What to Focus On
- Heritage = Valuable gift from forefathers to present generations
- Culture = Total of habits, values, customs, traditions, and ideals of human life

- Natural heritage = Result of close relationship between nature, environment, and human life
- Four components: Landscapes, Rivers, Vegetation, and Wildlife

Common Mistakes to Avoid
