Wangqing County is located in the northeast of Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture in Jilin Province, at the foot of Changbai Mountain and bordering with Russia, making it an important border county in Northeast Asia. The forest coverage here is as high as 85%, with natural landscapes such as Lanjia Grand Canyon and Mantianxing National Forest Park, which are known as "Natural Oxygen Bar". As an area inhabited by the Korean people, Wangqing retains strong ethnic cultural characteristics, with colorful folk activities such as the Nongle Dance and the long drum dance, and unique Korean cuisine such as cold noodles and kimchi. The economy is dominated by forestry and specialty agriculture, producing high-quality agricultural products such as black fungus and apples and pears, and at the same time, relying on ecological resources to develop green tourism, making it an ideal destination for experiencing the northeastern border scenery and ethnic culture.
Alakht is a small city in Parwan Province, Afghanistan, located northwest of the capital city of Kabul in the plains of the foothills of the Hindu Kush Mountains, surrounded by a predominantly agricultural landscape. The local economy is based on plantation, with residents growing crops such as wheat and corn, and a certain amount of livestock. As the sub-administrative center of Parwan province, Alakht has basic educational and healthcare facilities, but the overall level of development is relatively limited. Historically, the region has been affected by the surrounding political situation at different times due to its geographical proximity to strategic corridors, and in recent years it is gradually restoring social stability and working to improve livelihood infrastructure.
