World Heritage Day is a special day on April 18th when people all around the world celebrate important places that belong to everyone on Earth. These places can be old buildings, like castles and temples, or natural wonders, like big forests or mountains. They are called "heritages" because they have important stories and history that we want to remember and protect. On this day, people learn about these places and how to take care of them so future generations can enjoy and learn from them too. It's like a big planet-wide party to appreciate and preserve Earth's amazing treasures!
