UN VIENNA

This cover from UN Vienna depicts 4 stamps (of the same type) celebrating the World Heritage Site Nemrut Dag. Mount Nemrut or Nemrud is a 2,134-metre-high mountain in southeastern Turkey, notable for the summit where a number of large statues are erected around what is assumed to be a royal tomb from the 1st century BC. It is one of the highest peaks in the east of the Taurus Mountains. It was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987.
