Culture

UNESCO works to support and strengthen the capacity of national authorities to protect, preserve and promote Pakistan’s cultural heritage – both tangible and intangible. Pakistan is home to six important sites which are inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage Site List, and three cultural practices that are recognised by the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage List.
