Deva is the capital of Hunedoara County in western Romania, located on the banks of the river Mureş, with a population of about 60,000 people. The city is famous for the hilltop Deva Castle, a 13th-century fortress perched on a volcanic cone that offers panoramic views and symbolizes the history of the region. The economy of Dva is based on industry and services, and it is also a transportation hub, connecting it to the Carpathian region.
Dva has a long history, first recorded in 1269, and was once a fortress of the Kingdom of Hungary. The city retains medieval buildings such as the castle and the Church of the Holy Cross. Culturally, Deva has museums, theaters, and is close to the ruins of the Dacian civilization, reflecting Romania's diverse heritage. The city is known for its mild continental climate with four distinct seasons, making it suitable for tourism.
Deva is a natural gateway for exploring the Carpathian Mountains, with the nearby Retezat National Park for hiking and eco-tourism. The city life is peaceful and has a good infrastructure, offering educational and medical resources. As an important regional center of Romania, Deva blends history and modernity, attracting visitors to experience its unique charm.
West Lake of Zhejiang, China, located in the west of Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, is one of the first batch of national key scenic spots in China and a World Heritage Site. Famous for its "three cloudy mountains and one side of the city", the lake is divided by natural and humanistic landscapes such as Lone Mountain, White Causeway and Su Causeway, forming the basic pattern of "one mountain, two towers, three islands, three causeways and five lakes". The ten scenic spots (such as the Spring Dawn of the Su Causeway and the Broken Bridge) carry a thousand years of poems, songs and folk legends, and Su Shi's famous line, "I want to compare the West Lake with the West Side", has made it a symbol of the aesthetics of Jiangnan. Nowadays, the West Lake is not only Hangzhou's ecological business card, but also a model of harmonious coexistence between traditional Chinese culture and nature, attracting tourists from all over the world to savor its unique flavor of "light makeup and thick smear".
