Located in Bayin'guoleng Mongol Autonomous Prefecture of Xinjiang, Yuli County is situated at the northeastern edge of the Tarim Basin and the lower reaches of the Tarim River, relying on the Taklamakan Desert in the south and the Kuruk Mountains in the north, and is the key point of the northern route of the ancient Silk Road. It is famous for its unique desert-oasis landscape, and has the largest area of primitive poplar forests in the world, the Tarim Poplar Forest, which is full of golden leaves in the fall, and is known as the hometown of "Desert Hero Tree". Yuli is also China's "hometown of long-staple cotton", with vast fields of high-quality cotton, giving rise to "gold in cotton". At the same time, this is the important birthplace of the Lobo culture, the ancient fishing and hunting culture of the Lobo people, the unique "grilled fish", "Kumaiqi" cuisine, as well as the mysterious ruins of Lobo, giving it a deep historical heritage. In recent years, relying on ecological and human resources, Yuli has developed desert tourism and folklore experience, and has become a unique and attractive tourist destination in the southern border of Xinjiang.
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.
