522 ES - Renaissance Monumental Ensembles of Úbeda and Baeza (2003)

Brief Description

"The urban morphology of the two small cities of Úbeda and Baeza in southern Spain dates back to the Moorish 9th century and to the Reconquista in the 13th century. An important development took place in the 16th century, when the cities were subject to renovation along the lines of the emerging Renaissance. This planning intervention was part of the introduction into Spain of new humanistic ideas from Italy, which went on to have a great influence on the architecture of Latin America."

乌韦达和巴埃萨城文艺复兴时期的建筑群

"在西班牙南部坐落着两个小城——乌韦达和巴埃萨，对于当地城市形态学的研究可以追溯到公元9世 纪摩尔人统治时期以及公元13世纪的收复领土时期。到了公元16世纪，随着文艺复兴运动的发展，当地也出现了文艺复兴的形势，使这两个小城得到了重大发 展。这种有计划的影响其实就是新人文主义思想从意大利被介绍到了西班牙，这一思想后来从西班牙带到了拉丁美洲，对那里的建筑一直产生着巨大影响。"

742 CO - Historic Centre of Santa Cruz de Mompox (1995)

Brief Description

"Founded in 1540 on the banks of the River Magdalena, Mompox played a key role in the Spanish colonization of northern South America. From the 16th to the 19th century the city developed parallel to the river, with the main street acting as a dyke. The historic centre has preserved the harmony and unity of the urban landscape. Most of the buildings are still used for their original purposes, providing an exceptional picture of what a Spanish colonial city was like."

1121 CO - Coffee Cultural Landscape of Colombia (2011)

Brief Description

"An exceptional example of a sustainable and productive cultural landscape that is unique and representative of a tradition that is a strong symbol for coffee growing areas worldwide - encompasses six farming landscapes, which include 18 urban centres on the foothills of the western and central ranges of the Cordillera de los Andes in the west of the country. It reflects a centennial tradition of coffee growing in small plots in the high forest and the way farmers have adapted cultivation to difficult mountain conditions. The urban areas, mainly situated on the relatively flat tops of hills above sloping coffee fields, are characterized by the architecture of the Antioquian colonization with Spanish influence. Building materials were, and remain in some areas, cob and pleated cane for the walls with clay tiles for the roofs."

577 AU - Heard and McDonald Islands (1997)

Brief Description

"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."

赫德岛和麦克唐纳群岛

"赫德岛和麦克唐纳群岛位于南大洋，距南极洲约1700公里，离佩思(Perth)西南部约 4100公里。作为亚南极唯一的活火山群岛，这两个岛屿打开了“地球心底之窗”，为人类提供了观察正在进行的地貌变化过程和冰河运动的机会。对于赫德岛和 麦克唐纳群岛与众不同的保护价值在于，该群岛保留了世界罕见的早期岛屿生态系统，它从未受到过来自本生态系统外的生物影响，也没有受到过人类的影响。"
