UNESCO has been identifying and listing World Heritage Sites for more than thirty years. The "List", to help preserve places of world importance in cultural and natural history, includes 27 in the United Kingdom - everything from castles and factories to prehistoric landscapes.

If you are planning to tour the UK, the UNESCO list makes an excellent starting point, including, as it does, some of Britain's most beautiful and awe inspiring places. Check out our run down of the UNESCO sites before you plan your touring vacation.
