Virginia Beach is an independent city located on the southeastern coast of the Commonwealth of Virginia in the United States. The population was 459,470 at the 2020 census. Although mostly suburban in character, it is the most populous city in Virginia, fifth-most populous city in the Mid-Atlantic, ninth-most populous city in the Southeast and the 42nd-most populous city in the U.S. Located on the Atlantic Ocean at the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay, Virginia Beach is the largest city in the Hampton Roads metropolitan area. This area, known as "America's First Region", also includes the independent cities of Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News, Norfolk, Portsmouth, and Suffolk, as well as other smaller cities, counties, and towns of Hampton Roads.

Virginia Beach is a resort city with miles of beaches and hundreds of hotels, motels, and restaurants along its oceanfront. Every year the city hosts the East Coast Surfing Championships as well as the North American Sand Soccer Championship, a beach soccer tournament. It is also home to several state parks, several long-protected beach areas, military bases, a number of large corporations, Virginia Wesleyan University and Regent University, the international headquarters and site of the television broadcast studios for Christian Broadcasting Network (CBN), Edgar Cayce's Association for Research and Enlightenment, and numerous historic sites. Near the point where the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean meet, Cape Henry was the site of the first landing of the English colonists, who eventually settled in Jamestown, on April 26, 1607.

Yulin, known as "Shangxun" in ancient times, began in the Spring and Autumn and warring States period, flourished in the Ming and Qing dynasties, and was stationed in Yansui Town (also known as Yulin Town), an important town on the nine frontiers of the Ming Dynasty. Emperor Kangxi engraved a stele of "two isolated cities and a thousand years of loyalty and courage". There is a good reputation of "the ancient city of Taichung in the north of South Tower, the sixth floor riding the street all over the world". Such a strange urban construction is rare in China, which is also an important symbol of Yulin as a national historical and cultural city. Yulin is located in the northernmost part of China's Shaanxi Province, at the junction of the Loess Plateau and Maowusu Sandy Land, which is the transitional area between the Loess Plateau and the Inner Mongolia Plateau. Facing the Yellow River and Shanxi Province in the east, Ningxia and Gansu in the west, Yan'an in the south and Ordos in the north, it is the border of Shaanxi, Gansu, Ningxia, Mongolia and Jin. It has jurisdiction over 2 districts, 1 county-level city and 9 counties, with a resident population of 340
