Answer:
Cultural environments are a remarkable cultural, social and economic resource. They are important for the identities and well-being of people. Cultural environments and the features particular to them provide a unique edge to regions and places, serve as the foundation of the development of local communities and create business opportunities.
Cultural environments are environments shaped by human activities, such as cultural landscapes in the countryside, forests, urban areas and cities, fixed archaeological structures on land or water, constructions and built environments from different ages, along with bridges, roads, power lines and industrial and harbour areas.
On the one hand, cultural environments are a non-renewable resource, on the other hand, they are in a constant state of renewal and development. When changing and developing valuable cultural environments or creating new cultural environments or parts thereof, the values of the existing environment are a good starting point. What is lost once in a cultural environment, will remain lost forever.
