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.
Located in the southeastern part of the Tuamotu Archipelago in French Polynesia, Tenerunga Atoll is a remote coral atoll far from the mainland, known for its pristine natural landscape and unique ecology. The atoll consists of several small islands surrounding a crystal clear lagoon, and is a paradise for diving and snorkeling enthusiasts with its fine white sand beaches, colorful coral reefs and abundant marine life. With a very small resident population, it retains a tranquil, unexploited atmosphere where visitors can experience pristine island life, see marine life such as dolphins and devil fish, or explore the deep-water lagoon in the center of the atoll. As the "hidden jewel" of French Polynesia, Teneranga's pristine natural beauty makes it the ultimate destination for the ultimate island experience.
