and rituals of pastoral peoples. Human settlements in the site are often multi-layered and show occupation through the ages. A huge number of ancient burials are also to be found including stone enclosures with boxes and cists (middle and late Bronze Age), and mounds (kurgans) of stone and

123

earth built above tombs (early Iron Age to the present). The central canyon contains the densest concentration of engravings and what are believed to be altars, suggestsing that these places were used for sacrificial offerings.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (iii): The dense and coherent group of petroglyphs, with sacred images, altars and cult areas, together with their associated settlements and burial sites, provide a substantial testimony to the lives and beliefs of pastoral peoples of the central Asian steppes from the Bronze Age to the present day.

Les environs de la gorge de Tamgaly, relativement luxuriante par rapport aux vastes et arides monts Chu-Ili, recèlent une remarquable concentration de quelque 5000 pétroglyphes (gravures sur pierre) ; leur datation va de la seconde moitié du deuxième millénaire avant J.C. au début du XXe siècle. Répartis en 48 ensembles avec les sites funéraires et les peuplements associés, ils témoignent de l’élevage, de l’organisation sociale et des rituels des peuplades de pasteurs. Les vestiges des peuplements humains, souvent stratifiés en plusieurs couches, révèlent les activités à travers les âges. On y trouve également une grande abondance de sites funéraires antiques, dont des enceintes de pierres avec des urnes et des cistes (milieu et fin de l’âge de bronze) et des tertres de pierre et de terre (kugans) érigés au-dessus des tombes (des débuts de l’âge du fer jusqu’à l’époque actuelle). La gorge centrale contient la plus forte concentration de gravures et ce qui est estimé être des autels, suggérant que ces lieux étaient utilisés pour des offrandes sacrificielles.

Justification d'inscription Critère (iii) : L’ensemble dense et cogérent de pétroglyphes, avec les images sacrées, les autels et les lieux de culte, ainsi que les établissements et sites associés, constituent un témoignage important sur l’existence et les croyances des peuples de pasteurs des steppes d’Asie centrale, depuis l’Age du Bronze jusqu’à nos jours.

2001- Vat Phou and Associated Ancient Settlements within the Champasak Cultural Landscape / Vat Phou et les anciens établissements associés du paysage culturel de Champassak (Criteria C (iii) (iv) (vi) The Champasak cultural landscape, including the Vat Phou Temple complex, is a remarkably well-preserved planned landscape more than 1,000 years old. It was shaped to express the Hindu vision of the relationship between nature and humanity, using an axis from mountain top to river bank to lay out a geometric pattern of temples, shrines and waterworks extending over some 10 km. Two planned cities on the banks of the Mekong River are also part of the site, as well as Phou Kao mountain. The whole represents a development ranging from the 5th to 15th centuries, mainly associated with the Khmer Empire.

Justification for Inscription Criterion iii The Temple Complex of Vat Phou bears exceptional testimony to the cultures of south-east Asia, and in particular to the Khmer Empire which dominated the region in the 10th–14th centuries.

125

Criterion iv The Vat Phou complex is an outstanding example of the integration of symbolic landscape of great spiritual significance to its natural surroundings. Criterion vi Contrived to express the Hindu version of the relationship between nature and humanity, Vat Phou exhibits a remarkable complex of monuments and other structures over an extensive area between river and mountain, some of outstanding architecture, many containing great works of art, and all expressing intense religious conviction and commitment.

Le paysage culturel de Champassak, y compris l'ensemble du temple de Vat Phou, représente une zone de paysage planifiée remontant à plus de mille ans et remarquablement bien conservée. Afin d'exprimer la conception hindoue des rapports entre la nature et l'homme, il a été façonné selon un axe compris entre le sommet de la montagne et les rives du fleuve dans un entrelacs géométrique de temples, de sanctuaires et d'ouvrages hydrauliques s'étendant sur quelque 10 km. Le site comprend aussi deux villes anciennes, construites sur les rives du Mékong et la montagne de Phou Kao, l'ensemble représentant un processus d'aménagement s'étendant sur plus de mille ans, du Ve au XVe siècle, associé surtout à l'Empire khmer.

Justification d'inscription Critère iii L’ensemble du temple de Vat Phou est un témoignage exceptionnel des cultures d’Asie du sud-est, et en particulier de l’empire khmer qui domina la région du Xe au XIVe siècle. Critère iv L’ensemble de Vat Phou illustre remarquablement l’intégration d’un paysage symbolique d’une grande valeur spirituelle dans son environnement naturel. Critère vi Illustration de l’interprétation hindoue de la relation entre la nature et l’humanité, Vat Phou se targue d’un remarquable ensemble de monuments et autres structures disséminées sur une vaste superficie entre fleuve et montagne, certains dotés d’une architecture exceptionnelle, beaucoup abritant de magnifiques œuvres d’art, et exprimant tous une conviction et un engagement religieux intenses.

MALAYSIA / MALAISIE 2000- Gunung Mulu National Park / Parc national du Gunung Mulu (Criteria N (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) Important both for its high biodiversity and for its karst features, Gunung Mulu National Park, on the island of Borneo in the State of Sarawak, is the most studied tropical karst area in the world. The 52,864-ha park contains seventeen vegetation zones, exhibiting some 3,500 species of vascular

126

plants. Its palm species are exceptionally rich, with 109 species in twenty genera noted. The park is dominated by Gunung Mulu, a 2,377 m-high sandstone pinnacle. At least 295 km of explored caves provide a spectacular sight and are home to millions of cave swiftlets and bats. The Sarawak Chamber, 600 m by 415 m and 80 m high, is the largest known cave chamber in the world.

Justification for Inscription Criteria (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv): The concentration of caves in Mulu's Melinau Formation with its geomorphic and structural characteristics is an outstanding feature which allows a greater understanding of Earth's history. The caves of Mulu are important for their classic features of underground geomorphology, demonstrating an evolutionary history of more than 1.5 million years. One of the world's finest examples of the collapse process in Karstic terrain can be also found. GMNP provides outstanding scientific opportunities to study theories on the origins of cave faunas. With its deeply-incised canyons, wild rivers, rainforest-covered mountains, spectacular limestone pinnacles, cave passages and decorations, Mulu has outstanding scenic values. GMNP also provides significant natural habitat for a wide range of plant and animal diversity both above and below ground. It is botanically-rich in species and high in endemism, including one of the richest sites in the world for palm species.

Important aussi bien pour sa grande biodiversité que pour son caractère karstique, le Parc national du Gunung Mulu (52 864 ha), dans l'État de Sarawak sur l'île de Bornéo, constitue la région karstique tropicale la plus étudiée au monde. Le parc contient 17 zones de végétation comportant environ 3 500 espèces de plantes vasculaires. Il est considéré comme l'un des sites les plus riches au monde pour les palmiers, avec 109 espèces de 20 genres décrites. Le sommet du Gunung Mulu, un pic karstique haut de 2 377 m, domine le parc. Au moins 295 km de grottes explorées offrent un spectacle extraordinaire avec des millions de salanganes et de chauves-souris. La salle du Sarawak, qui mesure 600 m sur 415 m et 80 m de haut, est la plus grande salle souterraine connue au monde.

Justification d'inscription Critères (i), (ii), (iii) et (iv) : La concentration des grottes de la formation Melinau de Mulu, avec ses caractéristiques structurelles et géomorphologiques, est un élément exceptionnel qui améliore considérablement la compréhension de l’histoire de la Terre. Les grottes de Mulu sont importantes pour les caractéristiques classiques de la géomorphologie souterraine qui illustrent une histoire évolutionnaire de plus de 1,5 million d’années. On peut également y trouver l’un des meilleurs exemples au monde d’effondrement karstique. Le PNGM offre à la science l’occasion exceptionnelle d’étudier les théories de l’origine des faunes cavernicoles. Avec ses canyons profondément incisés, ses rivières sauvages, ses montagnes couvertes de forêts ombrophiles, ses pinacles calcaires spectaculaires, ses passages souterrains et les décorations des grottes, Mulu présente des valeurs paysagères exceptionnelles. Le PNGM fournit également un habitat naturel important à une grande diversité de plantes et d’animaux vivant au-dessus et au-dessous du sol. Il est riche en espèces et en endémisme sur le plan botanique et constitue un des sites les plus riches du monde pour les espèces de palmiers. Bibliography:

It has a very wide range of habitats, from rich tropical lowland and hill rainforest to tropical mountain forest, sub-alpine forest and scrub on the higher elevations. It has been designated as a Centre of Plant

127

Diversity for Southeast Asia and is exceptionally rich in species with examples of flora from the Himalayas, China, Australia, Malaysia, as well as pan-tropical flora.

Justification for Inscription Criteria (ii) and (iv): The site has a diverse biota and high endemism. The altitudinal and climatic gradient from tropical forest to alpine conditions combine with precipitous topography, diverse geology and frequent climate oscillations to provide conditions ideal for the development of new species. The Park contains high biodiversity with representatives from more than half the families of all flowering plants. The majority of Borneo’s mammals, birds, amphibians and invertebrates (many threatened and vulnerable) occur in the Park.

Ce parc, situé dans l'Etat de Sabah, au nord de l'île de Bornéo, est dominé par le mont Kinabalu (4 095 m), la plus haute montagne entre la chaîne de l'Himalaya et la Nouvelle-Guinée. Il présente un large éventail d'habitats : riches forêts ombrophiles tropicales de plaine et de colline, forêt tropicale de montagne, et, plus haut en altitude, forêts subalpines et buissons sempervirentes. Le Parc du Kinabalu a été désigné comme le Centre de diversité des plantes pour la région de l'Asie du Sud-Est. Il est exceptionnellement riche en espèces, présentant des éléments des flores himalayenne, chinoise, australienne, malaise et pantropicale.

Justification d'inscription Citères (ii) et (iv): La faune et la flore du site sont très diverses et présentent un taux d’endémisme élevé. Le gradient altitudinal et climatique, qui s’étend de la forêt tropicale à des milieux alpins, s’associe à une topographie vertigineuse, une géologie variée et de fréquentes oscillations climatiques pour créer les conditions idéales à l’évolution de nouvelles espèces. La diversité biologique du Parc est élevée et l’on y trouve des représentants de plus de la moitié des familles de toutes les plantes à fleurs. La plupart des mammifères, oiseaux, amphibiens et invertébrés (dans bien des cas menacés ou vulnérables) de Bornéo sont présents dans le Parc

MONGOLIA/ MONGOLIE

2003- Uvs Nuur Basin / Bassin d’Ubs Nuur (Criteria N (ii) (iv) The Uvs Nuur Basin (1,068,853 ha), is the northernmost of the enclosed basins of Central Asia. It takes its name from Uvs Nuur Lake, a large, shallow and very saline lake, important for migrating birds, waterfowl and seabirds. The site is made up of twelve protected areas representing the major biomes of eastern Eurasia. The steppe ecosystem supports a rich diversity of birds and the desert is home to a number of rare gerbil, jerboas and the marbled polecat. The mountains are an important refuge for the globally endangered snow leopard, mountain sheep (argali) and the Asiatic ibex.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (ii): The closed salt lake system of Uvs Nuur is of international scientific importance because of its climatic and hydrological regimes. Because of the unchanging nature of the nomadic pastoral use of the grasslands within the basin over thousands of years, current research programmes should be able to unravel the rate at which Uvs Nuur (and other smaller lakes within the basin) have become saline (and eutrophic). These processes are on-going and because of its unique geophysical and biological characteristics, the basin has been chosen as an IGBP site for monitoring global warming. Criterion (iv): The Uvs Nuur site has a large range of ecosystems, representing the major biomes of eastern Eurasia, with a number of endemic plants. Although the basin is inhabited and has been used for nomadic pastoralism for thousands of years, the mountains, forests, steppes and deserts are extremely important habitats for a wide range of wild animals, many of them threatened or endangered. The steppe ecosystem supports a rich diversity of birds and the deserts a number of rare gerbil, jerboas and the marbled polecat. The mountains at

128

the western end of the basin are important refuges for the globally threatened snow leopard, mountain sheep (argali) and the Asiatic ibex. Uvs Nuur itself is an important habitat for waterfowl as well as for birds migrating south from Siberia.

Le Bassin d’Ubs Nuur, qui couvre une surface de plus de un million d’hectares, est le bassin fermé le plus septentrional d’Asie centrale. Il tire son nom de l’Ubs Nuur, un grand lac peu profond et très salé, qui joue un rôle important dans la vie des oiseaux migrateurs, tant aquatiques que marins. Le site, divisé en douze aires protégées, comprend une vaste gamme d’écosystèmes qui représentent les principaux biomes de l’Eurasie orientale. L’écosystème steppique entretient une riche diversité d’oiseaux et le désert un certain nombre de gerbilles, gerboises et putois marbrés rares. Les montagnes sont d’importants refuges pour le léopard des neiges (une espèce menacée), l’argali et le bouquetin d’Asie.

Justification d'inscription Critère (ii): Le système lacustre salé fermé de l’Ubs Nuur est d’importance scientifique internationale en raison de ses régimes climatique et hydrologique. En raison de l’immuabilité de l’utilisation pastorale nomade des pâturages du bassin depuis des milliers d’années, les programmes de recherche actuels devaient être en mesure de révéler le rythme auquel l’Ubs Nuur (ainsi que d’autres lacs plus petits se trouvant dans le bassin) est devenu salin (et eutrophe). Ces processus sont en cours et, en raison de ses caractéristiques géophysiques et biologiques uniques, le bassin a été choisi par le Programme géologique international pour l’étude du réchauffement climatique. L’UICN considère que le site remplit le critère (ii) Critère (iv): Le site d’Ubs Nuur comprend une vaste gamme d’écosystèmes qui représentent les principaux biomes de l’Eurasie orientale, avec un certain nombre d’espèces de plantes endémiques. Bien que le bassin soit habité et qu’il ait servi au pastoralisme nomade depuis des milliers d’années, les montagnes, les forêts, les steppes et les déserts sont des habitats extrêmement importants pour toute une variété d’animaux sauvages qui, dans bien des cas, sont menacés ou même en danger critique d’extinction. L’écosystème steppique entretient une riche diversité d’oiseaux et les déserts un certain nombre de gerbilles, gerboises et putois marbrés rares. Les montagnes de la partie occidentale du bassin sont d’importants refuges pour le léopard des neiges menacé au plan mondial, l’argali et le bouquetin d’Asie. L’Ubs Nuur lui-même est un habitat important pour les oiseaux d’eau ainsi que pour les oiseaux qui migrent au sud de la Sibérie. L’UICN considère que le site remplit le critère (iv).

2004- Orkhon Valley Cultural Landscape / Paysage culturel de la vallée de l’Orkhon (Criteria C (ii) (iii) (iv) CL

The 121,967-ha Orkhon Valley Cultural Landscape encompasses an extensive area of pastureland on both banks of the Orkhon River and includes numerous archaeological remains dating back to the 6th century. The site also includes Kharkhorum, the 13th and 14th century capital of Chinggis (Genghis) Khan’s vast Empire. Collectively the remains in the site reflect the symbiotic links between nomadic, pastoral societies and their administrative and religious centres, and the importance of the Orkhon valley in the history of central Asia. The grassland is still grazed by Mongolian nomadic pastoralists.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (ii): The Orkhon valley clearly demonstrates how a strong and persistent nomadic culture, led to the development of extensive trade networks and the creation of large administrative, commercial, military and religious centres. The empires that these urban centres supported undoubtedly influenced societies across Asia and into Europe and in turn absorbed influence from both east and west in a true interchange of human values. Criterion (iii): Underpinning all the development within the Orkhon valley for the past two millennia has been a strong culture of nomadic pastoralism. This culture is still a revered and indeed central part of Mongolian society and is highly respected as a ‘noble’ way to live in harmony with the landscape.

129

Criterion (iv): The Orkhon valley is an outstanding example of a valley that illustrates several significant stages in human history. First and foremost it was the centre of the Mongolian Empire; secondly it reflects a particular Mongolian variation of Turkish power; thirdly, the Tuvkhun hermitage monastery was the setting for the development of a Mongolian form of Buddhism; and fourthly, Khar Balgas, reflects the Uighur urban culture in the capital of the Uighur Empire.

Le paysage culturel de la vallée de l’Orkhon, d’environ 121 967 ha, couvre une vaste zone de pâturages sur les deux rives de l’Orkhon et comprend de nombreux vestiges archéologiques remontant au VIe siècle. Le site englobe également Karakorum, capitale aux XIIIe et XIVe siècles du vaste empire de Chinggis (Genghis) Khan. Les vestiges du site reflètent les liens symbiotiques entre les sociétés pastorales nomades et leurs centres administratifs et religieux, et l’importance de la vallée de l’Orkhon dans l’histoire de l’Asie centrale. Les herbages sont encore utilisés aujourd’hui par les bergers nomades de Mongolie.

Justification d'inscription Critère (ii) : La vallée de l’Orkhon démontre clairement la manière dont une culture nomade forte et pérenne a conduit au développement de réseaux commerciaux étendus et à la création de grands centres administratifs, marchands, militaires et religieux. Les empires que ces centres urbains ont soutenus ont sans aucun doute influencé des sociétés à travers l’Asie et en Europe et à leur tour ont absorbé des influences à la fois de l’Orient et de l’Occident dans un véritable échange de valeurs humaines. Critère (iii) : À la base de tout le développement de la vallée de l’Orkhon sur les deux derniers millénaires se trouve une culture solide de pastoralisme nomade. Cette culture est toujours une pièce maîtresse révérée de la société mongole et elle est hautement respectée en tant que mode de vie « noble » en harmonie avec le paysage.

Critère (iv) : La vallée de l’Orkhon est un exemple exceptionnel de vallée illustrant plusieurs étapes significatives de l’histoire humaine. Avant tout, elle était le centre de l’empire mongol. En second lieu, elle reflète une variation du pouvoir turc propre à la Mongolie. En troisième lieu, le monastère de l’ermitage de Tuvkhun fut le berceau du développement d’une forme mongole du bouddhisme. Quatrièmement, Kharabalgas reflète la culture urbaine ouïgoure de la capitale de l’empire ouïgour. Bibliography:

1979- Kathmandu Valley / Vallée de Kathmandu (Criteria C (iii) (iv) (vi) At the crossroads of the great civilizations of Asia, seven groups of Hindu and Buddhist monuments, as well as the three residential and palace areas of the royal cities of Kathmandu, Patan and Bhaktapur, illustrate Nepalese art at its height. Among the 130 monuments are pilgrimage centres, temples, shrines, bathing sites and gardens – all sites of veneration for both religious groups.

Inscription on the List of World Heritage in Danger: 2003 Threats to the Site: The exceptional architectural design of Kathmandu, Patan and Bhaktapur is gradually disappearing due to uncontrolled urban development.

Au carrefour des grandes civilisations de l'Asie, sept groupes de monuments hindous et bouddhiques, ainsi que les trois zones résidentielles des villes royales de Kathmandu, de Patan et de Bhaktapur, montrent l'art népalais à son apogée. Parmi les 130 monuments, on trouve des lieux de pèlerinage,

131

des temples, des sanctuaires, des bains et des jardins qui sont autant de sites vénérés par les deux groupes religieux.

1997- Lumbini, the Birthplace of the Lord Buddha / Lumbini, lieu de naissance du Bouddha (Criteria C (iii) (vi)

Siddhartha Gautama, the Lord Buddha, was born in 623 B.C. in the famous gardens of Lumbini, which soon became a place of pilgrimage. Among the pilgrims was the Indian emperor Ashoka, who erected one of his commemorative pillars there. The site is now being developed as a Buddhist pilgrimage centre, where the archaeological remains associated with the birth of the Lord Buddha form a central feature.

Justification for Inscription The Committee decided to inscribe this site on the basis of criteria (iii) and (vi). As the birthplace of the Lord Buddha, the sacred area of Lumbini is one of the holiest places of one of the world's great religions, and its remains contain important evidence about the nature of Buddhist pilgrimage centres from a very early period.

Siddharta Gautama, le Bouddha, est né en 623 av. J.-C. dans les célèbres jardins de Lumbini et son lieu de naissance est devenu un lieu de pèlerinage. Parmi les pèlerins se trouvait l'empereur indien Asoka qui a fait édifier à cet endroit l'un de ses piliers commémoratifs. Le site est maintenant un foyer de pèlerinage centré sur les vestiges associés au début du bouddhisme et à la naissance du Bouddha.

Justification d'inscription Le Comité a décidé d'inscrire ce site sur la base des critères (iii) et (vi). En tant que lieu de naissance de Bouddha, la zone sacrée de Lumbini est l'un des lieux empreints de la plus haute sainteté pour l'une des premières religions du monde. Ses vestiges témoignent largement de la nature même des centres de pèlerinage bouddhistes depuis des temps immémoriaux. Bibliography:

NEW ZEALAND / NOUVELLE ZÉLANDE

1990- Te Wahipounamu - South West New Zealand / Te Wahipounamu - zone sud-ouest de la Nouvelle-Zélande (Criteria N (i) (ii) (iii) (iv)

The landscape in this park, situated in south-west New Zealand, has been shaped by successive glaciations into fjords, rocky coasts, towering cliffs, lakes and waterfalls. Two-thirds of the park is covered with southern beech and podocarps, some of which are over 800 years old. The kea, the only alpine parrot in the world, lives in the park, as does the rare and endangered takahe, a large flightless bird. Dans le sud-ouest de la Nouvelle-Zélande, ce parc offre un paysage, modelé par les glaciations successives, de fjords, de côtes rocheuses, de hautes falaises, de lacs et de cascades. Les deux tiers de sa superficie sont recouverts de forêts de hêtres méridionaux et de podocarpes, dont certains ont plus de 800 ans. On y trouve le kea, unique perroquet alpin du monde, ainsi que le takahe, gros oiseau coureur, rare et menacé. 1993- Tongariro National Park / Parc national de Tongariro (Criteria N (ii) (iii) C (vi) In 1993 Tongariro became the first property to be inscribed on the World Heritage List under the revised criteria describing cultural landscapes. The mountains at the heart of the park have cultural and religious significance for the Maori people and symbolize the spiritual links between this community and its environment. The park has active and extinct volcanoes, a diverse range of ecosystems and some spectacular landscapes. En 1993, Tongariro est devenu le premier bien inscrit sur la Liste du patrimoine mondial au titre du critère culturel révisé concernant des paysages culturels. Les montagnes situées au centre du parc ont une signification culturelle et religieuse pour le peuple maori et symbolisent les liens spirituels entre cette communauté humaine et son environnement. Le parc contient des volcans en activité et éteints, une gamme variée d'écosystèmes et des paysages particulièrement spectaculaires.

1998- New Zealand Sub-Antarctic Islands / Iles sub-antarctiques de Nouvelle-Zélande (Criteria N (ii) (iv)

The New Zealand Sub-Antarctic Islands consist of five island groups (the Snares, Bounty Islands, Antipodes Islands, Auckland Islands and Campbell Island) in the Southern Ocean south-east of New Zealand. The islands, lying between the Antarctic and Subtropical Convergences and the seas, have a high level of productivity, biodiversity, wildlife population densities and endemism among birds, plants and invertebrates. They are particularly notable for the large number and diversity of pelagic seabirds and penguins that nest there. There are 126 bird species in total, including 40 seabirds of which five breed nowhere else in the world.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (ii): The New Zealand Sub-Antarctic Islands display a pattern of immigration of species, diversifications and emergent endemism, offering particularly good opportunities for research into the dynamics of island ecology. Criterion (iv): The New Zealand Sub-Antarctic Islands are remarkable for their high level of biodiversity, population densities,and for endemism in birds, plants and invertebrates. The bird and plant life, especially the endemic albatrosses, cormorants, landbirds and “megaherbs” are unique to the islands.

Le site se compose de cinq archipels (les îles Snares, Bounty, Antipodes, Auckland et Campbell) situés dans l'océan Austral, au sud-est de la Nouvelle-Zélande. Les îles se trouvant entre les convergences antarctique et subtropicale, la productivité marine est très élevée, il y a une riche diversité biologique, de fortes densités de population pour la faune sauvage et un important endémisme des espèces d'oiseaux, de plantes et d'invertébrés. Elles sont particulièrement remarquables pour l'abondance et la diversité des oiseaux pélagiques et des manchots nicheurs. On y

138

trouve 126 espèces d'oiseaux au total, dont 40 d'oiseaux marins parmi lesquelles 5 ne se reproduisent nulle part ailleurs.

Justification d'inscription Critère ii : Les iles sub-antarctiques de Nouvelle-Zélande présentent une structure d’immigration des espèces, de diversification et d’endémisme émergent. Critère iv : Les iles sub-antarctiques de Nouvelle-Zélande sont remarquables du point de vue de la diversité biologique très élevée, des densités de populations et de l’endémisme des oiseaux, des plantes et des invertébrés. L’avifaune et les plantes, notamment les albatros endémiques, les cormorans, les oiseaux terrestres et les «mégaherbes» sont uniques dans ces îles. Bibliography:

1980- Archaeological Ruins at Moenjodaro / Ruines archéologiques de Mohenjo Daro (Criteria C (ii) (iii) The ruins of the huge city of Moenjodaro – built entirely of unbaked brick in the 3rd millennium B.C. – lie in the Indus valley. The acropolis, set on high embankments, the ramparts, and the lower town, which is laid out according to strict rules, provide evidence of an early system of town planning. Ce site conserve les ruines d'une ville immense de la vallée de l'Indus, entièrement construite en brique crue et remontant au IIIe millénaire av. J.-C. Son acropole, élevée sur d'énormes remblais, ses remparts et la rigueur du plan de sa ville basse témoignent d'un urbanisme strictement planifié.

1980- Taxila / Taxila (Criteria C (iii) (vi) From the ancient Neolithic tumulus of Saraikala to the ramparts of Sirkap (2nd century B.C.) and the city of Sirsukh (1st century A.D.), Taxila illustrates the different stages in the development of a city on the Indus that was alternately influenced by Persia, Greece and Central Asia and which, from the 5th century B.C. to the 2nd century A.D., was an important Buddhist centre of learning. Du très ancien tumulus néolithique de Saraikala aux remparts de Sirkap, datant du IIe siècle av. J.-C., et à la ville de Sirsukh, du Ier siècle apr. J.-C., Taxila illustre les étapes du développement urbain d'une ville de l'Indus soumise tour à tour aux influences de la Perse, du monde hellénique et de l'Asie centrale, et qui, du VIe siècle av. J.-C. au IIe siècle de l'ère chrétienne, fut le siège d'une université bouddhique florissante.

1980- Buddhist Ruins of Takht-i-Bahi and Neighbouring City Remains at Sahr-i-Bahlol / Ruines bouddhiques de Takht-i-Bahi et vestiges de Sahr-i-Bahlol (Criteria C (iv)

The Buddhist monastic complex of Takht-i-Bahi (Throne of Origins) was founded in the early 1st century. Owing to its location on the crest of a high hill, it escaped successive invasions and is still exceptionally well preserved. Nearby are the ruins of Sahr-i-Bahlol, a small fortified city dating from the same period. L'ensemble du monastère bouddhique de Takht-i-Bahi (ou « trône de la source ») a été fondé au début du Ier siècle. Grâce à son emplacement sur la crête d'une haute colline, il a échappé aux invasions successives, ce qui explique son état de préservation exceptionnel. Les ruines voisines de Sahr-i-Bahlol témoignent de la présence d'une petite ville fortifiée datant de la même période. Bibliography:

1981-Fort and Shalamar Gardens in Lahore / Fort et jardins de Shalimar à Lahore (Criteria C (i) (ii) (iii) These are two masterpieces from the time of the brilliant Mughal civilization, which reached its height during the reign of the Emperor Shah Jahan. The fort contains marble palaces and mosques decorated with mosaics and gilt. The elegance of these splendid gardens, built near the city of Lahore on three terraces with lodges, waterfalls and large ornamental ponds, is unequalled.

Inscription on the List of World Heritage in Danger: 2000 Threats to the Site: Tanks built 375 years ago to supply water to the Garden's fountains were destroyed in June 1999 to widen the road which borders the gardens on their south side. The perimeter walls of the Garden are also deteriorating. In view of the damage observed and the threat facing the site, the Committee decided to inscribe it on the List of World Heritage in Danger, in response to a request from the Pakistani government that the international community take action to safeguard the site.

146

In its letter requesting the action, the Government of Pakistan expressed its appreciation for continued assistance from the World Heritage Committee and the World Heritage Centre for the conservation and development of the Shalamar Gardens. By nominating the property on the List of World Heritage in Danger, the State Party expressed its hope to increase public awareness both nationally and internationally on the importance of preserving this Moghul exemplary site of World Heritage of value, which continues to be a living cultural heritage site.

Il s'agit de deux chefs-d'œuvre de la brillante civilisation moghole à son apogée, au temps de l'empereur Shah Jahan. Le fort de Lahore renferme des palais et mosquées de marbre, ornés de mosaïques et de dorures. À proximité de la ville, les merveilleux jardins de Shalimar étagés sur trois terrasses, avec des pavillons, des cascades et de vastes pièces d'eau, sont d'un raffinement sans égal.

Inscription de biens sur la Liste du Patrimoine Mondial en péril: 2000 Menaces sur le bien: Des réservoirs vieux de 375 ans - qui alimentaient en eau les fontaines des jardins - ont été détruits en juin 1999 pour élargir une route qui longe les jardins au Sud. Les murailles du jardin ont également été détériorées. Face aux atteintes déjà constatées et aux menaces pesant sur le site, le Comité a décidé de son inscription sur la Liste du patrimoine mondial en péril, répondant ainsi à la demande du gouvernement pakistanais de mobiliser la communauté internationale en faveur de la sauvegarde du site.

1997 Rohtas Fort / Fort de Rohtas (Criteria C (ii) (iv) Following his defeat of the Mughal emperor Humayun in 1541, Sher Shah Suri built a strong fortified complex at Rohtas, a strategic site in the north of what is now Pakistan. It was never taken by storm and has survived intact to the present day. The main fortifications consist of the massive walls, which extend for more than 4 km; they are lined with bastions and pierced by monumental gateways. Rohtas Fort, also called Qila Rohtas, is an exceptional example of early Muslim military architecture in Central and South Asia.

Justification for Inscription The Committee decided to inscribe this property on the basis of criteria (ii) and (iv), considering that the Rohtas Fort is an exceptional example of the Muslim military architecture of central and south Asia, which blends architectural and artistic traditions from Turkey and the Indian sub-continent to create the model for Mughal architecture and its subsequent refinements and adaptations.

Après avoir vaincu l'empereur moghol Humayun en 1541, Sher Shah Suri a construit un ensemble d'ouvrages défensifs à Rohtas, site stratégique dans le nord de l'actuel Pakistan. Le fort de Rohtas n'a jamais été pris d'assaut et subsiste intact aujourd'hui. Les fortifications principales sont constituées de murs massifs qui s'étendent sur plus de 4 km ; elles comportent des bastions et sont percées de portes monumentales. Le fort de Rohtas, ou Qila Rohtas, est un exemple exceptionnel des débuts de l'architecture militaire musulmane dans cette région d'Asie.

Justification d'inscription Le Comité a décidé d'inscrire ce bien sur la base des critères (ii) et (iv). Le Fort de Rohtas représente un exemple exceptionnel de l’architecture militaire musulmane dans le centre et le sud de l’Asie, incorporant les traditions architecturales et artistiques de la Turquie et du sous-continent indien pour créer le modèle de l’architecture moghole qui sera raffiné et remodelé par la suite.

1995- Seokguram Grotto and Bulguksa Temple / Grotte de Seokguram et temple Bulguksa (Criteria C (i) (iv)

Established in the 8th century on the slopes of Mount T'oham, the Seokguram Grotto contains a monumental statue of the Buddha looking at the sea in the bhumisparsha mudra position. With the surrounding portrayals of gods, Bodhisattvas and disciples, all realistically and delicately sculpted in high and low relief, it is considered a masterpiece of Buddhist art in the Far East. The Temple of Bulguksa (built in 774) and the Seokguram Grotto form a religious architectural complex of exceptional significance. Aménagée au VIIIe siècle sur les pentes du mont T'oham, la grotte de Seokguram renferme une statue monumentale de Bouddha regardant la mer dans la position bhumisparsha mudra. Avec les représentations de divinités, de bodhisattva et de disciples qui l'entourent, sculptées en hauts reliefs et bas reliefs avec délicatesse et réalisme, c'est un chef-d'œuvre de l'art bouddhique d'Extrême-Orient. Le temple de Bulguksa, construit en 774, forme avec la grotte un ensemble d'architecture religieuse d'une valeur exceptionnelle. 1995- Haeinsa Temple Janggyeong Panjeon, the Depositories for the Tripitaka Koreana Woodblocks / Temple d'Haeinsa Janggyeong Panjeon, les dépôts des tablettes du Tripitaka Koreana (Criteria C (iv) (vi) The Temple of Haeinsa, on Mount Kaya, is home to the Tripitaka Koreana, the most complete collection of Buddhist texts, engraved on 80,000 woodblocks between 1237 and 1248. The buildings of Janggyeong Pangeon, which date from the 15th century, were constructed to house the woodblocks, which are also revered as exceptional works of art. As the oldest depository of the Tripitaka, they reveal an astonishing mastery of the invention and implementation of the conservation techniques used to preserve these woodblocks. Le temple d'Haeinsa, sur le mont Kaya, abrite le Tripitaka Koreana, collection la plus complète de textes du canon bouddhiste, gravés sur 80 000 tablettes de bois entre 1237 et 1248. Destinés à recevoir ces tablettes – documents vénérés autant qu'œuvre d'art exceptionnelle –, les bâtiments du Janggyeong Panjeon datent du XVe siècle et sont les plus anciens dépôts du Tripitaka. Ils démontrent une maîtrise stupéfiante dans la conception et la mise en œuvre des techniques de conservation de ces tablettes de bois. Bibliography:

1995- Jongmyo Shrine / Sanctuaire de Jongmyo (Criteria C (iv) Jongmyo is the oldest and most authentic of the Confucian royal shrines to have been preserved. Dedicated to the forefathers of the Choson dynasty (1392–1910), the shrine has existed in its present form since the 16th century and houses tablets bearing the teachings of members of the former royal family. Ritual ceremonies linking music, song and dance still take place there, perpetuating a tradition that goes back to the 14th century. Jongmyo, dédié aux ancêtres de la dynastie Choson (1392-1910), est le plus ancien et le plus authentique des sanctuaires royaux confucéens conservés aujourd'hui. Son aspect actuel date du XVIe siècle. Il abrite des tablettes portant les enseignements des membres de l'ancienne famille royale. Des cérémonies rituelles associant musique, chant et danse s'y déroulent encore, perpétuant une tradition remontant au XIVe siècle.

1997- Changdeokgung Palace Complex / Ensemble du palais de Changdeokgung (Criteria C (ii) (iii) (iv) In the early 15th century, the Emperor T'aejong ordered the construction of a new palace at an auspicious site. A Bureau of Palace Construction was set up to create the complex, consisting of a number of official and residential buildings set in a garden that was cleverly adapted to the uneven topography of the 58-ha site. The result is an exceptional example of Far Eastern palace architecture and design, blending harmoniously with the surrounding landscape.

Justification for Inscription The Committee decided to inscribe this property on the basis of criteria (ii), (iii) and (iv), considering that the Ch'angdokkung Palace Compound is an outstanding example of Far Eastern palace architecture and garden design, exceptional for the way in which the buildings are integrated into and harmonized with the natural setting, adapting to the topography and retaining indigenous tree cover.

Au début du XVe siècle, l'empereur T'aejong a ordonné la construction d'un nouveau palais dans un lieu propice. Un office de construction du palais a été établi afin de créer cet ensemble constitué d'un certain nombre de bâtiments officiels et résidentiels édifiés dans un jardin minutieusement adapté à la topographie irrégulière du site, d'une superficie de 58 ha. Le résultat est un exemple exceptionnel de la conception extrême-orientale de l'architecture des palais, harmonieusement intégrée à son cadre naturel.

Justification d'inscription Le Comité a décidé d'inscrire ce bien sur la base des critères (ii), (iii) et (iv). L'ensemble du palais de Ch'angdokkung est un exemple remarquable de la conception extrême orientale de l'architecture et du paysagisme. Exceptionnel en raison de l'intégration et de l'harmonie de ses bâtiments vis-à-vis de l'environnement naturel, il est adapté à la topographie et conserve des essences d'arbres locales.

1997- Hwaseong Fortress / Forteresse de Hwaseong (Criteria C (ii) (iii) When the Choson emperor Chongjo moved his father's tomb to Suwon at the end of the 18th century, he surrounded it with strong defensive works, laid out according to the precepts of an influential military architect of the period, who brought together the latest developments in the field from both East and West. The massive walls, extending for nearly 6 km, still survive; they are pierced by four gates and equipped with bastions, artillery towers and other features.

Justification for Inscription The Committee decided to inscribe this property on the basis of criteria (ii) and (iii), considering that the Hwasong Fortress is an outstanding example of early modern military architecture, incorporating the most highly developed features of that science from both east and west.

Lorsque l'empereur Chongjo, de la dynastie Choson, a transféré le tombeau de son père à Suwon à la fin du XVIIIe siècle, il l'a entouré d'importants ouvrages défensifs conçus selon les préceptes d'un influent architecte militaire de l'époque, qui alliait les dernières découvertes de l'Orient et de l'Occident en ce domaine. Les remparts massifs, qui s'étendent sur presque 6 km, percés de quatre portes et dotés de bastions, de tours d'artillerie et d'autres éléments, subsistent toujours.

Justification d'inscription Le Comité a décidé d'inscrire ce site sur la base des critères (ii) et (iii).

2000- Gyeongju Historic Areas / Zones historiques de Gyeongju (Criteria C (ii) (iii)

155

The Gyeongju Historic Areas contain a remarkable concentration of outstanding examples of Korean Buddhist art, in the form of sculptures, reliefs, pagodas, and the remains of temples and palaces from the flowering, in particular between the 7th and 10th centuries, of this form of unique artistic expression.

Justification for Inscription Criterion ii The Kyongju Historic Areas contain a number of sites and monuments of exceptional significance in the development of Buddhist and secular architecture in Korea. Criterion iii The Korean peninsula was ruled for nearly a thousand years by the Shilla dynasty, and the sites and monuments in and around Kyongju (including the holy mountain of Namsan) bear outstanding testimony to its cultural achievements.

Les zones historiques de Gyeongju contiennent une remarquable concentration d'exemples exceptionnels de l'art bouddhiste coréen sous forme de sculptures, de reliefs, de pagodes et de vestiges de temples et de palais datant de la période qui a vu s'épanouir cette forme d'expression artistique unique, en particulier du VIIe au Xe siècle.

Justification d'inscription Critère ii Les zones historiques de Kyongju possèdent un nombre de sites et de monuments d’une importance exceptionnelle dans le développement de l’architecture bouddhiste et séculière coréenne. Critère iii La péninsule coréenne fut sous le contrôle de la dynastie de Silla pendant presque mille ans et les sites et monuments situés à l’intérieur et à l’extérieur de Kyongju (incluant la montagne sacrée de Namsan) sont le témoignage remarquable de ses réussites culturelles.

2000- Gochang, Hwasun, and Ganghwa Dolmen Sites / Sites de dolmens de Gochang, Hwasun et Ganghwa (Criteria C (iii) The prehistoric cemeteries at Gochang, Hwasun, and Ganghwa contain many hundreds of examples of dolmens - tombs from the 1st millennium B.C. constructed of large stone slabs. They form part of the Megalithic culture, found in many parts of the world, but nowhere in such a concentrated form.

Justification for Inscription Criterion iii The global prehistoric technological and social phenomenon that resulted in the appearance in the 2nd and 3rd millennia BCE of funerary and ritual monuments constructed of large stones (the “Megalithic Culture”) is nowhere more vividly illustrated than in the dolmen cemeteries of Koch’ang, Hwasun, and Kangwha.

Les cimetières préhistoriques de Gochang, Hwasun et Ganghwa abritent des centaines de dolmens – sépultures faites d'énormes dalles de pierre datant du Ier millénaire av. J.-C.. Ils appartiennent à la culture mégalithique que l'on retrouve en de nombreux autres endroits du globe, mais jamais en si forte concentration.

SOLOMON ISLANDS / ILES SALOMON

1998- East Rennell / Rennell Est (Criteria N (ii) East Rennell makes up the southern third of Rennell Island, the southernmost island in the Solomon Island group in the western Pacific. Rennell, 86 km long x 15 km wide, is the largest raised coral atoll in the world. The site includes approximately 37,000 ha and a marine area extending 3 nautical miles to sea. A major feature of the island is Lake Tegano, which was the former lagoon on the atoll. The lake, the largest in the insular Pacific (15,500 ha), is brackish and contains many rugged limestone islands and endemic species. Rennell is mostly covered with dense forest, with a canopy averaging 20 m in height. Combined with the strong climatic effects of frequent cyclones, the site is a true natural laboratory for scientific study. The site is under customary land ownership and management.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (ii): East Rennell, as a stepping stone in the migration and evolution of species in the western Pacific, is an important site for the science of island biogeography. Combined with the strong climate effects of frequent cyclones, East Rennell is a true natural laboratory for scientific study.

Rennell Est est situé dans le tiers méridional de Rennell, île la plus australe de l'archipel des Salomon. Rennell est le plus grand atoll corallien surélevé du monde avec ses 86 km de long et 15 km de large. Le site couvre environ 37 000 ha et un secteur marin s'étendant jusqu'à trois milles nautiques. Une des caractéristiques principales de l'île est le lac Tegano, ancien lagon de l'atoll et le plus grand lac du Pacifique insulaire (15 500 ha). Il est saumâtre et contient de nombreuses îles calcaires accidentées. Rennell est essentiellement couverte de forêts denses dont la canopée atteint 20 m de hauteur en moyenne. Avec les effets climatiques marqués de cyclones fréquents, le site est un véritable laboratoire naturel pour l'étude scientifique. C'est la coutume qui régit la propriété et la gestion du site.

Justification d'inscription Critère ii : Rennell Est présente des processus écologiques et biologiques significatifs en cours et constitue un site important pour la science, en particulier la biogéographie insulaire. Avec les effets climatiques marqués de cyclones fréquents, le site est un véritable laboratoire naturel pour l'étude scientifique.

SRI LANKA

1982- Sacred City of Anuradhapura /Ville sainte d'Anuradhapura (Criteria C (ii) (iii) (vi) This sacred city was established around a cutting from the 'tree of enlightenment', the Buddha's fig tree, brought there in the 3rd century B.C. by Sanghamitta, the founder of an order of Buddhist nuns. Anuradhapura, a Ceylonese political and religious capital that flourished for 1,300 years, was abandoned after an invasion in 993. Hidden away in dense jungle for many years, the splendid site, with its palaces, monasteries and monuments, is now accessible once again. Cette ville sacrée s'est établie autour d'une bouture de l'« arbre de l'éveil », le figuier de Bouddha, dont la bouture fut apportée au IIIe siècle av. J.-C. par Sanghamitta, fondatrice d'un ordre bouddhiste féminin. Anuradhapura, capitale politique et religieuse de Ceylan pendant 1 300 ans, a été abandonnée en 993 à la suite d'invasions. Longtemps ensevelie sous une jungle épaisse, la ville, avec ses palais, ses monastères et autres monuments, est de nouveau accessible dans son site admirable. Bibliography:

1982- Ancient City of Sigiriya / Ville ancienne de Sigiriya (Criteria C (ii) (iii) (iv)

The ruins of the capital built by the parricidal King Kassapa I (477–95) lie on the steep slopes and at the summit of a granite peak standing some 370 m high (the 'Lion's Rock', which dominates the jungle from all sides). A series of galleries and staircases emerging from the mouth of a gigantic lion constructed of bricks and plaster provide access to the site. Sur les pentes abruptes et au sommet d'un rocher de pierre rouge haut de 370 m, le « Rocher du Lion », qui domine la jungle de toutes parts, subsistent les ruines de la citadelle dont le roi parricide Kassyapa (477-495) fit sa capitale. Une série de galeries et d'escaliers qui débouchent dans la gueule d'un lion colossal construit en brique et en plâtre permettent d'accéder au site.

1988- Sacred City of Kandy / Ville sacrée de Kandy (Criteria C (iv) (vi) This sacred Buddhist site, popularly known as the city of Senkadagalapura, was the last capital of the Sinhala kings whose patronage enabled the Dinahala culture to flourish for more than 2,500 years until the occupation of Sri Lanka by the British in 1815. It is also the site of the Temple of the Tooth Relic (the sacred tooth of the Buddha), which is a famous pilgrimage site. Ce site sacré du bouddhisme, communément appelé « ville de Senkadagalapura », a été la dernière capitale des rois de Sinhala dont le mécénat a permis à la culture de Dinahala de s'épanouir pendant plus de 2 500 ans, jusqu'à l'occupation de Sri Lanka par les Britanniques en 1815. C'est aussi le site du temple de la Dent du Bouddha, célèbre lieu de pèlerinage.

1988- Old Town of Galle and its Fortifications / Vieille ville de Galle et ses fortifications (Criteria C (iv) Founded in the 16th century by the Portuguese, Galle reached the height of its development in the 18th century, before the arrival of the British. It is the best example of a fortified city built by Europeans in South and South-East Asia, showing the interaction between European architectural styles and South Asian traditions. Fondée au XVIe siècle par les Portugais, Galle a atteint son apogée au XVIIIe siècle, avant l'arrivée des Britanniques. C'est le meilleur exemple d'une ville fortifiée construite par les Européens en Asie du Sud et du Sud-Est qui illustre l'interaction entre l'architecture européenne et les traditions de l'Asie du Sud.

TURKMENISTAN / TURKMÉNISTAN 1999- State Historical and Cultural Park "Ancient Merv" / Parc national historique et culturel de l’« Ancienne Merv » (Criteria C (ii) (iii) Merv is the oldest and best-preserved of the oasis-cities along the Silk Route in Central Asia. The remains in this vast oasis span 4,000 years of human history. A number of monuments are still visible, particularly from the last two millennia.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (ii): The cities of the Merv oasis have exerted considerable influence over the cultures of Central Asia and Iran for four millennia. The Seljuk city in particular influenced architecture and architectural decoration and scientific and cultural development. Criterion (iii): The sequence of the cities of the Merv oasis, their fortifications, and their urban lay-outs bear exceptional testimony to the civilizations of Central Asia over several millennia.

Merv est la plus ancienne et la mieux préservée des cités-oasis le long de la Route de la soie en Asie centrale. Les vestiges de cette vaste oasis couvrent quatre milliers d'années d'histoire humaine, et un certain nombre de monuments, particulièrement des deux derniers millénaires, restent visibles.

Justification d'inscription Critère ii Les villes de l’oasis de Merv ont exercé une influence considérable sur les cultures d’Asie centrale et d’Iran depuis quatre millénaires. La ville seldjoukide, en particulier, a influencé l’architecture et la décoration architecturale, ainsi que le développement scientifique et culturel. Critère iii La séquence des cités de l’oasis de Merv, leurs fortifications et leur paysage urbain sont des témoins exceptionnels des civilisations d’Asie centrale sur plusieurs millénaires.

UZBEKISTAN / OUZBÉKISTAN 1990- Itchan Kala / Itchan Kala (Criteria C (iii) (iv) (v) Itchan Kala is the inner town (protected by brick walls some 10 m high) of the old Khiva oasis, which was the last resting-place of caravans before crossing the desert to Iran. Although few very old monuments still remain, it is a coherent and well-preserved example of the Muslim architecture of Central Asia. There are several outstanding structures such as the Djuma Mosque, the mausoleums and the madrasas and the two magnificent palaces built at the beginning of the 19th century by Alla-Kulli-Khan. Itchan Kala est la ville intérieure, retranchée derrière des murailles de brique hautes d'une dizaine de mètres, de l'ancienne oasis de Khiva, qui était l'ultime étape des caravaniers avant de traverser le désert en direction de l'Iran. Bien qu'ayant conservé peu de monuments très anciens, elle constitue un exemple cohérent et bien préservé d'architecture musulmane de l'Asie centrale avec des constructions remarquables comme la mosquée Djouma, les mausolées et les medersa et les deux magnifiques palais édifiés au début du XIXe siècle par le khan Alla-Kouli.

VIET NAM / VIETNAM 1993- Complex of Hué Monuments / Ensemble de monuments de Huê (Criteria C (iii) (iv)

Established as the capital of unified Viet Nam in 1802, Hué was not only the political but also the cultural and religious centre under the Nguyen dynasty until 1945. The Perfume River winds its way through the Capital City, the Imperial City, the Forbidden Purple City and the Inner City, giving this unique feudal capital a setting of great natural beauty. Établie comme capitale du Viet Nam unifié en 1802, la ville de Huê a été non seulement le centre politique mais aussi le centre culturel et religieux sous la dynastie Nguyên, jusqu'en 1945. La rivière des Parfums serpente à travers la cité-capitale, la cité impériale, la cité pourpre interdite et la cité intérieure, ajoutant la beauté de la nature à cette capitale féodale unique.

1999- My Son Sanctuary / Sanctuaire de Mi-sön (Criteria C (ii) (iii) Between the 4th and 13th centuries a unique culture which owed its spiritual origins to Indian Hinduism developed on the coast of contemporary Viet Nam. This is graphically illustrated by the remains of a series of impressive tower-temples located in a dramatic site that was the religious and political capital of the Champa Kingdom for most of its existence.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (ii): The My Son Sanctuary is an exceptional example of cultural interchange, with the introduction the Hindu architecture of the Indian sub-continent into South-East Asia. Criterion (iii):The Champa Kingdom was an important phenomenon in the political and cultural history of South-East Asia, vividly illustrated by the ruins of My Son.

Du IVe au XIIIe siècle, la côte du Viet Nam contemporain accueillait une culture unique, associée par ses racines spirituelles à l'hindouisme indien. Cette relation est illustrée par les vestiges d'une série d'impressionnantes tours-sanctuaires, au cœur d'un site remarquable qui fut pendant quasiment toute son existence la capitale religieuse et politique du royaume de Champâ.

Justification d'inscription Critère ii :Le sanctuaire de Mi-sön est un exemple exceptionnel d’échange culturel, de par l’introduction de l’architecture hindoue du sous-continent indien en Asie du Sud-Est. Critère iii :Le royaume de Champâ était un important phénomène de l’histoire politique et culturelle de l’Asie du Sud-Est, comme en témoignent remarquablement les ruines de Mi-sön.

2003-Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park / Parc national de Phong Nha-Ke Bang (Criteria N (i) The karst formation of Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park has evolved since the Palaeozoic (some 400 million years ago) and so is the oldest major karst area in Asia. Subject to massive tectonic changes, the park’s karst landscape is extremely complex with many geomorphic features of considerable significance. The vast area, extending to the border of the Lao People’s Democratic Republic, contains spectacular formations including 65 km of caves and underground rivers.

Justification for Inscription Criterion (i): Phong Nha is part of a larger dissected plateau, which also encompasses the Ke Bang and Hin Namno karsts. The limestone is not continuous and demonstrates complex interbedding with shales and sandstones. This, together with the capping of schists and apparent granites has led to a particularly distinctive topography. The caves demonstrate discrete episodic sequences of events, leaving behind various levels of fossil passages, formerly buried and now uncovered palaeokarst (karst from previous, perhaps very ancient, periods of solution); evidence of major changes in the routes of underground rivers; changes in the solutional regime; deposition and later re-solution of giant

184

speleothems and unusual features such as sub-aerial stromatolites. The location and form of the caves suggests that they might owe much of their size and morphology to some as yet undetermined implications of the schists and granites which overlay the limestone. On the surface, there is a striking series of landscapes, ranging from deeply dissected ranges and plateaux to an immense polje. There is evidence of at least one period of hydrothermal activity in the evolution of this ancient mature karst system. The plateau is probably one of the finest and most distinctive examples of a complex karst landform in SE Asia. In summary, Phong Nha displays an impressive amount of evidence of earth’s history. It is a site of very great importance for increasing our understanding of the geologic, geomorphic and geo-chronological history of the region.

La formation karstique du Parc national de Phong Nha-Ke Bang a évolué depuis le paléozoïque (il y a environ 400 millions d’années) et c’est la plus ancienne région karstique importante en Asie. Suite aux changements tectoniques importants, le paysage karstique du parc est extrêmement complexe et présente de nombreuses caractéristiques géomorphologiques très importantes. Ce vaste paysage, qui s’étend jusqu’à la frontière de la République démocratique populaire lao, offre des phénomènes spectaculaires, dont de nombreuses grottes et rivières souterraines s’étendant sur plus de 65 kilomètres.

Justification d'inscription Critère (i): Le Phong Nha correspond plutôt à une partie d'un plateau plus étendu qui englobe également les zones karstiques de Ke Bang et de Hin Namno. Le dépôt calcaire n’est pas continu : on constate une interstratification complexe avec des schistes et des grès. Avec la chape de schistes et de granits apparents, tout cela donne une topographique très particulière. Les grottes témoignent d’événements qui se sont produits en épisodes distincts et séquentiels et qui ont laissé divers étages fossilifères ; elles présentent un paléokarst anciennement recouvert et maintenant à l'air libre (karst de périodes de solution antérieures, peut-être très anciennes), des preuves d'importants changements de direction des cours d'eau souterrains, de changement du régime de solution; elles témoignent enfin de dépôts, puis de la re-solution de spéléothèmes géants et autres caractéristiques inhabituelles comme des stromatolites. La situation et la forme des grottes semble indiquer qu'elles doivent probablement beaucoup de leur taille et de leur morphologie à une intervention encore inconnue des couches de schiste et de granit qui recouvrent le calcaire. La surface présente un contraste saisissant de paysages allant de chaînes de montagne très découpées, à des plateaux, et à un énorme polje. Il y a des preuves d'au moins une période d'activité hydrothermique dans l'évolution de cet ancien système karstique. Le plateau est probablement l'un des plus beaux et plus singuliers exemples de formation karstique complexe en Asie du sud-est. En résumé, Phong Nha présente un nombre impressionnant de témoignages de l'histoire de la Terre. Cependant, il s'agit d'un site d'une importance considérable pour améliorer nos connaissances de l'histoire géologique, géomorphique et géochronologique de la région.
