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.

Located in the southeastern part of New Taipei City, Taiwan Province of China, Shiding is a mountainous township in the suburbs of Taipei, famous for its tea plantation scenery and natural landscape. The area is mountainous, with Wenshanbao tea plantation as the main industry, and the terraced tea plantations are rolling, where you can enjoy the tea blossoms in the spring and tea picking in the fall, combining ecological and humanistic beauty. Famous scenic spots include Yunxian Waterfall, Shiying Old Street (preserving traditional Minnan and Hakka architecture), and Aruo Waterfall, which are suitable for hiking, trekking, and rural experience. The local area is a blend of Hakka culture and Minnan customs, with traditional temples (such as the Jishun Temple in Shidding) intertwined with the aroma of tea, making it the backyard of Taipei's metropolitan area, offering a slow-living experience away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
