Sanya and Haikou
As the most developed beach resort in China, Sanya in Hainan Province has become a popular holiday destination. That’s especially so in winter, since the highs remain around 25 degrees Celsius in all seasons. So Sanya is not only a good place to escape from pollution, but also from chilly weather. Activities include diving in Yalong Bay, taking a hot springs bath in Nantian, observing the life in coral reefs in the Sanya Coral Reef National Nature Preserve or just enjoying the sunshine on the beach.
The Yanoda resort has one of the best preserved rain forests in Hainan Province.
Yacheng old town to the west of Sanya, originally built in 1198, has been guarding the south end of China for thousands of years. There are many cultural relics worth a visit.
Ancient tombs of Muslim believers are preserved in Tengqiao Town of Sanya. A crucial gateway along the ancient seafaring Silk Road, Sanya saw numerous Muslim traders.
