It reflects not just its history, identity, but also its urban heritage that contains several tangible values.

Therefore, there is a dire need to classify the existing international policies for histori-cal sites, aiming to effectively control on tangible heritage preser-vation. After the introduction of the background problem, this research will present the literature on global vision for conserva-tion management policy.
