Louisville (/ˈluːivɪl/ (listen) LOO-ee-vil, US: /ˈluːɪvɪl/ (listen) LOO-ə-vəl, locally /ˈlʊvɪl/ (listen) LUUV-əl) is the largest city in the Commonwealth of Kentucky and the 28th most-populous city in the United States.[a] Louisville is the historical seat and, since 2003, the nominal seat of Jefferson County, on the Indiana border.

Named after King Louis XVI of France, Louisville was founded in 1778 by George Rogers Clark, making it one of the oldest cities west of the Appalachians. With nearby Falls of the Ohio as the only major obstruction to river traffic between the upper Ohio River and the Gulf of Mexico, the settlement first grew as a portage site. It was the founding city of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, which grew into a 6,000-mile (9,700 km) system across 13 states.

Today, the city is known as the home of boxer Muhammad Ali, the Kentucky Derby, Kentucky Fried Chicken, the University of Louisville and its Cardinals, Louisville Slugger baseball bats, and three of Kentucky's six Fortune 500 companies: Humana, Kindred Healthcare, and Yum! Brands. Muhammad Ali International Airport, Louisville's main commercial airport, hosts UPS's worldwide hub.

Baoshan District, located in the north of Shanghai, is divided into two parts: land and island. On land, it is bordered by the Yangtze River in the northeast, Huangpu River in the east, Yangpu, Hongkou, Jing'an and Putuo in the south, Jiading District in the west, Taicang City in Jiangsu Province in the northwest, and Yunzaobang in the middle of China. Wusong Bridge, Yunchuan Road Bridge, Jiangyang Road Bridge and Tangqiao Bridge span it. The two islands of Changxing and Hengsha lie in the south branch of the Yangtze River Estuary from west to east. They are 56.15km long from east to west and 23.08km wide from north to south, covering an area of 424.56 square kilometers. Located at the confluence of the Huangpu River and the Yangtze River, Baoshan can be called the "waterway gateway" of Shanghai. It connects more than 400 ports in 164 countries and regions by sea. The throughput of containers accounts for more than 70% of Shanghai Port.
