"SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — The Okefenokee Swamp in Georgia, an ornate
13th-century Buddhist temple in Thailand and tidal flats in western South Korea
were among several sites added to the World Heritage List on Saturday at a U.N.
committee meeting in South Korea.

The UNESCO meetings in Busan, which continue through next Wednesday, are
reviewing dozens of other nominations, including the D-Day landing beaches in
France, Mount Olympus in Greece and the ancient Japanese capitals of
Asuka-Fujiwara."
