My UNESCO WHS List

This blog puts together some of my passions: travelling, especially to UNESCO World Heritage Sites (WHS); philately (collecting stamps); deltiology (collecting postcards); and doing research into TUIs (i.e., totally useless information) of things that interest me. Hence, it catalogues UNESCO WHS that I have been to, stamps showing UNESCO WHS that I have, as well as postcards featuring UNESCO WHS that I have received (i.e., stamped and posted) and maxicards and postal cards (both used or unused).

The Bergpark Wilhelmshöhe WHS is a park constructed on a dramatic hillside topography, located in the state of Hesse. Earliest construction of the site began in 1689CE and it was further developed into the 19th century CE. Dominated by a giant statue of Hercules, a cleverly-designed hydraulic system supplies water to all parts of the park, including its water features like fountains, channels, waterways, waterfalls, and rapids.
