Jiading District is located in the northwestern part of Shanghai, China, and is one of the five major new cities in Shanghai. As a famous historical and cultural city in the south of the Yangtze River, Jiading was founded in the 10th year of Jiading of the Southern Song Dynasty (1218), with a history of more than 800 years, and is famous for "educating Jiading". It covers an area of 463.55 square kilometers and has a resident population of about 1.7 million.
Jiading District is a perfect blend of traditional and modern elements: the Confucius Temple and Zhouqiao Old Street preserve the architectural style of the Ming and Qing Dynasties, while the F1 Shanghai International Circuit and the Shanghai Automobile Museum demonstrate its status as an "international automobile city". It is the core base of China's automobile industry, with a concentration of vehicle and parts companies such as SAIC and Azera. Meanwhile, the Jiading Campus of Shanghai University of Science and Technology and Tongji University form a science and innovation cluster.
Railway line 11 and Hujia Expressway form a convenient transportation network, and it is about 30 minutes' drive from Hongqiao Transportation Hub. The area has ecological spaces such as Yuanxiang Lake and Jiabei Country Park, and has been continuously awarded as a national civilized urban area, forming a new modern city model of "science and technology + ecology + humanity".
Located in the northwestern part of the Portuguese region of Lisbon, about 30 kilometers from the capital, Mafra is a fascinating city that combines Baroque art with natural beauty.

The city is surrounded by the Sintra-Cascais Natural Park, where you can explore the breathtaking scenery and forests of the Atlantic coast on foot or by bike. In June, the "Festival of Mazan" is a vibrant celebration of the local culture with traditional music, food and folklore events, attracting visitors to experience the unique charm of this "living history museum".
