Covering Taipei, New Taipei City, Keelung City and Taoyuan City, the Northern District of Taiwan is the political, economic and cultural center of Taiwan. Taipei, as the core city, has the iconic Taipei 101, the National Palace Museum and the Ximending shopping district, combining modern urban vitality with traditional humanistic heritage; the old streets of Danshui and the mountain town of Jiufen in New Taipei City show the nostalgic flavor of Northern Taiwan; Taoyuan City is famous for its international airport and semiconductor industry, and is an important hub for international connections; Keelung City is surrounded by the mountains and the sea, and has the Bisha Fishing Harbor and the Miaokou Night Market, which show the charm of a port city. Keelung, on the other hand, is surrounded by mountains and the sea. With a concentration of global technology companies, top universities and diverse cultures, as well as the natural ecology of Yangmingshan National Park and the modern life connected by the MRT network, this is the quintessential area for experiencing Taiwan's innovation and tradition.
Same, the capital of Timor-Leste's Ainaro District, is located about 50 kilometers south of the capital, Dili, in the mountainous interior and is an important agricultural and transportation hub for the country. It is known for its coffee farming, surrounded by terraced fields that produce Timor-Leste's premium Arabica coffee beans.

The surrounding area is rich in natural beauty and close to Mount Ramelau, Timor-Leste's highest peak, making it a stopover for hiking enthusiasts. A blend of traditional Timacu culture and modern townscape, Samu offers a unique look at the interior of Timor-Leste.
