Libreville is the capital and largest city of the Gabonese Republic, located on the Atlantic coast in the west of the country, with a population of about 700,000 people. As the political, economic and cultural center of Gabon, Libreville has French as its official language, an active port and diversified trade activities. The city's name means "free city" and derives from the history of the emancipation of slaves in the 19th century.
Libreville has a tropical rainforest climate, warm and humid all year round, with an average temperature of around 26°C. The economy is dominated by oil, timber and mining, with a growing tourism industry that attracts visitors to its beautiful beaches, national parks and colonial architecture. The University of Omar Bongo and the National Museum of Gabon are important cultural landmarks.
In terms of transportation, Libreville International Airport connects Africa with Europe and the city's infrastructure is constantly being improved. The city's blend of modern urbanism and natural beauty makes it an ideal starting point for exploring Gabon's biodiversity and culture.
Schellenberg is a historic municipality in the north of Liechtenstein and one of the smallest administrative regions in the country, situated on the gentle slopes of the Rhine Valley, close to the Swiss border. Although small, the town carries the story of Liechtenstein's origins - the ruins of the "Upper Liechtenstein" castle, which is a testament to the Liechtenstein family's acquisition of territories in the 13th century, and the remains of its medieval stone walls still attract history buffs to explore the town. The town of Schellenberg is characterized by its tranquil atmosphere. Schellenberg is known for its idyllic, rural atmosphere, where visitors can stroll along winding paths with views of the Alps and the Rhine, or explore the traditional wooden houses and family-owned breweries for a taste of Liechtenstein's slower pace of life. As an important node of Liechtenstein's "Culture Trail", traditional events such as the Medieval Market are held every year, allowing visitors to experience the richness of this miniature country in a relaxed atmosphere.
