Features: In 2006, the World Heritage Committee inscribed the Yinxu in Anyang, Henan and the Giant Panda Habitat in Wolong, Sichuan, of China onto the World Heritage List. This brought the number of China's World Heritage sites, including both cultural and natural heritage, to 33. The Chinese civilization has a long history and abundant heritage resources. These invaluable treasures are not only the pride of the Chinese people but also a common treasure of the world. To better promote and carry forward these heritages, the "Walking in China" series has launched this book, aiming to showcase the natural and humanistic essence of these 33 World Heritage sites to readers through rich textual introductions, heart-stirring image displays, and incisive value analysis. It allows readers to experience profound spiritual shocks while learning about the long history and splendid heritage of their motherland. At the same time, it also inspires a solemn sense of mission to promote the spiritual and cultural heritage of the nation and protect the shared heritage of humanity.
