Summary

Terraced landscapes, found globally in steep mountain and coastal areas, represent significant multi-disciplinary values that have gained increasing recognition for their importance. A study on the 'Penisola Sorrentino – Amalfitana' case highlights that mere preservation efforts are insufficient; instead, complex strategies integrating these terraces with other touristic attractions are necessary for effective safeguarding. This insight is drawn from a broader understanding of terraced landscapes, which includes notable UNESCO World Heritage Sites like the Italian Cinque Terre and Costiera Amalfitana.
