Based upon the UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scietific, and Cultural Organization) World Heritage Committee list of 851 properties forming part of the cultural and natural heritage which the World Heritage Committee considers as having "outstanding universal value," I suggest BRAZIL (10 cultural, 7 natural sites).

You may choose from the 17 Brazilian sites listed below.  With each site is a link to information, including descriptions for each and at least one photograph for each (most have links to a number of photographs):
