The province is also seeking innovative ways to attract tourists by offering them diverse and exclusive experience. For instance, luxury hotel resorts are introducing cultural and educational programs to accommodation, which somewhat reflects Hainan's ambition to turn itself into the Dubai of China.


China also plans to further extend the offshore duty-free shopping policy in Hainan to cover all outbound tourists. Hainan has already had one of the world's largest duty-free shopping centers and it's now the fourth island in the world to pilot the policy.


The government wants Hainan to welcome more global investors, becoming a free trade zone by 2020 and a free trade port by 2025. In Sanya, the Phoenix Island International Cruise Port being upgraded is welcoming an increasing number of people internationally and the island can look forward to a brighter future.
