Hankou and Sanya cities on Hainan island
China, Hainan Island, the cities of Hankou and Sanya. Came to the island quite by accident. Flight Kyiv-Hankou as much as 13.5 hours with refueling in Astana. We went to the GOLDEN SUNSHINE HOTSPRING RESORT 4 * Hotel. Good Hotel, buffet, thermal springs on site. The only negative is to be in a very quiet area, there is practically no one on the streets and it is difficult to find where to eat until 17-00. We went by bus to the old city, where life is seething. But still there is nothing to do in Hankou. The next day, we had an excursion to the Safari Park in Hainan, which occupies a vast territory where rare species of tropical plants grow, and 4.000 species of rare birds and animals roam freely. The very teddy bears that we dream of are considered to be the full owners of the Park cuddle since childhood - pandas! Then 4 hours on the bus and we are in the city of Sanya, Dadonghai district, Hotel Biboluo 3 *. The first place we went to was, of course, the sea. Warm, clean and beautiful. The hotel is very well located, in the very center of events, near the shopping center Winter, Leto, Pineapple, a park, an embankment with a bunch of cafes with live music, you can buy any fruit, seafood. But we ate at Lina's very tasty, inexpensive and large portions, the landmark is always standing in line waiting for a free table. There is also a map marker on maps. me. coordinates 18°13′.32. 56″ N 109°31′.06. 79″ E
It was interesting to visit Chinese shops, markets, walk along the streets, try Chinese food. We walked along the pedestrian street. Everything is here: a huge market with clothes, shoes; a large grocery store, a seafood market (they will cook everything for you right away), souvenir shops, cafes, KFC, McDonalds.
I would not say that it is very expensive here. Things are not expensive, but the food is a little pricey, but within reason.
We also ate Peking duck at the Moscow restaurant for 88 yuan, a very interesting serving and ate one dish in the fourth.
In terms of excursions, we visited Deer Mountain on our own, the entrance ticket is 42 yuan + 15 yuan a bus around the park. Romantic show 2 yuan bus, 300 entrance ticket with a seat. They didn’t try medicine.
Summary. Hainan is a truly beautiful island. If you want to go for a week. In no case. Go for 2. We didn’t really manage to do anything in a week. Several excursions, the beach and all. We didn’t have time to really see the city, we didn’t even have enough time to sunbathe. I really had a wonderful rest here!
P. s. You can’t take out coconuts, the guide didn’t warn you, I had to leave them at the airport.
