Located in the northern part of Tianjin, Baodi District is in the core area of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei synergistic development, and has been the "thoroughfare to the east of Beijing" since ancient times, making it an important transportation hub connecting Beijing, Tianjin and Tangshan. With the Beijing-Tangshan Intercity and Jingbin High Speed Railway running through the area, the city can reach the Beijing Vice-Center in 30 minutes by car and the center of Tianjin and Tangshan in one hour, forming a "half-hour commuting circle". Economically, Baodi focuses on high-end equipment manufacturing, new energy, and biomedical industries, while relying on rich geothermal resources to create a "city of hot springs" and the Chaobai River Wetland Ecological Zone to inject ecological vitality into the city. As the northern growth pole of Tianjin, Baodi is positioning itself as the "Pearl of Beijing-Tianjin and Happy Baodi," accelerating the dissolution of non-capital functions and becoming an emerging hotspot for synergistic regional development.
Hum is located in the north-central Croatia Istria Peninsula, Guinness World Records certified "the world's smallest city". This miniature ancient city has a population of only about 20-30 people, but has a complete urban structure and a thousand years of history. Its iconic stone-walled hilltop castle, built in 1102 as a medieval military fortress, still retains its Romanesque architecture.
The 12th-century church of St. Jerome, with its frescoes in Gothic and Renaissance styles, remains in the old town of Khoum. The traditional annual "Election of the Mayor of Khum", in which the inhabitants of Khum vote for their leader on wooden boards, is a unique folklore that has been practiced for centuries. At the entrance to the city, the stone boulevard "Glagolitic Alley" inscribes the history of Croatian writing in the ancient Glagolitic alphabet.
Visitors can walk through the main street, which is only 100 meters long, and visit the hand-forged silver jewelry workshop in Hum and taste the local specialty, Biska. It is a 2-hour drive from the capital Zagreb, and it is recommended to combine this with a visit to the nearby town of Rovin. The best time to visit is from May to September, when you can take part in the medieval-themed summer festivals.
