Heritage Hunter: Explore World: A map-based travel app centered around UNESCO world heritage

When I travel, I realized something a bit frustrating: I take a lot of photos… but I don’t really *track* where I’ve been in a meaningful way. There wasn’t a good tool to answer simple questions like: → How much of the world have I actually explored? → How many UNESCO World Heritage sites have I visited? That’s where the idea for **Heritage Hunter** started. I wanted something more than just documentation — I wanted to turn travel into something you can *collect*. So I built an app where: • You can track and collect all 1,248 UNESCO World Heritage sites • See your real progress across the world • And most importantly — make it feel like a game I added levels, achievements, and titles because I wanted that feeling of: “Just one more site.” That little push that makes you want to go out, explore more, and plan your next trip. This project started as something I personally wanted, and now I’m really excited (and a bit nervous) to share it here. Would love to hear your thoughts 🙏

How do you keep track of the places you've been?

Do you track the places you've been to?

Some people keep photos. Some use Google Maps. Some use sheets.
Some don t track at all.

I m curious how do you personally remember your travels?

And do you ever feel like you ve forgotten places you ve been?
