(La cultura está formada por la geografía, la historia y los recursos de un lugar.) "Places, in turn, are shaped by the cultures that inhabit them, creating unique cultural landscapes." (A su vez, los lugares son formados por las culturas que los habitan, creando paisajes culturales únicos.) Part 3: Cultural Heritage and Globalization Let's explore the significance of cultural heritage and the impact of globalization: "Cultural heritage, encompassing tangible and intangible aspects of culture, is a vital link to our past and forms our identity." (El patrimonio cultural, que engloba aspectos tangibles e intangibles de la cultura, es un vínculo vital con nuestro pasado y forma nuestra identidad.) "Globalization, while promoting cultural exchange, can also lead to the erosion of cultural diversity if not managed sensitively." (La globalización, si bien promueve el intercambio cultural, también puede llevar a la erosión de la diversidad cultural si no se maneja con sensibilidad.)
