1592 CN - Archaeological Ruins of Liangzhu City (2019)
Description
“Located in the Yangtze River Basin on the south-eastern coast of the country, the archaeological ruins of Liangzhu (about 3,300-2,300 BCE) reveal an early regional state with a unified belief system based on rice cultivation in Late Neolithic China. The property is composed of four areas – the Area of Yaoshan Site, the Area of High-dam at the Mouth of the Valley, the Area of Low-dam on the Plain and the Area of City Site. These ruins are an outstanding example of early urban civilization expressed in earthen monuments, urban planning, a water conservation system and a social hierarchy expressed in differentiated burials in cemeteries within the property.”
良渚古城遗址
“位于中国东南沿海长江三角洲的良渚古城遗址（约公元前3300-2300年）向人们展示了新石器时代晚期一个以稻作农业为支撑、具有统一信仰的早期区域性国家。该遗址由4个部分组成：瑶山遗址区、谷口高坝区、平原低坝区和城址区。通过大型土质建筑、城市规划、水利系统以及不同墓葬形式所体现的社会等级制度，这些遗址成为早期城市文明的杰出范例。”

1606 CN - Migratory Bird Sanctuaries along the Coast of Yellow Sea-Bohai Gulf of China (Phase I) (2019)
Description
“The property features an intertidal mudflat system considered to be the largest in the world. These mudflats, as well as marshes and shoals, are exceptionally productive and serve as growth areas for many species of fish and crustaceans. The intertidal areas of the Yellow Sea/Gulf of Bohai are of global importance for the gathering of many migratory bird species that use the East Asian-Australasian flyway. Large gatherings of birds, including some of the world's most endangered species, depend on the coastline as a stopover to moult, rest, winter or nest.”

TR1397 - Sümela Monastery (The Monastery of Virgin Mary) (2000)
"Sumela is a monastic complex built into the rock cliffs of the Altmdere
Valley. It is construction began in 385 AD; and continued until the 19
th century. Barnabas, a monk from Athens and his nephew Sophronios built
the section which comprised the first two rooms of the monastry in
rocks. The Byzantine Emperor Justinian (AD 527-568) ordered the
enlagement of the monastery.
The monastery was looted and burnt by the Byzantines in AD 650. However
the Comnenids restored and enlarged the monastey.
The monastery with its 72 rooms and a rich library, lived its most
flourishing time during the period of Alexios III 8 Michael I."

1572 TR - Göbekli Tepe (2018)
Göbekli Tepe
"Located in the Germuş mountains of south-eastern Anatolia, this property presents monumental round-oval and rectangular megalithic structures erected by hunter-gatherers in the Pre-Pottery Neolithic age between 9,600 and 8,200 BCE. These monuments were probably used in connection with rituals, most likely of a funerary nature. Distinctive T-shaped pillars are carved with images of wild animals, providing insight into the way of life and beliefs of people living in Upper Mesopotamia about 11,500 years ago."
哥贝克力石阵
“该遗产地位于安纳托利亚东南部的Germuş山脉，特征为巨大的圆形和矩形巨石结构，据信为狩猎采集者在公元前9600-8200年之前的陶器新石器时代竖立，被称为城邑。这些古迹很可能与丧葬仪式有关，独特的T形柱子上刻有野生动物的图像，从中可以窥见约1.15万年前生活在上美索不达米亚的人类的生活方式和信仰。”
