PARIS - The National Council for Tourism and Antiquities (NCTA) and the Abu Dhabi Authority for Culture and Heritage (ADACH) have announced the registration of the Al Ain City, in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, as the first Emirati site on the World Heritage List. The inscription was due to the unique and distinguished cultural sites in Al Ain, with particular reference being made to the geological, archaeological and historical importance of Jebel Hafit, Hili cultural landscape, Bidaa Bint Saud, the Oases areas, and the Falaj system. These sites provide the Al Ain City with the types of perfection and diversity that are difficult to find in other places of this kind in the world. In addition, an integrated scientific dossier was prepared in accordance with the international standards provided by the ADACH for over 6 years since it was established. This registration came during the 35th session of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee, which is held in Paris from 19 to 29 June 2011. |
