Sanya Section of Hainan

Sanya is a very suitable place for vacation and travel. Nature combines the most pleasant climate, the freshest air, the warmest sunshine, the bluest sea water, The softest sandy beaches, the most charming beauties, and the most delicious seafood...are all bestowed upon this southernmost seaside tourist city in China.

Don’t join a hurried tour group when going to Sanya, be a true “self-tourist”. I hope my answer can help you have a pleasant trip.

D1. Preparation before departure

The sunshine in Sanya is beautiful and the beaches are beautiful, but if you want to be beautiful, you must use skin care products. Sunscreen with SPF30 or above is a must, and you can bring soothing after-sun repair lotion, moisturizing spray, whitening mask, etc. Shampoo and conditioner are also necessary. The sea water is very harmful to your hair, and the ones provided by the hotel are of inferior quality.

When you arrive in Sanya, you must go into the sea. You must prepare your swimsuit, swimming goggles, and earplugs. Bring a change of clothing (the temperature difference between day and night is huge, long sleeves are a must), a sun umbrella, a sun hat, sunglasses, and beach slippers.

Medicines should also be prepared. Anti-allergic medicine, cold medicine, anti-diarrheal medicine, painkillers, band-aids, eye drops, sterile cotton balls, etc. Also, if you want to eat seafood, bring some norfloxacin and berberine. Don’t forget your cell phone, camera and charger. Bring your Walkman, paper and pen, and prepare some snacks and food you like.

As a reminder, when signing a contract with a travel agency, be sure to write down the details, such as who will pay for the hotel's adjustment fund, and whether the hotel provides airport pick-up and drop-off services. In addition, it is best to ask the hotel to include breakfast.

D2. Accommodation

It is recommended to stay in Dadonghai. Sanya has three bays: Dadonghai, Sanya Bay and Yalong Bay. The advantage of Dadonghai is that it is the closest to the city. It is convenient for shopping, eating, traveling and entertainment. There are fireworks on the beach at night, making it quiet and economical.

Yalong Bay is the most beautiful bay. The water color is layered and the beach is whiter. You can also pick up shells. There are many sand crabs at night. However, the consumption of Yalong Bay Hotel is relatively the highest. It is far away from the city (more than 20 kilometers), making shopping, eating and traveling inconvenient. But you can still consider staying here for 1-2 nights. If MONEY allows, you can stay directly in Yalong Bay, or even consider staying in a thatched house on Wuzhizhou Island for one night.

The best hotel to choose is a beachfront hotel or a hotel with a private beach. There is no need to spend extra money to live in a sea view room. In fact, apart from sleeping at night, I don’t spend much time in the room. When I am interested in leaning on the railing and looking at the sea, I have already thought about running directly to the sea. In addition, there are many old hotels in Sanya, so it is best to stay in newly built hotels with relatively better hardware facilities.

D3. Transportation:

1. Sanya Phoenix Airport is 20 kilometers away from the city. There are buses from the airport directly to the city (fare 10 yuan), and the taxi price should be controlled at 35 yuan. about. The taxi driver who picks you up at the airport will enthusiastically introduce you to the free tours and the great attractions on the way. Believe that "there is no free lunch", they will trick you into spending money (for tickets, meals, and shopping, they may get a commission). Remember two things when taking a taxi in Sanya: first, don’t charter a taxi, and second, don’t visit or spend money in any of the places recommended by him.

2. Taxi prices in Sanya are all negotiable, so don’t use a meter. Basically, the price within Sanya is 5 yuan (with a cap of 7 yuan), 10 yuan from Dadonghai to the urban area, 15 yuan from the urban area to Dadonghai, 30 yuan from Yalong Bay to Dadonghai, and no more than 40 yuan from Dadonghai to Tianya Haijiao. Taxi drivers often charge exorbitant prices, so you have to be bold in cutting them. Don't let the hotel doorman call for a taxi. Walk out of the hotel door and stop the passing cars on the road.

3. Buses should be fully utilized. There is only one main street in the urban area (Jiefang Road), running north to south. You can use this road as the coordinate axis to go to major scenic spots, shopping, and food destinations. Bus No. 2 is very convenient, with many buses (all seats available), friendly conductors and drivers, and cheap (unmanned ticket sales are 1 yuan/person). How to truly feel a city, take a bus. (/community/pic_read.php?id=6938) There is a detailed bus route map above

4. From Yalong Bay via Dadonghai to Tianya Haijiao, and Double-decker tourist buses depart every half hour.

The journey from Dadonghai to Tianya Haijiao and Yalong Bay is 5 yuan, and from Tianya Haijiao to Yalong Bay is 8 yuan. It is very suitable for travelers to enjoy the scenery along the way. The fare of the minibus is also less than 5 yuan, but the order is a little more chaotic. In the urban area, you can ride on a human-powered tricycle (with a cap of 2 yuan), but it is best not to ride on a motorcycle.

5. If you can drive, you can consider renting a car for the whole trip to avoid affecting your mood. Only in this way can you truly travel freely. The biggest advantage of renting a car is that you can adjust your itinerary at any time, buy things as you like without being burdened by luggage, and don't have to be angry or ripped off by the driver.

4. Travel:

Sanya is only suitable for self-tourists, not group tours. The scenery in all places is not much different. It is recommended to only go to Jinmujiao and Wuzhizhou Island. (If you live in Yalong Bay, you don’t need it. If you don’t live in Yalong Bay, you should check it out). It is indeed a very enjoyable thing to live by the sea for a period of time with the one you love, quietly.

1. Jinmujiao is located 20 kilometers southeast of Sanya City, bordering Yulin Bay to the west and Yalong Bay to the east. It is located at the southernmost tip of Hainan Island and the southernmost tip of China’s continental shelf. People used to mention the end of the world. The Cape of the Sea is always considered to be the "End of the World" in Sanya. In fact, to be precise, "Jinmujiao" is the real End of the World and the Corner of the Sea.

The entire promontory of "Jinmu Cape" and the surrounding mountains are integrated into one. Since there are troops stationed here, it is a military restricted area. Except for the solitary lighthouse between the sea and the sky, it is inaccessible and picturesque. You can see the same color of water and sky and the vast mist. There are many beautiful scenery that are unknown to everyone.

Jinmujiao is a good place for fishing, picnicking, swimming and diving. Recommend Sanya Star. The price is 218 yuan/person (118 yuan/person for children 1.2 meters to 1.4 meters), which includes fishing + snorkeling + dining + round-trip transportation. It is very affordable and their products can also be seen on Taobao, which is very convenient.

2. Check the weather before going to Wuzhizhou Island. If there are strong winds and waves, you cannot go to the island. Wuzhizhou Island has clear sea water and white sandy beach, just like the beach in "Summer Tea". The most beautiful scenery of Wuzhizhou Island is at Lover's Bridge. Standing on the shore, you can see the coral reefs on the bottom of the shallow sea. The Sun View Rock on the island is worth a visit, where you can see the endless sea. The blue sky and the boundless sea are connected together, which is very spectacular.

There is a sightseeing bus on the island, which allows you to travel around the entire island (half of the distance is inaccessible on foot. 80 yuan/person, and a scenery VCD is also included). Wuzhizhou Island has strong winds, so you need to prepare a winter coat! Make the most of your hotel's bathrobes, towels, and slippers. Bring these items with you for sure. The water sports on Wuzhizhou Island are very complete. The diving is very good, mainly shore diving and boat diving: the price is 380 or 580 yuan per time. The instructor will teach everyone the theoretical knowledge of diving before diving. It doesn’t matter if you don’t know how to swim. When diving, the lifting and lowering are controlled by the instructor through the equipment.

The banana boat ride is for three people. You need to wear swimsuits otherwise you will get soaked and you will be thrown into the sea, but it is safe and someone will save you. It feels like a trip to the "Titanic". The price of the motorboat is 150 yuan/10 minutes. If a boy and a girl are together, the boy should take the initiative to sit in the back, because it is easy to be thrown out from the back, so be sure to pay attention to safety. The price of parasailing is 280 yuan per time. A high-powered speedboat is used to pull up the parachute, and the parachute floats in the air by relying on the rapid progress of the speedboat. The above projects recommend Sanya Star because they all have discounts. Maybe you will think this is advertising, but it can help you save a lot of money, so be wise!

3. The beaches and hotels in Yalong Bay are both good and worth visiting. No need to buy a ticket, just walk along the beach to get in. The beach in Yalong Bay is just beautiful. When you come to Sanya, you don't go anywhere and just stay on this beach every day, and you won't suffer any loss. Swim, walk, sunbathe on a deck chair – be comfortable. When you see a hammock, just play with it, it’s very nice.

If you like walking, it is recommended to walk along the beach of Yalong Bay from the Yalong Bay Central Square to the Sheraton Hotel. When you come back, you can pass through the Wanhao Hotel and take the avenue. There are very few people here, and the tranquility and reverie feel like strolling in your own garden.

4. I heard that there is also Boundary Island, which is very good, but it is far away from Sanya and it takes more than 3 hours to get back, so you don’t need to go if you have a short time. Don’t go to Luhuitou Park, Tianya Haijiao, Nanshan Temple, and Big and Small Cave Heavens. There are so many people that I really don’t know what to see after entering.

Of course, if you’re tired of staying in hotels or sleeping on the beach, it’s okay to choose one or two scenic spots to visit, but it would be a pity not to go to any of them.

5. You can try a self-driving tour. Sanya is probably the most suitable city in China for open-top cars. Rent a car and go for a drive along Sanya’s famous Coastal Avenue Coconut Dream Corridor. Driving along the avenue from south to north, it is so pleasant to listen to the sound of waves lapping on the shore, breathe in the fresh sea breeze, and enjoy the sea view as you move from place to place. The avenue leads all the way to Sanya Bay, which takes about 30 minutes from start to finish. There are also some seafood stalls and resorts along the way. If you are tired, you can have something to eat and enjoy yourself.

5. Eating

Everyone must remember that you should never eat at cheap food stalls that hand out business cards or offer free shuttle service, without even hesitating. If you don’t believe it, you will regret it.

It is recommended to have breakfast in the hotel, lunch at random, and important dinner in the city. Breakfast in Sanya hotels usually ends at 10:30 am, so you can rest assured that you can fall asleep and wake up naturally. At the same time, it is recommended that you try not to eat dinner in the hotel.

An important activity during the trip to Sanya is eating seafood. There are two best places to eat seafood in Sanya. One is Coconut Grove in the eastern suburbs of Dadonghai. It is famous for its petty bourgeois atmosphere, has a variety of cooking techniques, and is relatively expensive. Recommended: tiger fish + white tofu soup = extremely fresh. There are also freshly squeezed coconut milk and coconut milk rice which are delicious. Try to eat some shrimps, crabs and fish, and crab porridge is also great.

The other one is the famous "Chunyuan Seafood Plaza". Sanya Star recommends going there to have a pleasant dinner, which is particularly cheap and good. Please note that it is "Chunyuan", not "Chunyuan" or "Chunyuan". Most taxi drivers will pretend to be confused and take you to a place called "Chunyuan Seafood Food Stall" The real Spring Garden is 6 or 7 minutes' walk away.

Chunyuan Seafood Plaza is a large greenhouse with 70 food stalls. After entering, you first go to the innermost stall to buy seafood and vegetables, and then come out and choose one of the many stalls to process it for you. The main way of eating is hot pot, and the seafood can also be simply steamed or stir-fried. The stall owner only charges corresponding processing fees (stir-fried/steamed processing fee 5 yuan per catty, hot pot 10 yuan for pot base, processing fee 2 yuan per catty) , is a more economical and affordable way to eat. The key to eating seafood is "freshness". The seafood here is all fresh and of course it tastes great.

There are a lot of shellfish, but the scallops are the most delicious. Although they are not very big, the meat is very thick. Among the fish, Su Mei is the most delicious, and Grouper Qingyi is also good. The abalone is also great and very cheap, so everyone must try it. There is also a three-eyed crab, which is not big and the meat is very tender. You will know it is fresh as soon as you eat it. The local vegetables, green beans and Wuzhishan wild vegetables are also good.

Remember, Chunyuan Seafood Plaza is 500 meters north of City Paradise, across the Sanya Bridge from the Dadonghai direction, and then go straight north on Yanxi Hexi Road. It is recommended to take bus 202 to Guoxi Hotel (Jixiang Street) and turn right along Jixiang Street for 500 meters. Mingrun and 168 across from Chunyuan Plaza are also good, and their business methods are very similar.

6. Shopping

When you come to Sanya, you always need to bring something with you when you go back. Most of them fall into three categories: Hainan specialties (snacks), seafood and fruits, and shells. These can be bought in downtown Sanya. When shopping, try not to buy at tourist attractions.

It is best to buy specialty products in large supermarkets in urban areas. The largest local supermarkets include Wanghao Supermarket and Wanfulong, both of which are near Sanya Bus Terminal and can be reached by taking bus No. 202. You can buy some snacks and specialties. I think the coconut cake is quite delicious. The specialty is coconut candy, and the soft candies are even more delicious. The coconut pancakes are also very delicious. Wanghao Supermarket also offers free packaging in cartons, which is very convenient.

If you want to buy seafood and fruits, you must go to the "No. 1 Farmers Market". Just take bus No. 202 and get off at the First Market Station. There are many varieties available, including mangosteen, mango, dragon fruit, and carambola. The price is relatively cheap, but the quality and weight are not guaranteed (it is recommended to bring an unopened bottle of mineral water so you can check the accuracy of their scale at any time. Not allowed). It is better to buy by the whole box, which is convenient for shipping.

7. Other suggestions:

1. Make your schedule more relaxed. It’s a vacation, so why make yourself so nervous.

After breakfast, go to the beach for a walk first, then go sightseeing. At 2 or 3 pm, you will go back to the hotel to rest, then go to the beach to swim and bask in the sun, and then rest again. Then it’s time to go to the city to eat seafood. Come back in the evening. I also went for a walk on the beach, which was very pleasant.

2. The humidity at the seaside is very high. Don’t think that clothes will dry quickly if the temperature is high and the sun is good. Bring extra changes of clothing, including T-shirts, shorts, etc.

3. Try to enjoy the sun and sea breeze on the beach if you have nothing to do. Listen to music and drink Coke. In the evening, you can listen to music, count the stars, and be in a daze on the balcony of your room. Don’t forget to slather on sunscreen.

Guangzhou-Shenzhen Section

Public Security: I’m really sorry about the security in Guangzhou and Shenzhen. There are not many places to play in Guangzhou. Let’s focus on Shenzhen. Ladies in Shenzhen have long been afraid of wearing gold. Necklace. Be careful with your mobile phone and wallet. You should be more careful in the following places: crowded bus stations and overpasses; Dongmen Pedestrian Street; Huaqiang North Commercial Street. On weekends, be careful even in large shopping malls.

Food: When traveling in Shenzhen, there is absolutely no need to worry about food. Shenzhen has restaurants with flavors from all over the country, and the prices are not expensive. Seafood is much cheaper than in the mainland. For students and backpackers, there are Guilin rice noodles and Changsha rice noodles that are suitable for you. They are available all over the street and cost 5-7 yuan a bowl. There are also various Chinese and Western fast food such as Pastry King and McDonald's. When you go to a restaurant to eat, don't be polite. See what's available first. You can eat the specials, such as squab for 8 yuan a piece and nine-section shrimp for 8 yuan a pound (but generally special dishes cannot be packaged), and the waiter will naturally remind you of the weight limit. But don’t eat seafood in northern restaurants. The seafood street in Yantian is absolutely a rip-off and the food is poorly cooked. Like the rest of the country, food in tourist attractions is expensive and not always hygienic. Bring your own bottle of mineral water and some convenient food.

Restaurants: Cantonese seafood - Mingxiang Restaurant, Lotus Island, Chunmanyuan (private rooms are very expensive), Phoenix Tower (high-end and high-priced), Good World (high-end and high-priced)

Jiangxi flavor —Folk crock pot simmering soup with Hunan and Hubei flavor — Hunan, Hubei and Sichuan flavor — Spicy crab, Bashu style

OK: Taxis in Shenzhen are very expensive, but in fact, buses extend in all directions. If you don’t clear the route, you can call 160 ask. But most of the *** buses are coin-operated, so prepare extra change. If there are conductors or waiters on the bus, they generally have a good attitude. If you ask, they will remind you when to get off.

Must-visit attractions in Shenzhen: Window of the World, Folk Culture Village. It is best to start the tour in the afternoon and leave after watching the evening performance.

Happy Valley is suitable for young tourists who like excitement.

Dameisha is a free attraction. There are many people in summer and weekends, so it is best to go during the week.

Diwang Building-Bookstore Diwang’s top floor can be visited or not.

Xianhu Botanical Garden is suitable for friends from the north to learn about tropical plants. The Fossil Museum is a must-see.

Other places: Shekou Bar Street, OCT Bar Street; OCT Sculpture Square;

I hope the poster will adopt it! Thank you
