Overview of Sao Tome and Principe (note on "Java")

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.

Natural and Geographic Features

Mardo has a group of plateau freshwater lakes, such as Zaling Lake and Eling Lake, as well as magnificent landforms, such as the Ba Yan Ka La Mountains. The typical highland cold climate makes the area long and cold in winter and short and cool in summer. The unique biodiversity makes it a habitat for rare species such as Tibetan antelope and wild yak.

The local area is dominated by Tibetan culture, preserving the traditional nomadic life and religious customs. The main attractions include the Yellow River Source Monument, the Ox-Head Monument and natural wonders such as the Sea of Starry Nights, which are suitable for eco-tourism, photographic adventure and plateau cultural experience activities.
