Four Natural Wonders Added to World Heritage List


The United Nations has added four new nature sites to the UNESCO World Heritage List, meaning they have been found to be “superlative natural phenomena”, which is one of the selection criteria. The new sites are the Kenya Lake System (pictured), Japan’s Ogasawara Islands, Australia’s Ningaloo Coast, and the Wadi Rum Protected Area in Jordan.

See photographs of these beautiful areas at National Geographic News.
