Located in the south of Shandong Province, Luling County is subordinate to Linyi City and is situated at the junction of Lu and Suzhou Provinces. It is a cultural city with a long history and is known as "Ancient County of a Thousand Years" and "Wine Capital of Huaxia". During the Spring and Autumn Period, Lanling County was set up, which is the hometown of Xunzi, and the Confucian culture has been deeply inherited here, and "Lanling Wine and Tulip" is even more famous in the world because of Li Bai's poem. Modern Lanling is an important vegetable production base in China, and "Cangshan Garlic" (now called Lanling Garlic) is famous both at home and abroad. The integration of agriculture and culture and tourism has led to the development of the Pressure Oil Gully Scenic Spot, Lanling National Agricultural Park and other famous attractions, which not only continue the historical cultural lineage, but also revitalize the vitality of the new era.
Narubis, located in the Kalahari Desert region of southern Namibia, belongs to the Karas Region and is a typical mining and agro-pastoral town. It is about 500 kilometers from the capital, Windhoek, and is located in an arid and semi-arid climate zone, where the vegetation is dominated by scrub and sand dunes, and small livestock farms are scattered around.
Nalubis emerged as a result of diamond exploration activities in the 20th century, and its economy is currently based on mineral resource development (e.g. uranium, copper) and livestock farming. With relatively simple infrastructure and a sparse population, the town has retained its pristine appearance in the Namibian interior and is a potential stopover for experiencing desert culture and observing wildlife (e.g., jumping gazelles, ostriches).
The area is adjacent to the Kalahari Transnational Park and has a unique desert ecosystem, with sightings of animals migrating to water sources during the dry season. Although not a tourist hotspot, Narubis provides a resupply point for explorers heading to the Fish River Canyon or the Namib Desert, and its stargazing conditions are favored for its low light pollution.
