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.
Located in the south of Wuzhou City, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, China, Longwei is a municipal district under Wuzhou City, which is situated at the confluence of Xunjiang River and Guijiang River, with an advantageous geographical position. As an important river port and transportation hub in Guangxi, Longwei has a long history and deep cultural heritage, with rich natural resources and humanistic landscapes.
Longxu's economy is based on agriculture, industry and logistics, producing agricultural products such as rice and fruits, and developing shipping and trade based on the advantages of the port. The transportation is convenient, with a well-developed network of highways, railroads and waterways connecting the major cities of Guangxi and the Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao Greater Bay Area.
Long Wei has preserved many traditional cultures and monuments, such as the Dragon Mother Temple and the ancient wharf, which attract tourists to explore its unique folklore and natural scenery. The local area is characterized by the Zhuang culture, with a rich variety of festivals and celebrations and cuisines (such as Wuzhou turtle jelly).
