为了保持世界遗产的地区性均衡,鼓励没有世界遗产的国家和地区加入到申报的行列,从2001年起,对于已有世界遗产的国家,世界遗产委员会原则上只接受一项申报。面对这种新的情况,中国调整了世界遗产的申报策略,将同一类型的遗址或者遗迹,作为同一个世界遗产来申报,于是中国有了明清皇家陵寝和苏州古典园林等容纳了多个遗产地的世界文化遗产。此做法也得到了联合国教科文组织的认可。今年在苏州召开的28届世界遗产大会上,中国的清沈阳故宫和清盛京三陵,将分别作为明清故宫和明清皇家陵寝的扩展项目,予以审议。为了能够顺利进入“世界文化遗产”的行列,当地政府做出了积极的努力。 In order to maintain the regional balance of world heritage and to encourage countries and regions without world heritage to join the declaration, since 2001, for countries with World Heritage sites, the World Heritage Committee accepts in principle only one declaration. Faced with this new situation, China adjusted its declaration policy on World Heritage sites and declared the same type of sites or relics as one and the same World Heritage Site. As a result, China now has a number of royal tombs in the Ming and Qing dynasties and Suzhou Classical Gardens, Heritage World Heritage Site. This approach has also been recognized by UNESCO. At the 28th World Heritage Convention held in Suzhou this year, the Qing Imperial Palace of the People’s Republic of China and the Ming Tombs of the Qing Dynasty in Beijing will be examined separately as an extension of the Imperial Palace in the Ming and Qing Dynasties and the imperial tombs of the Ming and Qing dynasties. In order to successfully enter the ranks of the “World Cultural Heritage”, the local government made a positive effort.
