Chongqing is the only municipality directly under the central and western China, located in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and is an important hub city of the Yangtze River Economic Belt. As a national center city, Chongqing is known for its mountain town character, hotpot cuisine and three-dimensional transportation, and with a population of over 30 million, it is one of the largest cities in the world.
City landmarks include the Hongyadong Cluster of Hanging Towers, the Yangtze River Ropeway and the Jiefangbei shopping district. As the companion capital during the war, Chongqing retains a large number of historical sites, such as the Red Rock Revolutionary Memorial. Economically, Chongqing is an important automobile manufacturing and electronic information industry base in China, and has national development and opening platforms such as the Liangjiang New Area.
With an average elevation of 400 meters above sea level, Chongqing has a subtropical monsoon climate and is known as the "Fog City" because of its foggy spring and summer. 2023 GDP will reach 3.01 trillion yuan, ranking fourth in the country. The international airport is Chongqing Jiangbei International Airport (code CKG), and the city's rail transportation has opened 11 lines.
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.
