Venezuelan UNESCO World Heritage Sites

The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela accepted the UNESCO convention on 30 October 1990. There are three World Heritage Sites in the country, with a further three on the tentative list. The first site in Venezuela added to the list was Coro and its Port, in 1993. The site has been listed as endangered since 2005 because of the damage caused by heavy rains in the previous year and because of new constructions that threaten the integrity of the property. The most recent site listed was the Ciudad Universitaria de Caracas, in 2000. Coro and the Ciudad Universitaria are cultural sites while the Canaima National Park, listed in 1994, is a natural site.
