UNESCO World Heritage Sites with Uniworld

The UNESCO World Heritage is a great way to get inspired for your next trip with Uniworld! To become a World Heritage Site, a place must be determined to have “outstanding universal value.” Each one promises deep cultural significance and is likely to be one of the most interesting places you can visit—not just in a given town, but in the world.

Pick a UNESCO World Heritage Site to Plan Your Trip with Uniworld Cruises:

In ancient times, Trier was the largest Roman settlement north of the Alps. On tour through the UNESCO-designated city, you’ll visit two basilicas built by Emperor Constantine in 306 CE and the imposing Porta Nigra.

Kinderdijk is particularly charming in the springtime, when the town’s historic collection of 19 traditional windmills is surrounded by colorful fields of blooming tulips. It makes for a postcard-worthy, typical Dutch scene.

Part of what makes Castle Hill special, according to UNESCO, is the influence its monuments had on the architecture of various periods—from the Gothic structures of Buda Castle to the Neo-Romanesque Fisherman’s Bastion.

See on Delightful Danube

 
Traversing a spectacular natural landscape, this railway boasts the first standard gauge mountain track in Europe, 16 viaducts, and 15 tunnels—all of such quality engineering that the path has been in continuous use since opening in 1854.

Considered one of the New 7 Wonders of the World, the rose-hued city of Petra has been inhabited since 7,000 BCE. Wander the architectural site to marvel at the intricately carved entrances to temples cut straight into rock faces.
