UNESCO has designated 25 new sites as World Heritage Sites, recognizing their outstanding universal value. The additions include a mix of cultural and natural locations, with 19 cultural sites, five natural sites, and one that combines both. Several countries, including Comoros, São Tomé and Príncipe, and South Sudan, have earned their first World Heritage inscriptions. The list also features well-known destinations like the D-Day beaches of Normandy and Mount Olympus, alongside less familiar sites such as the Xiongnu burial grounds in Mongolia and Brazil's Amazonian theaters.
