UNESCO Adds Swiss Yodeling to Cultural Heritage List

UNESCO, a group that protects important cultural things, added Swiss yodeling to its special list.

This list includes important traditions from around the world, like Italian cooking and Ghanaian music.

Yodeling is a type of singing that comes from the Swiss Alps.

It can be done alone or in groups, sometimes with instruments like the accordion.

People often wear traditional clothes when they yodel.

Switzerland's government helped get yodeling on the list.

There are about 12,000 yodelers in Switzerland, and they perform at concerts, parties, and competitions.

This is not the same as the list of important places like the Pyramids of Giza.
