This page groups holy cities by whether each one carries UNESCO World Heritage recognition. Wikipedia notes a holy city often contains "at least one headquarters complex (often containing a religious edifice, seminary, shrine, residence of the leading cleric of the religion ...)," features that frequently qualify such places for heritage recognition. Browsing by unesco-status lets a visitor tell a formally recognized heritage city from one that is not.
