Helping one is helping all! - Precautions Sanya in June and July is really hot and sunny! Sun protection is a must, otherwise, you'll get a new skin color, and sunscreen needs to be reapplied frequently For places with lots of grass like the Coconut Dream Corridor, take mosquito prevention measures in advance. There are a lot of mosquitoes and midges, so be very careful! It is not recommended to take taxis in Sanya, as the starting price is 10 yuan, which is somewhat high. It's better to book rides online, where the prices are open and transparent Chairs on the beaches of Wuzhizhou Island, West Island, and Yalong Bay are charged. It's recommended to check before sitting down to see if it costs 💰 Sanya is divided into four major bay areas, Dadonghai and Sanya Bay are in the urban area, while Yalong Bay and Haitang Bay are farther away. Make sure to plan your strategy and itinerary for the bay areas before visiting each attraction It's really recommended to rent an electric scooter when playing in the urban area, it's convenient to go anywhere, mainly because it doesn't get stuck in traffic, and be sure to wear a helmet otherwise the police uncle will invite you for tea Outfit for photo shoots: Light-colored, bright-colored, and brightly colored dresses and clothes, matched with the glass jelly sea, it's hard not to get good photos! - Attractions There are many photo spots at the Coconut Dream Corridor, such as: opposite the Haiyun Resort, Sanya Wedding Photography Spot, Beautiful New Coast, Haiyue Plaza, Haihong Plaza Both Wuzhizhou Island and West Island are island attractions, you can choose one to visit, both are great for taking photos and water activities.

One of the main attractions of Nanshan Park is the temple with a golden statue of Guanyin. This particular statue, blindingly white in the summer sun, was built over six years from 1999. My Chinese hosts explained that the person depicted isn't the actual founder of the Buddhist religion, the Nepalese-Indian prince Siddhartha Gautama, but someone else named Guan Yin, who followed his teachings. According to legend, having reached perfection, Guanyin did not want to go to nirvana from compassion for the world. In Chinese mythology, Guanyin is a deity that saves from troubles and misfortunes, caring and infinitely compassionate, asking the gods for well-being for people. #lightthecity #scenicspotguide #lightthecity

🌴 The moment you step into the Nanshan Sea Goddess of Mercy Scenic Area in Sanya, it feels as if your soul has been purified, with a sense of tranquility and solemnity washing over you. 💖 This place is not only a convergence of natural beauty but also a sacred site for many believers to worship and pray for blessings. 🙏 Upon entering the scenic area, the first thing that catches your eye is the towering statue of the Goddess of Mercy. She stands quietly on the sea, like a compassionate guardian, silently watching over every visitor. The 108-meter-tall statue of the Goddess of Mercy is majestic and sacred from every angle. 🔥 As you stroll through the scenic area, you can often see believers praying devoutly in front of the Goddess of Mercy statue. Some hold incense, while others bow their heads in silent prayer, with each face reflecting a wish for a better life. This atmosphere allows me to feel the power of religion and prompts deeper reflection on life. 🏯 In addition to the Goddess of Mercy statue, there are many other attractions worth visiting within the scenic area. For example, the exquisite Goddess of Mercy Hall, which houses various Buddha statues, each one lifelike, making one marvel at the craftsmen's superb skills. 🌊 There is also the winding seaside plank road, walking along which you can enjoy the magnificent seascape and distant mountains, as if you are in a beautiful painting. 🌅 During the visit, I was also deeply attracted by the natural beauty of the scenic area. Blue sky, white clouds, azure sea, golden sands... These elements intertwine to create a stunning picture. Here, I felt the magic and charm of nature and experienced the harmonious coexistence of humans and nature.

The Thirty-Three Guanyin Hall is a beautiful collection of Guanyin statues, and the temple is resplendent with gold, where you can copy Buddhist scriptures for free and experience Buddhist culture. Nanshan Temple is a Tang Dynasty-style temple facing the sea and nestled in the mountains, featuring a bell tower, a wheel repository, a Hall of Benevolent Kings, a Hall of Heavenly Kings, and more. It is the largest temple in southern China, and a great place to take a leisurely visit with your parents and pray for blessings for the whole family. Notes for Worshipping Buddha: Do not wear flip-flops or shorts above the knee, do not bring sunglasses and hats for the visit, and do not take photos at will. There are many people touching the Buddha's feet, and the elevator queue can be long, so you may choose to take the stairs. When worshipping Buddha, one must be sincere, with hands together, thumbs tucked inside the palms, placed at the chest, and refrain from speaking nonsense. Each person is given three free incense sticks when worshipping Guanyin. The method is to hold the incense in the right hand, light it, and offer it with the left hand. Do not blow out the lit incense with your mouth; instead, use your hand to fan or flick the flame out. Nanshan Temple

🌊 Sanya Nanshan Temple is the southernmost Buddhist temple in China, and it is the most famous Buddhist cultural park in the Nanshan Cultural Tourism Zone, known as the 'Buddhist Jungle by the Sea'. Nanshan has always been regarded by Buddhists as a land of auspicious blessings and has a special connection with Buddhist culture. However, even if you're not religious, this place is definitely worth a visit for its more spectacular than the Statue of Liberty's three-faced Guanyin, the beautiful sea-viewing platform, and the vast greenery and bodhi trees. 🏄🏻‍♂️ For internal transportation, the main mode of transport within the scenic area is a small train, with tickets priced at 20 yuan per seat. With a ticket, you can hop on and off at any station and take a round trip. You can board at the Non-Duality Gate and Nanshan Temple stations, where the conductor will tear off a small section of your ticket. If both sections of the ticket are torn off, you can only take a half trip. 🎖 The most famous is the sea-based white jade Guanyin statue, standing at 108 meters tall, which is sure to be awe-inspiring. It features three different poses of Guanyin, and because it's so large, visitors can only touch the toes of Guanyin. It's definitely more spectacular than the Statue of Liberty! 🏯 The sea-viewing platform is very beautiful, especially quiet during the off-season, with clear blue seas and skies; there are also gorgeous coconut groves and grasslands, bodhi trees, pigeons that are not afraid of people; as well as various Tang Dynasty buildings and exotic religious structures. 🗽 Although most people come here for religious beliefs, the architecture, sculptures, scenery, and the sea are definitely worth a visit for everyone. When in Sanya, you might skip the End of the Earth, but Nanshan is a must-visit!

✅Sanya Nanshan Cultural Tourism Area (Nanshan Temple, South Sea Guanyin), 5A, ticket price 129, parking 8 yuan, suggested tour time 3～5 hours, because you can 👀 the sea for a long time. Key point: Be sure to go to the sea-viewing platform in front of Nanshan Temple. About South Sea Guanyin: ✨Approved by the State Council in 1993 and completed in 1999, it is located on a coast of Yacheng in Sanya, known as South Sea Guanyin, and the mountain behind it is called Nanshan. 🌟It is the world's first golden jade Guanyin Bodhisattva statue and the treasure of Hainan Island. The Guanyin statue is 108 meters high, with three bodies, each holding a lotus, a bead, and a sutra box in their hands, stepping on a lotus throne with 108 petals. The Vajra platform under the lotus throne is the Yuan Tong Bao Dian, and the 280-meter-long Puji Bridge is connected to the mainland. ✳️The three Guanyins each hold a bead, a lotus, and a sutra box in their hands, each with different implications: ☞✨The front is the Guanyin holding the sutra box, embodying the prajna virtue of Guanyin, that is, the wisdom virtue. The sutra box represents the six hundred volumes of the Prajna Sutra, observing all sentient beings and freely converting them, and enlightening sentient beings with prajna. ✨The right side is the Guanyin holding the rosary, embodying the liberation virtue of Guanyin, that is, completely getting rid of ignorance and various fetters, reaching the state of great freedom and ease, expressing the compassionate spirit of 'sentient beings recite the Buddha, and the Buddha recites sentient beings' as equals. ✨The left side is the Guanyin holding the lotus, embodying the dharma body virtue of Guanyin. Guanyin is the main deity of the Lotus Department of Esoteric Buddhism. The lotus is the samaya form of Guanyin, symbolizing the 'eternal joy and purity' four virtues; it is the holy flower in Buddhism, symbolizing the sentient beings' meatball heart, the lotus body is pure, out of the mud but not stained, the root and stem are connected, symbolizing 'the heart, Buddha, sentient beings, three without difference'. It generally represents the purity and six roots of Guanyin.

The fortune teller's off-duty time is 5 o'clock, so if you want to draw lots, you have to go early.

Sanya is often warned against as a trap, with concerns about heavy rain and missed opportunities to see the glass sea. I arrived on the 1st, and despite forecasts of heavy rain, it remained dry. The sky was clear, the sea was azure, but the heat was intense, with a felt temperature around 35 degrees. Days are hot and sunny, so if you're traveling with a baby, make sure to pack high-factor sunscreen. **Hotel Choices:** 1. Budget travelers should consider staying in the [Sanya Bay] area, which is convenient for dining, accommodation, and transportation. 2. For resort hotels, [Yalong Bay] and [Haitang Bay] are popular choices, offering private beaches and privacy. 3. Boutique guesthouses can be found in [Bohou Village], [Tianya Town], and [Houhai Village], all close to the sea. **Travel Tips:** - Early mornings and evenings bring a cool breeze to the seaside, but also a swarm of mosquitoes, so insect repellent is a must. - The sea along Coconut Dream Avenue isn't as clear for swimming or water activities. The coconut groves at "Sanya Bay Wedding Photography Base" and "Haiyue Square" are small but offer a great sunset view. - For a less crowded beach experience, head to [Tianya Town], where the water is clear and the crowds are sparse. - Visit [Nanshan Temple] early in the morning to avoid the crowds climbing the seven floors to touch the Buddha's feet. Dress modestly, as revealing clothing may not be allowed. - [Xiyu Island] and [Wuzhizhou Island] are free if you arrive before June 30th. Xiyu Island's fishing village is picturesque and affordable, while Wuzhizhou Island is better for water activities but pricier. - The night view of [Lu Hu Return] is stunning, but avoid bringing food due to wild monkeys. Drone photography is not permitted. - The [Tropical Forest Park] has great air quality but many steps, making it less suitable for the elderly and children. - [Sun Bay Highway] is for driving only and has a 7-minute parking limit, not ideal for photo-taking. Drones are not allowed. - Recommended restaurants include: - [Babaob Tree Uncle's Centennial Stewed Vinegar] for authentic hotpot and crispy skin roast chicken. - [Qiongye Grandpa's Cool Drink and Ice] for a large portion of fruit ice and fresh coconut milk in cool drinks. - [Qiong Nai's Herbs Duck] for a local Hainan specialty with juicy duck meat, often frequented by locals.
