 LANDMARK FACTS
● A landmark is a structure that has significant historical,
architectural or cultural meaning and has been given legal
protection from alteration and destruction.
● Landmarks often have a sign with information explaining
their importance.
● Landmarks are usually classified as either natural or
man-made landmarks, both were originally used to support
navigation and finding direction.
● Landmark preservation laws vary by country but they have the
same basic purpose: to keep landmarks as close to their
original condition as possible.
● Once a landmark has been designated, the owner may not
change the structure without the express approval of the
government or a lawful authority.
 LANDMARK FACTS
● There are some famous landmarks that travelers are not
allowed to photograph for commercial use. These include:
○ The Eiffel tower at night
○ The interior and exterior of The Louvre and I.M. Pei’s
Pyramid whether day or night.
○ The exterior of Notre Dame de Paris. The interior may be
photographed with permission.
○ Photographs of the Burning Man Festival, including the
grounds, structures and identifiable features within the
temporary Black Rock City.
○ Las Vegas Hotels.
○ Photography of the Sydney Opera House is restricted
unless it is part of a cityscape where it is visible.
○ Photography of Ayers Rock (Uluru and Kata Tjuta) is
restricted.
○ The Sistine Chapel.
● Thanks to their landmarks, these many places have become
top cities frequently visited by tourists. As per CNN, these are:
Hongkong (26.55 mil), Bangkok (21.25 mil), London (19.19
mil), Singapore (16.6 mil), Macau (15.39 mil), Dubai (14.9
