NEW ZEALAND
This cover from New Zealand depicts 3 different stamps with some views of the world heritage site Te Wahipounamu - South West New Zealand. Inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1990 and covering 26,000 square kilometres (10,000 sq mi), the site incorporates four national parks: Aoraki / Mount Cook, Fiordland, Mount Aspiring and Westland Tai Poutini. It is thought to contain some of the best modern representations of the original flora and fauna of Gondwana, one of the reasons for its listing as a World Heritage site.
