Hainan is the name given to both the smallest province of the Republic of China and the largest island within that province. Invariably when somebody makes reference to Hainan, it is the major island that they are talking about unless they specify otherwise. The island is a popular holiday destination that benefits from warm tropical weather and a correspondingly tropical eco-system. It’s these characteristics that have earned Hainan the nickname ‘Hawaii of the Orient’.
The island of Hainan has its fair share of things to keep the young ones occupied. The beaches of Yalong Bay offer days of outdoor fun while animal-based attractions such as the Sea Zoo and the Nanwan Monkey Island also provide family fun.

New Years Day: while the traditional Chinese New Year does not occur for another month, Hainan observes the celebrations of the western calendar with a nationwide holiday and typical get-togethers with family and friends.
Spend a few relaxing days on the beach in Sanya then grab your camera and hop in your hire car, a taxi or on the bus and go check out some of the island’s most interesting sights. The majority are man made, however the Shishan Volcanic Crater is a fascinating natural phenomenon that is certainly worth seeing. Of those in the former category, be sure not to miss the Five Ministers Memorial Tower, which is considered one of the island’s most important historic monuments.

Located 25km from the city of Haikou, the Haikou Meilan Airport is the chief gateway to the island of Hainan, maintaining connections with a large number of mainland Chinese cities such as Beijing, Dalian, Chengdu, Guangzhou, Qingdao, Nanjing, Shanghai and Wuhan and also other Asian destinations such as Bangkok, Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur and Singapore.
