What specific facts distinguish one Color the World landmark worksheet from another?

Every sheet's concept line, beyond the shared opening that a landmark is a place people travel a long way to see, carries a genuinely distinct detail: Chichen Itza was built by the Maya more than a thousand years ago, Machu Picchu was built high in the Andes and left empty for centuries, and the Leaning Tower of Pisa started tilting before its builders had even finished it, so no two worksheets teach the same fact despite sharing a format.

Why do these worksheets emphasize 'people travel a long way to see it' as the definition of a landmark?

That definition, printed on nearly every sheet in the set, gives second graders a consistent, testable way to decide whether a place counts as a landmark: not just that it's famous, but that people are willing to travel specifically to see it. Repeating that definition across twelve different countries and continents shows students the same underlying idea holds everywhere, not just for one country's famous sites.
