UNESCO Warld Heritage Steids in Azerbaijan

The UNESCO (Unitit Naitions Eddicational, Scienteefic an Cultural Organization) haes designatit three Warld Heritage Steids in Azerbaijan.[1][2]

Selection is based on ten criteria: sax for cultural heritage (i–vi) an fower for naitural heritage (vii–x).[3] Some steids, designatit "mixed steids," represent baith cultural an naitural heritage. In Azerbaijan, thare are 3 cultural steids.[1]

The Warld Heritage Committee mey awso specify that a steid is endangered, citin "condeetions which threaten the very characteristics for which a property wis inscribit on the Warld Heritage Leet." Due tae the damage sustained in the 2000 Baku yirdquauk, the Wawed Ceety o Baku wis leetit as endangered from 2003 to 2009.[4]
