If heritage is a commodity, then charge for it and use the funds to preserve it. If heritage is a 'cultural right' then expect the rights-holders to maintain it. It is infamous that places like Pompeii are handled so badly. It's much the same as my problem with Stonehenge, there is no consistency in applying access. Does being a World Heritage Site have no responsibilities to maintain the sites?
