History and Heritage

History and heritage are important in our life. They help us to understand the past and remember it. History is about the things that happened in the past and the people who did them. Heritage is about the things that we get from our parents and grandparents, like old buildings and traditions. Some cities have a lot of history and heritage, like Rome, Athens, and Paris. People visit these cities to see old buildings and learn about the past. In schools, we learn history from books and teachers. We also learn how to protect our heritage.
