Buford is located in Laramie County, Wyoming, USA, off Interstate 80, about 40 kilometers south of the state capital, Cheyenne. The town is famous for having the smallest resident population in the United States - in 2010, there was only one person left (and then it became uninhabited for a time), and was certified by the Guinness Book of World Records as the "least populated incorporated town in the United States". Dating back to the 1860s, the town prospered as a railroad supply depot and then declined as transportation routes changed. Today, the town's landmarks include a grocery store, gas station, and a historic beacon that was sold to a Vietnamese businessman for $900,000 in 2013, making it a "lonely landmark" for tourists. Despite having zero permanent residents, the town attracts thousands of visitors each year to experience the wilderness and serenity of the vast state of Wyoming.
Maastricht is the capital of Limburg province in the southern part of the Netherlands, located at the border of the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany, and is known as the "heart of Europe". With a history of more than 2,000 years, this ancient city is one of the oldest cities in the Netherlands, having been built as a fortress in Roman times. The Maas River meanders through the city, with medieval buildings, cobblestone streets and bridges on both sides, and the Old Town is rich in history, with sights such as St. John's Church and Freedom Square. As the home of Maastricht University, the city is also full of youthful energy and attracts many international students every year. The city's unique location makes it a culturally diverse place, with a mix of Dutch, Flemish and German flavors, and a wealth of food, art and festivals, making it an ideal destination for experiencing a blend of Dutch tradition and European charm.
