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 Canadian Rocky Mountains Park WHS is comprised of four contiguous Canadian national parks (Banff, Jasper, Kootenay, and Yoho) as well as three other nearby provincial parks (Hamber, Mount Assiniboine, and Mount Robson) of British Columbia, Canada. The area contains outstanding geological features as well as habitats of rare and endangered flora and fauna. Included in the site is the Burgess Shale WHS, which was a WHS in its own tight between 1980 and 1984, when it was incorporated into this WHS.
