General situation of major cities
There are two prefecture-level cities in Hainan Province: Haikou and Sanya.
Haikou is the capital of Hainan Province, with a population of 1.6 million compared with other cities and counties in Hainan Province. Busy streets: Jiefang Road, Haixiu Road, Binhai Road and Guomao Avenue.
Haikou's famous snacks: abalone powder, Hainan powder, stir-fried diced snails, and coconut.
Sanya is the southernmost city in China, surrounded by the sea on three sides, and has the most beautiful coastal zone in China, with five bays: Yalong Bay, Dadonghai, Sanya Bay, Haitang Bay and Yazhou Bay. The population is over 400,000. In 1999, it was rated as the most promising tourist destination in China. In 2003, it was rated as the best living environment in China. Sanya seafood is famous in China.
2. Accommodation
At present, there are plenty of beds in hotels and family hotels all over the island in Hainan Province, so even if you travel to Hainan in the peak season, you don't have to worry about accommodation. Generally speaking, Hainan hotel prices are relatively low in China.
Haikou:
There are many hotels, so you can choose what kind of standard hotel you need to stay in. Hotels on Haixiu Road: Wanghailou Hotel, Haikou Hotel and Xinyuan Hot Spring. It's decorated with three or four stars. Haikou family inn doesn't seem to have one.
Boao:
Five-star hotels-Golden Coast Hot Spring Hotel, Sofitel Hotel (very comfortable, air conditioning is inductive:)
Four-star hotels-Blue Coast Hotel (with good external environment) and Jinjiang Hotel (each room is a sea view room).
There are many family hotels in Boao, and the prices are not high.
In Boao, no matter what kind of hotel you stay in, you will feel great value:)
Xinglong:
Five-star-Hainan Kangle Park Hotel (first-class environment)
There are many three-and four-star hotels, so I won't introduce them here. The overall housing price in Xinglong is not high. It can be said that the housing price in Hainan is very cost-effective.
Xinglong you family inn
Sanya:
Yalong Bay area-five-star hotels are all very good, all by the sea, and the highest room rate of the same standard is Xilaideng.
Three or four-star standards are: Palme d 'Or, Zhiyuan Garden, Cactus Hotel and Underwater World Hotel.
This area is 26 kilometers away from the city, but the environment is super good. Yalong Bay Beach is so beautiful in the evening.
There are many four-and five-star hotels in Dadonghai area, and the price is lower than that in Yalong Bay area, and the outside environment is also very good, and it is also by the sea. Five-star hotels Yintai and Shanhaitian Hotel are very good. Four-star hotels such as Lijing Bay and Pearl River Garden are all good. Jinling Resort is the first three-star hotel in this area (personal opinion), where there are family hotels (Dadong seaside Yadong holiday apartment and Nanfeng leisure vacation house! Blue Sky International Youth Hostel, Haihua Holiday Apartment, Sunshine Seascape Apartment Hotel, and make up after collection). This area is on the edge of the city, one kilometer away from the city.
There are many four-and five-star hotels in Sanya Bay area, which is a good place to spend a holiday by the sea. The price is cheaper than the above two areas, but the disadvantage is that it is far from the urban area. The distance from the city is more than ten kilometers.
Urban area-There are many hotels in the urban area, and there are many hotels and family hotels in Jiefang Road, Hedong Road and Sanya Bay Binhai Road (Sanya Bay Jinyu Seascape Family Hotel, Haiyuan Family Hotel, Blue Sea and Blue Sky and Good Time Holiday Apartment, Lanhai Garden, which will be added after collection).
3. Diet <;
Four famous dishes in Hainan: Wenchang Chicken (sliced in white, with Hainan chicken rice is more authentic), Jiaji Duck in Qionghai, and Wanning East Goat (East Goat makes braised pork with the best taste). ), Hele crab (it seems that it is best to eat in autumn and winter, and there are many crab fat creams)
Hainan's famous dishes: stewed chicken cup with coconut, abalone in the South China Sea, green lobster (delicious when eaten raw:), Lingao suckling pig, Nada dog meat, Xinglong lemon duck, Huangliu old duck and Houan mullet.
Snacks in Haikou (Author: About winter)
1 In the alley next to the department store on Jiefang West Road, several stalls sell famous snacks, such as pig blood, sesame paste, conch and so on.
2. There are also near the overpass in Haikou No.1 Middle School.
3. In the evening, the stalls on the square road of the Workers' Cultural Palace are full of local snacks. It's really mouth watering!
4. Xinjiang kebabs are a must at the gate of the Workers' Cinema.
What Sanya eats: Chinatown barbecue, there is an Iraqi barbecue in front of a mangrove hotel across Chinatown, where the baked phoenix fish is classic, and there is a Hongxiang food city in Hedong, where the evening tea is very good!
Huangliu Old Duck in Hainan: There are many old duck soup shops in Shengli Road.
Pasta: jiaozi, the royal flower of Jiefang Road (although it is not well managed, it is slow to go to jiaozi, but it tastes really good).
Basically, people who go to Sanya will eat seafood.
Some tourists are slaughtered for eating seafood, so how to eat seafood?
First, choose a place
A. Coconut grove seafood in the eastern suburbs has a good environment, reasonable price and good taste. There are chain stores all over the country, and the location is easy to find, diagonally opposite Dadonghai Square. More expensive seafood, such as abalone, all kinds of lobsters. There is only one in Sanya. You may think that only the price of the gear is the cheapest, not necessarily.
B, Spring Garden seafood is a good choice, but the grade is low, there is not too expensive seafood, and the hygiene is average. Besides, there are many seafood stalls called Spring Garden in Sanya, which is hard to find.
Second, a good attitude
A, for the package recommended by the tour guide, although there is a commission in it, it is far cheaper than a stranger taking you to eat seafood. Don't believe me. A set meal is more affordable than a la carte, and you can find a tour guide if you have any questions. (Of course, I mean the licensed tour guide)
B, if you go to eat by yourself, you must have a good attitude, don't be greedy for cheap, how can there be a pie in the sky? Order some common seafood, which is not too heavy. Never eat a business card or a cheap food stall with a free car, and you can't even hesitate. Their prices are definitely different from those on the business cards, and they are forced to buy and sell. If you say you have a look at something, he will take it out and throw it directly at you, and you have to take it if you don't want it. Don't believe it? When the price comes out, you will be dreary. Don't believe the nonsense that abalone in Sanya is only a few tens of yuan a catty. There are no abalone in all the food stalls in Sanya, and you can only see abalone in restaurants or hotel restaurants in Sanya.
Third, don't eat seafood in Sichuan cuisine or Hunan restaurant, because good seafood tastes bad.
Common "Traps" of Seafood Consumption
Traveling to Sanya to eat seafood has gradually become a brand, but some seafood shops use tourists' curiosity to set traps. After analysis, Sanya Industrial and Commercial Bureau pointed out that these traps should attract tourists' attention to avoid being cheated.
One of the traps: Seafood store operators take advantage of foreign tourists' ignorance and curiosity about seafood, and do everything possible to lure tourists to order some expensive seafood, or pass ordinary seafood off as precious seafood, saying that it is "deep sea, not found anywhere else" and so on. After asking exorbitant prices, they cheat consumers under the guise of discount. In fact, the discounted price is still far higher than the normal price.
Trap 2: in order to deceive consumers, deliberately set the seafood price very low on the business cards and discount cards to attract customers, and then cheat on the scales. Consumers should confirm whether operators use electronic scales when consuming.
Trap 3: Some seafood shops use wild protected animals as bait to trick consumers into taking the bait. For example, they call "Cuckoo" a beautiful abalone, "Cuckoo" an abalone, and a melon snail a crown snail. Consumers should be alert and report such cases in time.
Trap 4: Some seafood shops have a guilty conscience and use fake invoices prepared in advance to deal with consumers while cheating customers by improper means. Consumers should ask for an invoice after consumption, and carefully check whether the official seal stamped on the invoice belongs to the store.
Trap 5: Some seafood shop operators cheat tourists by low quotation and high settlement. For example, when tourists order and bargain, the store promises only 100 yuan 1 kg of seafood, but when the tourists finish eating, the bill says 140 yuan or even higher consumption price, which makes the tourists have to eat dumb. Consumers should carefully check the menu after ordering. (Wu Zhongbin, Chen Jianquan)
4. Play projects
You must dive when you arrive in Sanya.
First, choose a place
Diving sites are: Yalong Bay (well protected and rich in seabed resources), Fenjiezhou Island (where you can play thrilling diving, such as sinking and wall diving), wuzhizhou (rich in seabed resources) and Xiaodonghai diving (with more coaches and good service attitude). The government announced the price of these places as 247 yuan/person +3 yuan/person's Cailanzi Fund.
The underwater resources of Dadonghai have been destroyed, and there are many undercurrents, which are dangerous and not recommended. At present, diving in Dadonghai is done by private individuals. It is not clear who the coach is doing. Taxi drivers generally recommend you to dive here, and the price is extremely low, but there is basically nothing to see underwater.
Second, the price is not your consideration, because the price is unified in the whole province. As for what kind of commission people give to tour guides or drivers, it has nothing to do with your tourists. Because even if there is no guide driver to take you there, you are still at such a price. Why not win? Besides, you have to let people make some money, right? If you are a free man, you can talk to the taxi driver to make him earn less:)
In the future, the diving sites should be controlled and environmental protection measures should be taken, and the cost should only rise rather than fall.
Third, physical condition
Heart disease, high blood pressure, elderly people over 70 years old and pregnant women can't dive.
If you have spare money, you can play with motorboats, water skiing, parasailing and gliders.
5. Shopping
Something distinctive
A. Coconut carving ornaments and shell carving
B, Hainan Island clothes (very beautiful floral clothes, ranging from a set of more than ten yuan to a piece of hundreds of yuan)
C, coconut series of food, coffee, coconut powder
D tropical fruits (mango, mangosteen, pitaya, imperial coke, coconut, jackfruit, etc.)
E, packaged Wenchang chicken
F, Kuding tea, Wuzhishan green tea, Baisha green tea and Dongshanling partridge tea.
G, coconut island deer turtle wine, seahorse wine
H, seawater pearls, this is a high-end consumption, and good seawater pearls are very expensive.
J, cashew kernel, pepper
K, dried seafood: dried seafood, dried squid, shellfish, sea cucumber, dried shrimps, sea snakes and agar.
L, deer products, can buy deer beauty cosmetics and all kinds of nourishing deer products.
M, special wines such as Shanlan Jade Liquid, Lugui Liquor, Jinyue Liquor, Poma Liquor, Areca Wine and Sweet Potato Wine.
6. Must-visit scenic spots in Hainan
Boao, Nanshan, Tianya Haijiao, Yalong Bay, islands (Boundary Island, Wuzhizhou,; Jiajing Island, Dazhou Island, Xidao), betel nut garden, Li village, Miao village, big and small caves. Have time to visit the coconut grove in the eastern suburbs. Friends who like excitement can go to Wanquan River to play the river drop.
If you still have leisure time, go to play Wuzhishan rafting again:)
7. Good place for morning tea
Haikou:
Buffet morning tea
Qiongyuan Hotel, 15 yuan/person (other places are not clear, which friend knows, please make a supplement)
There are many places for Chinese morning tea.
Sanya morning tea:
There are morning teas on the second floor of Kirin Hotel and Wanghao Supermarket. (it will continue to make up)
8. Afternoon tea
Haikou: mainly dad tea:), love this life opposite Wanlv Garden (I will make up the rest after I understand it)
9. Travel with your heart and keep a good attitude.
Traveling is a happy thing. When you play with your heart, you will find that you experience more things than others. I have been to Yalong Bay for countless times, and the feeling of each visit is different. I believe this is also the reason why there are many repeat customers in Yalong Bay.
In the same scenic spot, everyone has different views and feelings, which is also related to factors such as everyone's experience and aesthetics.
In addition, the rumors are not necessarily true, and you will have the right to speak if you feel anything yourself. Be an independent tourist and a rational consumer, and you will have fun.
You must put your mind at ease when you travel.
There is a saying that it is good to stay at home for a thousand days, but it is difficult to go out for a day. Traveling is going out. When you go out, everything goes smoothly, and you can't say it well. Sometimes you choke when you drink water at home.
Traveling abroad is for fun. Do what you can with your money, and don't haggle too much. Of course, we should stick to the principle. To put it bluntly, tourism is to increase your knowledge, and you should see more beautiful things; Have fun and play more. If it's not beautiful or fun, consider it as a visit here.
Tourism is an activity that consumes a lot of physical strength. If you don't put your mind right, you just spend money to suffer, travel with tolerance and don't give yourself a hard time.
To borrow a sentence from "antaeuss": We must put a good attitude, which is also half a glass of water. Optimists will say: Ah, fortunately, there is half a glass of water; And pessimists will say: hey, there is only half a glass of water left!
How to evaluate everything objectively and measure the advantages and disadvantages depends on your own situation.
10, the taxi management in Haikou and qionghai city is good, but the taxi management in Sanya is poor. My suggestion is: tell the taxi master the specific destination, find the car driven by the local Hainanese and ask about the price.
1 1, travel mode
Traveling to Hainan, if you have better economic conditions, you can choose to be free or drive by car, but this kind of consumption is not affordable for everyone. If you make such a choice, you have to prepare more money. Make a good budget, otherwise, if you have a mental burden, you will be unhappy.
Although many friends on the Internet will talk about coming to Hainan for a self-help tour, for most domestic tourists, they will still choose to join the team. After all, the team is still the most economical. You can save a lot of money on air tickets, fares and hotel accommodation, which is enough for diving and eating seafood in Hainan. Of course, you can also ask the travel agency to book air tickets on your behalf.
At present, the types of teams are:
1, VIP pure play group, such groups have no shopping spots, and famous and large-scale scenic spots have arrangements.
2, quality tour team, there are only three shopping spots for such teams, and the most is four. It is a good thing for women to have a suitable shopping spot (at least I am such a person ~-~). The advantage of this type is that you can choose it when you want to shop and don't want the shopping spot to delay your visit. (Because there are not many shopping spots)
3. Economical teams, such teams have more shopping spots, and of course the travel expenses are also the lowest.
No matter what kind of team you join, you must sign a detailed contract with the travel company. You should sign the contract carefully before the gentleman. You can be confused when you play. After all, everything will not go well when you go out, so you will be happier.
What kind of travel mode do you need? You can choose according to your own purpose and economic ability.
Old people travel to join the team and try to join the sunset red group, so that it is not difficult to play, and everyone feels the same speed.
12, things that the elderly or self-help tourists need to bring.
First, commonly used drugs, according to their own needs!
Second, convenient shoes, preferably old ones that won't lick your feet!
Third, loose clothes, the temperature in Sanya is high, wearing a long-sleeved T-shirt and a coat outside (not too thick-winter). The temperature in Haikou is lower than that in Sanya, so you can add a vest inside! According to the usual habits of the elderly, some elderly people are very cold-resistant and some are heat-resistant, and can be added or subtracted at any time!
Fourth, it is best to bring a thermos bottle with you, and (sealed) prepare some boiled water or tea for the elderly. It is easy for the elderly to get angry when they go out, and it is good to drink more boiled water! Drink more water when going out. Young people can buy more coconut water in the scenic spot. Coconut water is cool.
5. Don't arrange the itinerary too tightly. If the arrangement of the team is tight, you can choose a few not to go or join the elderly tour group!
Sixth, safety, we must pay attention to the safety of the elderly, and pay attention to the elderly at any time when we are free to move, especially where there are many vehicles!
7. If you are an old man from the north, you should pay attention to adding clothes as soon as possible when you return to Chengdu. After you go home, it is best to take some medicine to prevent colds first. After all, the physique of older people is not very good! ! !
13, Hainan Hot Springs
Nantian Hot Springs in Sanya (with high water temperature and good environment), hot springs in Qixian Ridge are also good (relatively far away), and there is a fish therapy pool in the pastoral hot springs near Yanglan Town in Sanya. These three hot springs have not been developed for a long time, and the effect is very good. There are Lanyang Hot Springs in the west of Hainan. There are Xinglong hot springs in the east.
