Q. UNESCO World Heritage Site Upper Middle Rhine Valley is located in which country?
Answer: Germany
Notes: Germany houses the UNESCO World Heritage Site "Upper Middle Rhine Valley". The strategic location of the dramatic 65km stretch of the Middle Rhine Valley between Bingen, Rudesheim und Koblenz as a transport artery and the prosperity that this engendered is reflected in its sixty small towns, the extensive terraced vineyards and the ruins of castles that once defended its trade. As a transport route, the Rhine has served as a link between the southern and northern halves of the continent since prehistoric times, enabling trade and cultural exchange, which in turn led to the establishment of settlements. Condensed into a very small area, these subsequently joined up to form chains of villages and small towns. For over a 1,000 years the steep valley sides have been terraced for vineyards.
