Located in the northeastern part of Guangdong Province, China, Tai Po County is a part of Meizhou City and is situated at the junction of Fujian and Guangdong Provinces, and is famous as the "Hometown of Overseas Chinese", "Hometown of Culture" and "Hometown of Ceramics". The county has a total area of about 2,467 square kilometers, mainly mountainous and hilly, with the Han River running through the whole territory, rich in natural resources and excellent ecological environment.
Tai Po has a long history and deep cultural heritage, with national cultural relics protection units such as Tai'an Building and Calyx Building, and the unique characteristics of the Hakka dragon house architecture. Hakka culture is the core of the area, and traditional folklore such as Guangdong Han music and Puzai fire dragons have been preserved. The ceramics industry has emerged since the Song Dynasty, and Tai Po blue and white porcelain is renowned both at home and abroad.
Tai Po is supported by agriculture, ceramic industry and tourism, and produces agricultural products such as honeydew and tea. Attractions such as the Sanheba Battle Memorial Park, Fengxi Forest Park and Baihou Ancient Town attract many tourists, making it an ideal destination for experiencing Hakka culture and eco-tourism.
Bor, the capital of South Sudan's Central Equatoria State, is located in the south-central part of the country along the White Nile River and is an important hub of South Sudan's history and culture. As a traditional Dinka settlement, Bor played a key role in Sudan's Second War of Independence and the founding of the South Sudanese state, and is known as the "Cradle of the South Sudanese Revolution". The city is surrounded by fertile agricultural land, with animal husbandry and crop farming (e.g. maize, sorghum) as the mainstay of the economy, and the White Nile River facilitating local fishing and trade. Despite a long history of conflict, Bor remains an important administrative and commercial center for South Sudan, and in recent years has shown resilience as it has gradually rehabilitated its infrastructure and attracted populations from surrounding areas.
