  • The government designates (as opposed to registers: see Registered Monuments below) "significant" items of this kind as Cultural Properties and classifies them in one of three categories: * Historic Sites(史跡shiseki) * Places of Scenic Beauty(名勝meishō), * Natural Monuments(天然記念物tennen kinenbutsu). Items of particularly high significance may receive a higher classification as: * Special Historic Sites(特別史跡tokubetsu shiseki) * Special Places of Scenic Beauty(特別名勝tokubetsu meishō) * Special Natural Monuments(特別天然記念物tokubetsu tennen kinenbutsu) respectively. As of April 2009, there are 980 Natural Monuments, 1640 Historic Sites, 351 Places of Scenic Beauty, 75 Special Natural Monuments, 61 Special Historic Sites and 35 Special Places of Scenic Beauty.. Since a single item can fall under more than one of these categories, the total number of sites is less than the sum of designations. The Hamarikyu Gardens in Tokyo for instance are at the same time a "Special Place of Scenic Beauty" and a "Special Historic Site". Alterations to the existing state of a site or activities affecting its preservation require permission from the Commissioner for Cultural Affairs. Financial support for purchasing and conserving designated land and for the utilization of the site is available through local governments.
