Six months? Twelve months? No. If you visit one famous place every day, it will take you fifteen months! At the moment there are more than 460 heritage sites around the world from Albania to Zimbabwe. Some of them are man-made, such as Machu Picchu in Peru, others are natural, for example the Los Glaciares National Park in Argentina. However, every site is important because each one is part of everyone’s past, present and future. Unfortunately, our children and grandchildren may not have a chance to visit many of these places. They are damaged by wars, weather, age, traffic and pollution. However, one of the biggest problems for them is vandalism. Some people, visiting the attractions, destroy or damage them. They sometimes spray paint on the walls of the buildings or steal valuable items like mosaics. At some sites, such as Stonehenge in England, governments have built high fences to protect the site from vandals. But high fences are very ugly and very unfriendly. So, experts suggest some other ideas about how to solve the problem of vandalism. Guards, dogs and television cameras are among them. The problem is that all these solutions are very expensive. Other experts say that the best solution is education. When people are taught to respect their history, they will not destroy or damage it, but preserve it. In 1972 countries around the world united to form The World Heritage Organisation. Today, the organisation helps to maintain and restore the most important attractions from our history and spreads the information about the value of historic sites. 4.2 Conjunctions.
