World Heritage in China (English Edition): 56 UNESCO Sites Through Maps – China on the Map Series

From the Great Wall and the Forbidden City to Mogao Caves, the Terracotta Warriors, Potala Palace, Suzhou Gardens and Fujian Tulou — 56 Sites Across Four Categories, Illustrated with Maps and Photos
This is not a travel guide, and it is not a dense academic study of heritage policy. It is a map-driven introduction to the 56 places in China that UNESCO has recognised as part of the world‘s shared heritage—from the Great Wall and the Forbidden City to the Mogao Caves, the Terracotta Warriors, the Potala Palace, the classical gardens of Suzhou, and the earthen buildings of Fujian. The book groups them into four categories—cultural sites, cultural landscapes, natural sites, and mixed sites—and uses maps, photographs, and clear text to show you where each one is, what makes it special, and why it matters. If you want to see China’s World Heritage as a connected map rather than a scattered checklist—and understand what each site actually is—this is it.
