Do my bookmarks get deleted if I clear browsing history on Google Chrome?

I'm using Google Chrome and it's running reaaaaaally slow recently so I was going to clear all my browsing data which includes, history, cache, download history, cookies, and plugin data and I just wanted to know whether this would delete my bookmarks because I remember I did something like this before and it deleted it I think so I just want to make sure.

Thanks

    Book Marks or Favourites are stored in your Favourites Folder

    which is one of the OS folders stored on your hard drive.

    They are not stored in ANY browser! The same as your History,

    Cache, Cookies, Passwords and User Names etc.

    None of them are stored in a browser either, they're stored in

    their own individual folders.

    Clear Bookmarks Chrome

    No they don't. I believe they stay even if you reinstall google chrome(if you choose to keep your preferences), the only way to get rid of them is to manually delete(just right click on it and click delete), delete the default or modify certain things in the appdata google/chrome folder, Or reinstalling your OS. Also keep in mind when you choose to clear your history it'll prompt you with several options including what you want deleted and how far back.

    No,It doesn't deletes your Bookmarks.If you are so much concerned about your Bookmarks,Then enable Sync option in Chrome with Google.This option helps to recover lost or erased bookmarks when deleted mistakenly.
