Located in the northeastern part of China's Zhejiang Province, Shaoxing is one of the important cities in the Yangtze River Delta, known for its long history, water town culture and celebrities. As a National Historic and Cultural City, Shaoxing has a history of more than 2,500 years as a city, and is the capital of the ancient state of Yue and the hometown of famous people such as Lu Xun and Zhou Enlai.
The characteristics of the city include the typical Jiangnan water town style, rivers and ancient bridges, known as the "Venice of the East". Famous attractions include the former residence of Lu Xun, the Shen Garden, the Orchid Pavilion and the Jianhu Lake, while yellow wine, fennel beans and other specialties are renowned nationwide. The economy is based on textile, yellow wine, electronic information and other industries, taking into account the protection of traditional culture and modern development.
Conveniently located about 50 kilometers from Hangzhou Xiaoshan International Airport, the city is directly connected by high-speed rail to Shanghai, Hangzhou and other major cities, making it an ideal destination for humanistic tourism and business trips.
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.
