Triesen is a charming town in the southern part of the Principality of Liechtenstein, situated on the southern slopes of the Rhine Valley, close to the Swiss border.

The town's Church of St. Mary, built in the 15th century, is an important cultural landmark and attracts visitors with its stained glass windows and Gothic architecture. Steger is also a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, with surrounding trails such as the "Steger Ring" offering panoramic views of the Rhine, and in winter it is suitable for skiing and snowshoe hiking.

Located in the Omusati Region of northern Namibia, near the Angolan border, Ombalantu is a cultural town famous for its traditional wooden longhouses. The iconic Ombalantu Big Tree House, a 28-meter-high structure made of African acacia wood, dates back to the 19th century and is an important cultural heritage site for the local Ovambo people as it once served as a place of residence, council and ceremony. Today, the Big Tree House has been transformed into a small museum displaying traditional handicrafts, farming tools and folklore history, offering visitors a glimpse into the traditional way of life in northern Namibia. Surrounded by lush vegetation and nourished by seasonal rivers, the town's inhabitants still practice the ancient skills of millet cultivation and hand weaving. As an important point on Namibia's "cultural journey", Ombalantu is an ideal destination to experience the original African culture with its unique wooden house architecture and simple folklore.
