World Heritage of Nepal.

The world Heritage list was established under terms of the convention concerning the protection of the world cultural and Neutral Heritage adopted on November16, 1972 at the 17th session of the General conference of UNESCO held in Paris from October 17 to November21, 1972. Government of Nepal accepted the convention on June 20, 1978. There are 175states who are signatory to the convention as of September 28, 2002.Thus, the convention is one of the most universally accepted international legal instruments for the protection of heritage. Nepal is rich in both natural and cultural heritage is economically poor country as per the global standards. Its per capital gross domestic product is US 240 for the year 2000/2001. On top of it its gross notional happiness has also been decreased visible with the increasing number of casualties. It would be a wishful thinking to put a price tag on the sagamatha, or on the 5-story temple.
