"Quanzhou: Emporium of the World in Song-Yuan China" was inscribed onto the UNESCO World Heritage List on Sunday during the ongoing 44th Session of the World Heritage Committee hosted in Fuzhou, Fujian province, bringing the total number of the country's UNESCO World Heritage sites to 56.

7月25日，正在福建福州召开的第44届世界文化遗产大会正式将中国"泉州：宋元中国的世界海洋商贸中心"项目列入 世界遗产名录　，成为中国第56处世界遗产。

The new entry includes 22 sites and monuments across Quanzhou, which reflect a prosperous picture of maritime trade from the 10th to 14th centuries.

泉州系列遗产由22处古迹遗址构成，它们共同展现了10-14世纪高度繁荣的海上贸易的场景。

The Song (960-1279) and Yuan (1271-1368) dynasties witnessed a peak in ancient Chinese maritime trade, and Quanzhou, then known overseas as Zayton, grew into one of the busiest seaports in the world.

宋元时期见证了中国古代海上贸易的鼎盛时期，当时的"刺桐港"是世界上最繁忙的海港之一，刺桐就是现在的泉州。

The 22 representative historic monuments and sites include administrative buildings and structures; facilities showing the city's structure, such as its gates, walls and roads; religious sites and statues that witnessed multicultural communities; cultural memorial sites and monuments; iron and ceramic production sites and the city's transportation network formed by bridges, docks and pagodas that guided voyages.

22处申遗点包括行政管理机构遗址，由城门、城墙、路网等构成的城市格局关键设施遗迹，多元社群宗教建筑和造像，文化纪念地史迹，陶瓷和冶铁生产基地，以及由桥梁、码头、航标塔组成的水陆交通网络。
