Located in the northeastern part of Kaohsiung City, Taiwan Province of China, Liugui is a famous mountainous township situated at the junction of the Yushan Mountain Range and the Central Mountain Range, and is known for its rich natural landscape and hot spring resources. The Laonong River runs through the area, giving rise to magnificent canyons, waterfalls and virgin forests such as the Eighteen Lohan Mountains and the Baolai Hot Spring area, making it a popular destination for eco-tourism and outdoor activities.
The area is rich in fruits such as mango and lotus fog, and has a well-developed agricultural economy, while retaining a strong Hakka culture and aboriginal traditions. Liugui has promoted tourism in recent years, combining leisure activities such as hot springs, hiking and rafting to attract many tourists to experience Taiwan's natural beauty.
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.
