Over the past 33 years, UNESCO has designated 890 world heritage sites based on cultural or natural heritage and having outstanding universal value, including 16 new sites just added last month.
Hawaii is represented on the list with Hawaii Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island of Hawaii. Anyone who has ever visited the park will certainly agree to the designation. It is one of the most remarkable places on earth and the only place where the earth grows every day of the year.
