玉带滩..long sandy beach locate east of BO'OA
玉带滩位于博鳌水城东部,是一条自然形成的地形狭长的沙滩半岛。南海烟波浩淼,一望无际,内侧万泉河,沙美内海的湖光山色,内外相映,构成了一幅奇异的景观。其他地形地貌酷似美国的迈阿密、墨西哥的坎昆、澳大利亚的黄金海岸,在亚洲可谓仅此独有
We need to take a boat ride to the sandy island....












BO'OA 
博鳌以水城著称。位于中国海南省琼海市万泉河入海口处。出海口中有东屿、鸳鸯两个岛屿,使博鳌港水中有岛,岛中有水,波光错落,景色秀丽。被人们誉为奇妙的南国风光画卷。
    以亚洲论坛为中心,博鳌亚洲论坛会址落户博鳌使博鳌一夜成名。东屿岛上亚洲论坛永久会址的建立也使博鳌成为目前中国境内唯一一个定期、定址、非官方的国际会议组织所在地。会址旁建有东屿岛温泉、博鳌高尔夫球会使东屿岛休闲、娱乐于一体。
    以文化为中心,博鳌东方文化苑的博鳌禅寺展现了佛教文化、苑内主题公园的莲花馆增添了荷莲文化、七宝莲池更是中日友好的充分体现。
    以博鳌港中心港域辽阔,地势险要,景点众多。东部有被世界吉尼斯纪录确认为世界上最长的沙洲半岛——“玉带滩”将南海与万泉河分开,外国专家将之称为世界上分割海河最完美的沙洲半岛和世界河流入海口自然环境保存得最完美的处女地。还有大乐万泉河大桥、圣公石等。

Sanya Nanshan Cultural Park 南山


Sanya Nanshan Buddhism CulturalTourism Zone is one of the largest cultural tourist attractions of its kind in China, it's located just 40 kilometres west of Sanya City along the Hainan West Expressway. There are three separate parks within Nanshan:
Nanshan Buddhism Culture Park is a window on China's traditional Buddhism culture;
The Felicty and Longevity Culture Park reflects an atmosphere of peace, harmony and long life;
The Nanshan Cultural Park highlights China's diverse social customs. The key feature of the zone is the three sided statue of Guan Yin Buddha, Buddhist Temples, spectacular landscape and sea views. The zone has been designated a Priority Project of China Tourism Development and earmarked for further development. Recently completed, the bronze statue of Guan Yin Buddha stands 108 metres tall on a man made island in the sea just off Nanshan. It's larger than the statue of liberty.
Nanshan has been deemed an auspicious and blessing land in Brahma. According to the record from Buddhism scriptures, the Guanyin Buddha vowed twelve oaths to save all living beings. To dwell at South Sea permanently is the second oath of the twelve, Master Jianzhen, the renowned monk in Tang Dynasty, tried in vain five times to sail eastward to Japan for prench of Buddha’s steaching. On his fifth sail to Japan, he was drifted to Nanshan. While staying in Nanshan for one year and a half, he set up a temple and did missionary work, and then, finally succeeded in his sixth voyage to Japan. The Japanese travel monk named Konghai also landed Nanshan on his way to learn Buddhism in Tang Dynasty. The well know saying “Good fortune as vast as East Sea, Long Life as great as Nanshan Mountain” shows further the Nanshan’s origin of relations between Chinese traditional culture of auspicious and longevity.
