Emphasis is placed on how places are experienced, but are also created through conceptualisation and imagining: place is not only the physicality of being 'here', but also imagined through layers of memories, often of other places, and sometimes grounded in the memory of others. Specific reference is made to the Port Arthur Historic Site, which is conceptualised variously as convict heritage place (World Heritage nominated), community place, tragedy place and tourism place. The paper applies theoretical approaches combining philosophical and anthropological understandings of space and place, which explicate the multi-vocality of landscapes that enmesh people, place and time. It is shown that spirit and place become embedded in a flow of power and negotiation of social relations that are rendered in the physicality of tangible elements and the embodiment of imagination, memories and symbolic attributions.

Angkor’s landscape, monuments and traditional cultural practices are important to contemporary communities and to the future of the Angkor World Heritage Site and the Cambodian nation. Paradoxically, as the effective combined efforts of the Royal Cambodian Government and the international community have seen the Angkor World Heritage Site removed from the List of World Heritage in Danger, awakening of the global community to the wonders of Angkor has given rise to new threats from an ever-increasing wave of visitors and associated development pressures. However, tourism development may also present an opportunity for the site, its people and the national economy. With the support of UNESCO and the Governments of Cambodia and Australia, work has recently commenced on the preparation of an ‘Angkor Heritage Management Framework’. The work will build on the considerable achievements of APSARA (the Authority for the Preservation and Safeguarding of Angkor and Surrounding Areas) in this area to date. The Framework recognises that managing heritage at Angkor is in large part about managing tourism – so as to assess risks, conserve tangible and intangible values, enhance visitor experiences and guide development in a way which respects and provides opportunities and benefits for the thousands of Khmer for whom Angkor is a sacred place, a special home and a dramatic symbol of nation.
