Schaan is the largest municipality in the Principality of Liechtenstein by area and is located in the Rhine Valley in the north of the country, on the border with Switzerland. As the industrial and economic center of Liechtenstein, Schaan is known for its highly developed production industry and is home to the headquarters of a number of internationally renowned medical device and high-tech companies.
Schaan has historically undergone a merger of municipalities in the 1960s and today has a population of about 6,000, or a quarter of the country's total population. The town retains its historic buildings, such as the St. Lawrence Church, while incorporating modern urban planning to create a unique, semi-industrial, semi-residential landscape.
Schaan has the only train station in Liechtenstein and is connected to Switzerland and Austria by the Austrian Federal Railroad. The city is home to multinational companies such as Hilti and Hilti, and has one of the highest GDPs per capita in the world, making it known as the "Invisible Champion of the Alps".
Tourists can visit the branch of the Liechtenstein National Museum and experience the bicycle route around the Rhine. Although not as well known as the capital Vaduz, Schaan is an ideal gateway for exploring this pocket-sized country with its clean streets, amenities and natural beauty next to the Alps.
Fumin County, belonging to Kunming City, Yunnan Province, is located in the north of central Yunnan, only 30 kilometers away from downtown Kunming, and is Kunming's "backyard" and an important ecological barrier. The mild climate and four seasons of spring have given rise to the reputation of "the town of prunes". Fumin's prunes are famous for their large size, sweet flavor and juiciness, and the annual prune festival in June and July attracts many tourists. In addition to prunes, grapes, cherries and other specialty fruits are also famous in central Yunnan. The Mantis River meanders through its territory, and it has natural and humanistic landscapes such as Luofu Mountain and Beigu Shuixiang, which make it an ideal destination for leisure vacation and ecological picking. Relying on the advantages of Kunming's suburbs, Fumin is actively developing modern agriculture and rural tourism to create an ecologically vibrant city that is pleasant to live and work in.
