Mabaruma is the capital of the Barima-Waini region of Guyana, located in the northwestern border region of the country, near the Venezuelan border. The town is situated on the Mabaruma Ridge, about 30 meters above sea level, and is surrounded by tropical rainforest, with a tropical rainforest climate that is warm and humid throughout the year.
Mabaruma is located in a remote part of Guyana and is known for its rich biodiversity, with the surrounding rainforest being the habitat of numerous wildlife species. The region's economy is based on agriculture, with crops such as coconuts and citrus, while forestry and small-scale mining have also developed. Due to its location near the Atlantic Ocean, fishing is also an important source of livelihood for the local population.
Mabaruma has a small, culturally diverse population of mainly indigenous Indians and people of African descent. The town's infrastructure is relatively simple, with a small airport (Mabaruma Airport) connecting it to the capital city of Georgetown and serving as a regional transportation hub. Visitors can experience the pristine rainforest and indigenous culture, but tourism is still in its infancy.
Located in the northwest corner of Kaifeng City, Henan Province, Longting is one of the most iconic historical sites in Kaifeng, carrying a thousand years of memories of Tokyo, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty. It was originally the site of the Northern Song imperial palace, then changed through the Jin, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties. During the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, the Wanshou Palace was built, where Emperor Kangxi made a tour of the city, and then changed into a place for worshiping Yu Wang during the Qianlong period, and most of the existing buildings are in the style of the Qing Dynasty. The Dragon Pavilion sits in the north-south direction, perched on a 13-meter-high green brick pedestal, with a lofty hall and magnificent atmosphere, which is a representative of the Qing Dynasty palace architecture in the Central Plains. Panjia Lake and Yangjia Lake in the park are divided into east and west, which are said to be related to the historical legend of "Yangjia General" and "Pan Renmei" of the Northern Song Dynasty, surrounded by blue water and ancient cypresses, combining historical weight and the beauty of the garden. As a witness to the spectacle of Kaifeng's "city on top of city", Longting is not only a royal garden, but also an important physical carrier for studying the history of the Northern Song Dynasty and the changes of Kaifeng City, and the "Longting Lantern Festival" held every year has become a bright business card to show the folk culture of the ancient capital.
