Sightseeing in sites of Cultural Heritage

A tour around cultural heritage sites evolves bonds between natural and cultural wealth in the consciousness of the visitor, since environment and civilization are indissolubly tied to each other, which can easily be ascertained by a visitor; e.g. an open-air museum or archaeological site, where the monuments coexist harmonically with nature.

The discovery of the natural, historical and artistic wealth –which are also elements of its social cohesion and quality of life- is an opportunity for the visitor to comprehend the history, direction and significance of each site.
