Let UNESCO be your guide

If the recently deemed seven wonders of the world aren’t enough, consider adding 851 UNESCO World Heritage sites to your must-see list. The U.N. body just added 22 sites, including the Sydney Opera House and the old town of Corfu on the Greek island of the same name, each singled out for its architectural splendor. Obscure newcomers: the rain forests of the Atsinanana on Madagascar, Jeju volcanic islands and lava tubes in Korea and Gobustan rock art in Azerbaijan. And the Arabian Oryx Sanctuary (which protects an antelope-like animal) in Oman was dropped because, according to the World Heritage’s website, the country failed to preserve it. The list is at whc.unesco.org.
