This project explores the significance of heritage sites by mapping their geographical context and comparing their historical and architectural features. It assesses their cultural and economic value through tourism impact and local job creation, while emphasizing cross-cultural learning aligned with Sustainable Development Goal 4. Additionally, it connects these sites to SDGs 8, 11, and 12, recommending sustainable conservation practices and concluding with a comparative concept map to...
