Ayrton,
The current official world heritage sites are listed at:
http://whc.unesco.org/nwhc/pages/sites/main.htm
If you have the opportunity, one of those would be great.
I think the sites you mention are from the tentative list and those
are ones that may become 'official' in the future. These would be a
great addition to our project, but if you have the chance to get to
one of the others that would be nice too.
Unfortunately I don't know Brazil well enough to point out the Palais
de la Culture. I would guess that a 'Cultural Landscape' would be
something along the lines of the one that you did for the first WWP
or Carnival or something like that (of course, I realize the timing
is wrong).
Hope this helps.
