摘要：Cultural landscape is a hybrid system having natural-anthropogenic character. It is a result of man and human society activities in a particular space and time. Natural landscape is reshaped by purposeful activities into cultural one, which has all properties of material culture, landscape architecture, and spiritual values. Historical landscape structures with the signs of previous generations activities seem to be a signifiant phenomenon in the present. However, these are overlapped with new features and human products having modern utility and cultural values. The anthropogenic relief, urban and traff elements, economic and communications systems, as well as spiritual culture belong towards the essential features of cultural landscape. They represent diffrentiated land use forms projected into the heterogeneous land cover consisting of cultural landscape diversity, biodiversity, elements of human culture, ideology and art. Cultural landscape is the subject of interest of each nation, but also UNESCO organisation, which creates the conditions and principles for a global registry, preservation and reconstruction of cultural heritage. Under UNESCO, each state is responsible for cultural and natural heritage that represents the culture of his ancestors but also contemporary society.
