Ati is an important town in central Chad, located about 600 kilometers east of the capital, N'Djamena, and is the capital of the Hadjer-Lamis region. Situated in the Sahelian zone on the southern edge of the Sahara Desert, along the seasonal Batha River and surrounded by semi-arid grasslands, the town is the agricultural and pastoral hub of central Chad. The climate in Ati is hot and dry, with an average annual temperature of 28°C. It is divided into a hot dry season (March-October) and a short rainy season (July-September). The local economy is based on nomadic pastoralism and rough agriculture, with residents mostly engaged in camel and goat farming and growing drought-tolerant crops such as millet and sorghum. As a regional transportation hub, Ati connects Chad's north-south highway arteries and is a traditional trading center for local Tubu and Arab traders, with a unique desert culture and bazaar atmosphere.
Located in Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province, China, Zheduo County is situated in the hinterland of the Tibetan Plateau, with an average elevation of over 4,200 meters above sea level, and is dominated by alpine grasslands and mountainous terrain. It is the birthplace of the Lancang River (the upper reaches of the Mekong River) and is known as the "First County of the Lancang River Source". The ecological environment is pure and rich in wildlife resources, such as snow leopards, Tibetan antelopes and cordyceps.
Zangdo County is dominated by Tibetan culture, and most of its residents are engaged in animal husbandry, preserving the traditional nomadic lifestyle and Tibetan Buddhist customs. The local economy relies on animal husbandry and cordyceps collection, and in recent years eco-tourism has gradually developed, attracting adventure and nature lovers. Representing a unique natural and humanistic landscape in China's high-altitude regions, Maiduo is an important area for the study of biodiversity and Tibetan culture.
