Risan, an ancient town on the Adriatic coast of Montenegro in the northern part of the Bay of Kotor, is known as "one of the oldest towns in Montenegro", with a history of more than 2,300 years. Surrounded by mountains and the blue sea, the town was once an important Illyrian settlement and later a thriving port for the Roman Empire, and still retains Roman mosaics, ancient walls and church ruins, including the "Muses of Risan" mosaic, one of the most prized Roman artifacts in the Balkans. Walking through Risan, with its stone-paved streets, colorful traditional houses and the distant sea view of the Bay of Kotor, you can feel the relaxed atmosphere of the Mediterranean Sea, but also travel through time to touch the weight of history, which makes it a must-visit place for exploring the culture and nature of Montenegro.
São Tomé and Príncipe is an island country in west-central Africa, consisting of the islands of São Tomé and Príncipe and the surrounding islets, with the capital, São Tomé, located in the northeastern part of São Tomé. Located on the Gulf of Guinea, about 200 kilometers from the African continent, the country was colonized by Portugal in the 15th century and became independent in 1975, with Portuguese as the official language and an economy based on agriculture (cocoa, palm oil) and tourism. It should be noted that "Java" is not a city or region of the country; Java is the main island of Indonesia, with cities such as Jakarta and Surabaya, and has nothing to do with São Tomé and Príncipe, possibly due to a confusion of names.
