Miyi County is located in Panzhihua City, Sichuan Province, China, at the junction of the southeastern edge of the Tibetan Plateau and the northwestern part of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, and is famous as the "City of Sunshine". The county has a predominantly subtropical hot and dry river valley climate, with an average annual temperature of about 20 degrees Celsius, plenty of sunshine, and abundant production of mango, loquat and other tropical fruits, and rich agricultural resources. Miyi also boasts a unique Lisu culture and natural landscapes, such as Longtan Cave, Zhuanxu Dragon Cave and other karst landscapes, as well as idyllic scenery on the banks of the Anning River, making it a popular destination for ecotourism and recreational vacations in southwest Sichuan. In recent years, Miyi has been actively developing a green economy and promoting rural revitalization, becoming an important node area for southward opening of Sichuan.
Murfreesboro, located in the northeastern part of Van Buren County, Arkansas, USA, is the county seat of the county with a population of about 1,700 (2020 data) and is a quiet historic town. Founded in the early 19th century and named after Thomas Murfree, an early colonist, the town retains its 19th-century architecture and rural flavor. Its economy is based on agriculture (poultry farming, soybean farming) and tourism, and its proximity to the Buffalo National River draws visitors to experience outdoor activities such as hiking and fishing. The Murfreesboro Historic District and the old county courthouse have seen the town grow, and the neighboring Crater of Diamonds State Park, although part of Howard County, is often an extension of the destination, adding to the town's unique charm.
