Conservation issues presented to the World Heritage Committee in 2005
The World Heritage Centre has received the Management Plan from the State Party by letter dated 1 February 2005. The State Party also provided on 30 March 2005 revised maps of the property that do not include the two museums.
ICOMOS studied the Management Plan for the World Heritage property. It noted that the chapter on visitor management provides little information and should include more detail on the following: parking, ticketing, signage, safety measures, facilities (bathrooms, rest areas, sun shades, and water), food facilities, shops/souvenirs, different touring options and routes, and presentation methods. It is suggested that this complementary information is presented on clear maps in a scale sufficient to recognize location, size, etc. accompanied by photographs.
