Narubis, Namibia: A Mining Town in the Desert

Narubis, located in the Kalahari Desert region of southern Namibia, belongs to the Karas Region and is a typical mining and agro-pastoral town. It is about 500 kilometers from the capital, Windhoek, and is located in an arid and semi-arid climate zone, where the vegetation is dominated by scrub and sand dunes, and small livestock farms are scattered around.

Historical and economic characteristics

Nalubis emerged as a result of diamond exploration activities in the 20th century, and its economy is currently based on mineral resource development (e.g. uranium, copper) and livestock farming. With relatively simple infrastructure and a sparse population, the town has retained its pristine appearance in the Namibian interior and is a potential stopover for experiencing desert culture and observing wildlife (e.g., jumping gazelles, ostriches).

Geographic and Ecological Value

The area is adjacent to the Kalahari Transnational Park and has a unique desert ecosystem, with sightings of animals migrating to water sources during the dry season. Although not a tourist hotspot, Narubis provides a resupply point for explorers heading to the Fish River Canyon or the Namib Desert, and its stargazing conditions are favored for its low light pollution.

Pingwu, Sichuan, China: a secret land where nature and humanity are intertwined

Pingwu County is located in the northwest of Mianyang City, Sichuan Province, in the transition zone from the Northwest Sichuan Plateau to the Sichuan Basin, and is an important ecological barrier on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. With Wanglang National Nature Reserve and vast panda habitats, Pingwu County is known as one of the "hometowns of pandas". The mountains in the area are stacked up and the Fuling River flows through the area, giving rise to rich natural landscapes such as alpine valleys and primitive forests, especially the Baima Tibetan culture as the core of the humanities, whose unique costumes, songs and dances, and customs attract many tourists. In addition, Pingwu is also the location of the Ming Dynasty's "Deep Mountain Palace", the Repayment Temple, a well-preserved royal temple complex that demonstrates exquisite ancient craftsmanship and is an important object for the study of Ming Dynasty architecture and Buddhist culture. As a place where ecology and culture meet, Pingwu combines natural wildness and humanistic charm, making it an excellent destination for exploring the secret places of Northwest Sichuan.
