Lantian is part of Xi'an City, located at the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains and on the banks of the Ba River, and is an important part of the Xi'an metropolitan area. As one of the birthplaces of the Chinese nation, Lantian is home to the Lantian Ape Man Site, which is about 1.15 million years old, confirming the activities of ancient mankind, and is known as the "Morning Sun of Chinese Civilization". Lantian is not only the home of Lantian Jade, but also famous for the poem "Jade grows smoky in the warmth of the Lantian sun", and the culture of jade carving has lasted for thousands of years. In terms of natural scenery, the landscape of Rim River once made Wang Wei write the famous line "After the new rain on the empty mountain", and Tangyu Hot Spring is a famous health resort in Northwest China. Nowadays, Lantian, relying on the radiation of Xi'an National Center City, is developing through the integration of "history and culture + eco-tourism + special agriculture", and has become an ecological barrier in the south of Xi'an with both ancient charm and vitality.
Ruby is a small incorporated town in Tangipahoa Parish, Louisiana, United States, located about 60 miles northeast of the state capital of Baton Rouge and adjacent to the Mississippi border, and characterized by a quiet rural atmosphere and a deep community culture. Sparsely populated, with fewer than 500 people according to the most recent census, the town dates back to the late 1800s and, with its early rise to an agricultural economy (e.g., cotton and soybean farming), still retains the rustic look of a traditional Southern town. The town's landmarks include a century-old community church and several Victorian-style homes, and the annual fall "Ruby Family Day," which blends elements of local Cajun and Creole culture, has become a shared memory for the surrounding residents. Despite its small size, Ruby epitomizes the serenity of the American countryside with its simple folk and distinctive Louisiana southern flavor.
