What is place? PLACE The world is made up of many different places, which have different purposes and often mean different things to people!

What are the ‘characteristics of place’? These characteristics of places can be grouped into either human or natural characteristics. ‘Characteristics’ can be lots of things. They can be something that you can see. For example, you can see a mountain or a building in a place. They can be something that you can touch. For example, you can touch a piece of clothing or something wooden. … or something that you can feel such as the heat on a hot day. … or something that you experience such as pride in your community.
