Longhui County, belonging to Shaoyang City of Hunan Province, is located in the hinterland of Xuefeng Mountain in the southwestern part of Hunan Province, which is known as "six degrees of mountain water and six degrees of Yao", and it is a unique area where Xuefeng culture and Yao flavor are blended. Here, the mountains are stacked with verdant mountains and streams, and the Tiger Mountain Scenic Spot of Dahuayao is famous for its ancient trees, deep canyons and ancient Yao villages, preserving the only "Hua Yao" culture in the country, and the non-heritage skills such as flower picking and woo-woo songs are unique and charming.
Longhui is also the "Hometown of Honeysuckle in China", with a planting history of more than 300 years, production accounting for one-third of the country, and its "Longhui Honeysuckle" has been awarded the National Geographical Indication Product. The former residence of Wei Yuan, a thinker in the Qing Dynasty, is located here, adding a heavy humanistic heritage to the land. In recent years, Longhui has relied on ecological and cultural resources to create a tourist destination that integrates recreation, folklore, and study, attracting attention from people looking for a secret place in Hunan.
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.
