Honduras ratified the UNESCO World Heritage Convention on June 8, 1979, and has since inscribed both cultural and natural sites.
Its cultural heritage is anchored by the Maya archaeological site of Copán, reflecting ancient urban civilization and monumental art. Its natural inscription, the Río Plátano Biosphere Reserve, highlights dense tropical rainforests, wildlife conservation, and indigenous stewardship within a biologically rich ecosystem.
