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.
Bao Ta District is part of the city of Yan'an, Shaanxi Province, China, and is the seat of the Yan'an Municipal Government and the core administrative district, with a total area of 3,556 square kilometers and a population of about 500,000 people. Located in the hilly and gully area of the Loess Plateau in northern Shaanxi Province, it has a temperate continental monsoon climate with four distinct seasons.
Bao Ta District, named after the ancient building "Bao Ta Shan" in the Tang Dynasty, is one of the modern revolutionary shrines in China, with more than 140 red memorial sites, including the Yan'an Revolutionary Memorial Hall and the Yangjialing Revolutionary Site. The nine-story pagoda on Baota Mountain is the symbol of the city, and you can climb the pagoda to have a panoramic view of Yan'an.
Energy, agriculture and tourism are the leading industries, producing apples, millet and red dates. In recent years, the city has been vigorously developing red tourism, receiving more than ten million tourists annually. Convenient transportation, Baosi Railway, Qinglan Expressway runs through the whole territory, only 8 kilometers away from Yan'an Nanniwan Airport.
