Tainan is a famous historical and cultural city in Taiwan, which started the modern history of Taiwan since the Dutch founded the city of Jelanchu in 1624. It is home to the largest number of monuments in Taiwan, such as the Anping Ancient Fortress, the Chikan Tower, and the Confucius Temple, each of which carries a deep historical heritage. As the earliest "capital" of Taiwan, Tainan is a blend of Ming and Qing architectural styles, Minnan culture and aboriginal flavors, and is also famous for its old-fashioned snacks in the streets and alleys, from danzai noodles and oyster omelettes to coffin boards and mung bean pastries, all of which have attracted countless diners to come here. Strolling through Tainan is like traveling through time and space, experiencing the slow-living charm of the years.
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.
