I am now retired but have been "travelling" for a "hobby" since I was 15 (1957!) whilst pursuing otherwise normal mundane career and "home" things in UK - thus being limited by "annual leave" allowances. During that time I have visited 164 "independent countries" - defined by me as the 193 full UN members plus (somewhat illogically, but they are generally accepted as "sovereign") Taiwan and Holy See (but am not pursuing "193"!). Unfortunately quite a few relatively easily accessible current WHS got "missed" along the way. If only I had known they would get chosen - they are not all obvious choices! Despite the weaknesses in the list and the politics involved in the selection and voting mechanism they provide a quick means of grasping the highlights of many countries and sometimes lead down interesting knowledge and research "avenues" which would otherwise have remain unexplored.
Proposal for a new WHS:- Roca Agostino Neto Cocoa Plantation Sao Tome.
There are just too many European WHS relative to the rest. Little Sao Tome became the world's greatest producer of cocoa under the Portuguese. So poor were the social conditions that Cadbury boycotted Cocoa from there in early 20C. At Roca Agostinho (and other crumbling colonial sites on Sao Tome) you might just get a feeling for the economic system which created it and "fed" Europe with a raw material so often taken for granted - a really atmospheric place. But it isn't even on the "Tentative list"!
My most impressive site: Machu Picchu. I would like to choose somewhere

Reviews by Solivagant


The Castle of Bashtova (On tentative list)
The Castle of Bashtova
Albania is a country which seems to “dribble” in additions to its T List, unlike others which have wholesale revisions every 10 years or so. In 2017 Bashotva Castle was …

Donana National Park (Inscribed)
Donana National Park
A few extra points to those made by earlier reviewers about visiting the Donana WHS.
a. There are still unanswered “issues” regarding the inscribed boundaries of this WHS which …

Antequera Dolmens Site (Inscribed)
Antequera Dolmens Site
WH Travellers who have visited or are planning a visit to the Antequera Dolmen might be interested in a couple of “mysteries” concerning what they saw/will see which haven’t as …

The Wine in Iberia (On tentative list)
The Wine in Iberia
Whilst planning a trip to Andalusia in May 2018, with the primary objective of revisiting its WHS, we took the opportunity to dive into the further reaches of its T …

Gorham's Cave Complex (Inscribed)
Gorham's Cave Complex
As indicated in previous reviews, there is no really satisfactory answer as to how best to “visit” the Gorham’s Cave WHS. In May 18 we decided from the start NOT …

The Ancient City of Apollonia (On tentative list)
The Ancient City of Apollonia
I will try not to repeat observations made by Stanislaw in his review but there are some additional aspects which, I think, are worth covering. In summary - the impression …

Les tombes de la Basse Selca (On tentative list)
Les tombes de la Basse Selca
We visited “Les Tombes de la Basse Selca” in April 2018 following our decision to try to “fill in” all of Albania’s current T List, as well as its inscribed, …

Zagori Cultural Landscape (Inscribed)
Zagori Cultural Landscape
This Website currently suggests that Zagorochoria - North Pindos National Park (NP) will be nominated at the 2020 WHC. I can find no evidence for this, and the announcement in …

Daphni, Hosios Loukas and Nea… (Inscribed)
Daphni, Hosios Loukas and Nea Moni of Chios
As indicated in previous reviews, for many years it has only been possible to make very limited visits to the Monastery of Daphni, situated in the Western suburbs of Athens, …

Thungyai-Huai Kha Khaeng (Inscribed)
Thungyai-Huai Kha Khaeng
The first problem regarding our intended visit to Thungyai - Huai Kha Khaeng Wildlife Sanctuaries (HKK) was where exactly to enter this very large site, most of which is remote …

Ban Chiang (Inscribed)
Ban Chiang
Oh, how I love WHS like Ban Chiang (BC) - It may not offer iconic monuments but it is relatively infrequently visited and uncrowded and covers a lesser known but …

Kaeng Krachan Forest (Inscribed)
Kaeng Krachan Forest
Kaeng Kratchen Forest Compex (KKFC) consists of 5 contiguous parks and reserves (including Kaeng Kratchen NP) situated along Thailand’s border with Myanmar at the very top of the Malay Peninsula …

The Slate Landscape of Northw… (Inscribed)
The Slate Landscape of Northwest Wales
I don’t normally review sites from UK but, having just returned from a visit to the “Slate Industry of N Wales” T List site, I was surprised to note that …

Tarnowskie Góry Lead-Silver-Z… (Inscribed)
Tarnowskie Góry Lead-Silver-Zinc Mine
Our original, already ambitious, objective was to “sweep up” all 18 of our unvisited WHS (plus selected T List and some “revisits”) in Pol/Cz/Sk/Hun in 15 days - and then …

Białowieża Forest (Inscribed)
Białowieża Forest
In common with Nan, we felt that we were arriving at Bialowieza (Sept 17) without a clear picture of the best way to see this WHS, despite a fair bit …

Mountain-top Hotel and Televi… (On tentative list)
Mountain-top Hotel and Television Transmitter Ješt
“20th C technology” and “post WWII architecture” are 2 under-represented inscribed themes. Czechia’s Jested TV Mast could help to fill both gaps, so we decided to take a look as …

Krzemionki prehistoric flint … (Inscribed)
Krzemionki prehistoric flint mines
Back in Aug 2015, our visit to Spiennes had been enhanced by a talk from a Polish academic who was assisting with the ongoing excavations there and just happened to …

W-Arly-Pendjari Complex (Inscribed)
W-Arly-Pendjari Complex
We visited Pendjari NP back in Jan 2007 during a tour of Benin, Togo and B Faso. It was interesting to experience a West African “wildlife park” but our conclusions …

Gamzigrad-Romuliana (Inscribed)
Gamzigrad-Romuliana
None of the 4 previous reviews of this WHS has mentioned a visit to Magura - the hill situated 1km to the east of the Palace (but still within the …
