The Need To Protect The World Heritage Sites In Oman

Some of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Oman are threatened due to population growth and encroachment of settlements near the World Heritage Sites. As such, the government of the country has set up bodies to protect and preserve the sites. The World Heritage Sites in the country are major crowd pullers and attract history and heritage lovers from across the globe to Oman.
