Muğla Karabağlar Yaylası’nın Kadim Üretim ve Peyzaj Değerlerinin Dünya Kültürel Peyzaj Alanları Çerçevesinde Değerlendirilmesi

Muğla Karabağlar Yaylası demonstrates significant potential for inclusion in the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage List as a cultural landscape, owing to its unique micro-climatic conditions, rich biodiversity, including endemic species and agricultural diversity, and distinctive rural architectural typology. The study evaluates the plateau's eligibility using qualitative comparative analysis, comparing it with two established UNESCO sites: Honghe Hani Rice Terraces and Diyarbakır Fortress and Hevsel Gardens. Findings suggest that its sensitive ecosystem, cultural identity, and production values align closely with UNESCO criteria for cultural landscapes, positioning it as a strong candidate for future recognition.
