Arba Minch, the capital of the Southern Region of Ethiopia, is located in the southern part of the Rift Valley and is known as the "City of the South". This small city is surrounded by mountains and water, bordered by Lake Abaya in the north and Lake Chamo in the south, forming a unique "gateway to the lakes" between the two lakes, which is an important window for viewing African wildlife. The surrounding Omo National Park is known for its pristine tribal culture and rich biodiversity, attracting tourists from all over the world. As the economic center of the region, Arba Mench is based on agriculture and fisheries, but in recent years, tourism has grown rapidly, making it a must-visit destination for exploring the nature and people of southwestern Ethiopia.
Located in the southwestern part of Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Gansu Province, China, Maqu County is situated at the eastern end of the Tibetan Plateau, with an average elevation of over 3,500 meters above sea level, and is a unique plateau wetland county surrounded by the first bend of the Yellow River. Its name "Maqu" means "Yellow River" in Tibetan, and it is famous for the first bend of the Yellow River. The area is characterized by animal husbandry, strong Tibetan culture and rich natural resources and ecological landscapes, such as the Awancang Wetland and the Ximeiduo Hetang Flower Sea. With its alpine and humid climate, Maqu is an important water conservation area and biodiversity reserve. In recent years, eco-tourism and ethnic cultural experiences have gradually become local specialties.
