New World Heritage Sites Two theatres in the Amazon region to become Unesco world heritage sites

Two historic theaters in Brazil's Amazon region—the Teatro Amazonas in Manaus and the Theatro da Paz in Belém—have been recognized as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. These theaters, built during the 'Golden Age' of the Amazon between 1879 and 1912, reflect the architectural influence of French and European styles combined with motifs from the Amazon region. They symbolize the political and urban ambitions of the time. This recognition marks the first cultural sites from northern Brazil to be added to the UNESCO World Heritage List, bringing Brazil’s total to 26 sites. The UNESCO World Heritage Committee met in Busan, South Korea, to approve new additions to the global list, which now includes over 1,273 cultural and natural sites across more than 170 countries.
