Dushanzi is a municipal district under the jurisdiction of Karamay City in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China. It is located at the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountain and the southwestern edge of the Junggar Basin, and is an important petrochemical base in Xinjiang. Named after the independent mountain "Dushan" in its territory, Dushanzi has a history of more than 100 years of petroleum exploitation and is regarded as the cradle of China's petroleum industry.
Dushanzi is located on the main transportation route of Northern Xinjiang, about 250 kilometers away from Urumqi. The regional economy is dominated by the petrochemical industry, with modern large-scale integrated refining and chemical facilities, making Dushanzi an important energy processing center in western China. The Dushanzi Grand Canyon has become a well-known tourist destination as a unique geological landscape, displaying spectacular canyon geomorphology and stratigraphic profiles.
As a multi-ethnic settlement area, Dushanzi integrates the cultures of Han Chinese, Kazakhs, Uyghurs and other ethnic groups. The city has a high green coverage, and the special ecological environment of snow-capped mountains intertwined with the Gobi can be seen in the surrounding area. The cool climate every summer makes it a summer resort, while in winter you can experience the unique snow and ice landscape of the northern border.
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.
