      An aerial drone photo shows a view of the Lekki Port in Lagos, Nigeria, on Nov. 30, 2024. The Lekki Port and the Lekki Free Trade Zone are both located in the Lekki Peninsula of Lagos, Nigeria's largest city. The Lekki Port, a commercial cooperation project constructed by China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd., stands as Nigeria's first deep seaport and one of the largest of its kind in West Africa. The port began commercial operations in April 2023, with a designed capacity to handle 1.2 million standard containers annually. The Lekki Free Trade Zone, developed and operated by China Railway Construction Corporation, spans 30 square kilometers. The duo of port and free trade zone gave birth to a synergistic development model, which significantly shortens cargo transport time, boosts Nigeria's foreign trade, and injects new momentum into the local economy.

                      (240509) -- BEIJING, May 9, 2024 (Xinhua) -- An aerial drone photo taken on April 25, 2024 shows tourists on the Zhaozhou Bridge in Zhaoxian County, north China's Hebei Province. Built in the Sui Dynasty (581-618), the 1,400-year-old Zhaozhou Bridge stands over the Xiaohe River in Zhaoxian County, Hebei Province. It is the world's oldest single-arch bridge. A combination of location, design and excellent construction are the main reasons why the bridge has withstood earthquake, flood and war for 1,400 years. Along with such world-famous landmarks as the Forbidden City and the Great Wall, the bridge was listed into China's first group of national cultural heritage protection sites in 1961. Nowadays, the Zhaozhou Bridge scenic area has been open to public for free, bringing numerous tourists into the county. (Xinhua/Wang Yuguo)
