Beigang, Taiwan, China: Home of Mazu Culture and Traditional Snacks

Beigang, located in the northwest of Chiayi County, Taiwan Province of China, with the Taiwan Strait to its west, is an important historical and cultural town and religious shrine in Taiwan. Named after the Beigang River, Beigang was once one of the four major commercial ports in Taiwan during the Qing Dynasty, and is now known as the birthplace of A-Ma culture. The Chaotian Palace in the town was built in the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty and enshrines the statue of A-Ma. Every year during the Lunar New Year and A-Ma's birthday, it attracts millions of pilgrims, making it one of the most influential A-Ma temples in Taiwan. Beigang not only has a strong religious atmosphere, but is also known for its traditional snacks, such as beef tongue cake, noodle thread paste, sweet kuey teow and other local delicacies, which allow visitors to savor Taiwan's ancient taste in a culturally inspired way. Conveniently accessible by high-speed rail to Chiayi Station and then transferring to passenger transportation, Beigang is a must-visit place to experience Taiwan's folklore.

Overview of Sao Tome and Principe (note on "Java")

São Tomé and Príncipe is an island country in west-central Africa, consisting of the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe and the surrounding islets, with the capital, São Tomé, located in the northeastern part of São Tomé. Located on the Gulf of Guinea, about 200 kilometers from the African continent, the country was colonized by Portugal in the 15th century and became independent in 1975, with Portuguese as the official language and an economy based on agriculture (cocoa, palm oil) and tourism. It should be noted that "Java" is not a city or region of the country; Java is the main island of Indonesia, with cities such as Jakarta and Surabaya, and has nothing to do with São Tomé and Príncipe, possibly due to a confusion of names.
