What is the role of cultural heritage in landscape architecture?

The role of cultural heritage in landscape architecture is significant as it involves incorporating the cultural values, traditions, and beliefs of a community into the design of public and private spaces. Cultural heritage can provide a sense of place and identity to a landscape, creating a connection between the people and the environment. This can be achieved through the use of materials, symbols, and elements that are representative of a particular culture, as well as through the preservation of historic and significant locations. By recognizing and incorporating cultural heritage into the landscape design, a landscape architect can create a more meaningful and sustainable space that reflects the community's identity and values.
