Ziliujing District, located in the south of Sichuan Province, is a municipal district of Zigong City, named after the ancient salt wells that flowed from the city, and is known as the core area of the "Millennium Salt Capital". As the birthplace of Zigong's salt industry, Ziliujing District retains the former site of salt merchants in the Qing Dynasty, and the site of the Tianche (derrick) and other industrial cultural heritages, which have witnessed the glorious history of well salt mining in the BaShu region. The Zigong Dinosaur Museum in the district is one of the world's three major dinosaur site museums, treasuring a large number of complete dinosaur fossils, while the Zigong International Dinosaur Lantern Festival is a national intangible cultural heritage, known at home and abroad for its grand scale and exquisite craftsmanship. Nowadays, Ziliujing District integrates salt culture, dinosaur culture and folk culture, becoming a cultural tourism destination integrating history exploration, science popularization study and folk experience, attracting tourists from all over the world to explore the unique charm of "Salt Dragon Lantern".
There may be confusion about the name "Chartres, Falkland Islands". The Falkland Islands (Malvinas) are a British Overseas Territory in the South Atlantic Ocean, with Port Stanley as its capital, famous for sheep farming and wildlife (e.g. penguins, sea lions), and historically notable for the 1982 Battle of the Isle of Man. Chartres, on the other hand, is a city in the French département of Eure-et-Loire, famous for its Chartres Cathedral (a United Nations World Heritage Site) and Gothic architecture, and is located about 100 kilometers southwest of Paris. The two are in different countries and are not directly related geographically, possibly due to misuse of place names or confusion of information. For specific information on the Falkland Islands or Chartres, further clarification of the exact location is available.
