1. *1 Cultural properties that are cross-listed in multiple categories such as "Sites" and "Places of Scenic Beauty" or on "Places of Scenic Beauty" and "Animals, plants, geological and mineral formations" are included in each of the categories. Therefore, the number on the table may not correspond to the actual number of cultural properties.
2. *2 "Sites" include "Historic Sites".
3. *3 "Preservation Districts for Groups of Traditional Buildings" may include duplicates as there are cases in which prefectures select districts from the districts decided by municipalities.
4. *4 Some cultural properties designated/selected by municipal governments may be cross listed as registered cultural properties as they are designated or selected from the registered cultural properties.
