REPUBLIKA.CO.ID, BANDUNG -- UNESCO's Fact Finding Mission will evaluate Ciletuh Geopark in Pelabuhan Ratu, West Java before it can be named as one of UNESCO's Global Geoparks by the end of 2017.

"That team will check every single aspect of Ciletuh Geopark, including the local transport infrastructure, the signage on the roads and the quality of the official guide materials," said the Administration Assistant for Economic Affairs and Development for West Java, Denny Juanda, on Wednesday.

Denny added that the team from UNESCO will also check three main criteria; geodiversity, biodiversity and cultural diversity. 

According to Denny, 13 main tourist sites from a total of 24 are usually frequented by visitors to the geopark.

Ciletuh Geopark has many natural attractions for visitors, including beaches, mountains, waterfalls and rivers. As well as being a popular tourist attraction, Ciletuh Geopark is also a place of interest for the study of natural science and geology.
