Duyun, located in the south-central part of Guizhou Province, is the capital of Qiannan Buyi and Miao Autonomous Prefecture and is known as the "Emerald Tea City". This city of mountains and water is famous for "Duyun Mao Jian", one of China's top ten famous teas, with delicate buds and long-lasting aroma, which is cultivated in high mountain tea gardens such as snail shells and Yunwu mountains surrounded by clouds and mist. The Jianjiang River, which passes through the city, with its rippling blue waves and green trees on both sides, and the Doupengshan National Nature Reserve together form an ecological picture scroll of "city in the mountains and water in the city". The stone streets in the old town retain the style of Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the ethnic minorities, such as Buyi and Miao, are rich in flavor, with embroidery, silver ornaments, long-table feasts and other special cultural experiences. Duyun has a pleasant climate, with an average annual temperature of about 15.8℃, no severe cold in winter and no scorching heat in summer, which makes it a summer resort as well as a charming city to savor the fragrance of tea and feel the ethnic customs.
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.
