Yalong Bay Tropical Paradise Forest Park is located in the resort area of ​​Yalongwan, near the city of Sanya in Hainan Province. This unique tropical park, which covers an area of ​​15 square kilometers, is not only the first forest park in the Sanya area developed in accordance with the technical requirements of the National Forest Parks of China, but also the first forest park for coastal mountain eco-tourism.
Hainan Province is China's first ecological province and Tropical Paradise Park near Sanya is the closest natural oxygen bar. This park is an ideal place for mountaineering, recreation and excursions.
There are two types of vegetation in the tropical park: tropical evergreen forests and tropical semi-deciduous forests. The biodiversity of the park is amazing, with more than 100 species of trees and more than 1,500 species of plants to be seen. In addition, the park is home to over 30 mammals, over 60 species of amphibians and reptiles, and over 100 species of birds.

How to get to the tropical park from Sanya

You can get to the park by taxi. The cost of a trip from Sanya city can be approximately 100 yuan one way, and the trip duration is unlikely to be more than 30 minutes.
The park is open from 07:30 to 17:30.

It makes sense to buy an excursion to the Tropical Paradise park, since the cost of the trip in this case can be profitable (if you do not buy from tour operators), and you will be accompanied by a Russian-speaking guide.

Yalong Bay Rainforest located on a hill, not far from Yalong Bay. From one interesting site to another you travel on a small open bus. Moreover, the road is a serpentine road, going up and down. The speed of travel, the driving style of local drivers, sharp turns with steep cliffs on the sides, as well as oncoming buses from nowhere will not leave you indifferent and will make the trip very memorable.

Get ready for the unexpected: people from a bus that suddenly jumps out to meet you will try to scare you with a loud choral scream. If you have the desire and strength, you can answer them in kind.

First stop - Orchid Alley.

The path leads into the depths of the tropical forest, makes a loop along it and again comes out onto the road. Along the way, you can throw a coin for luck into the pond of an ancient turtle, admire orchids, learn a lot of interesting things about the life of ostriches, and even ride one of them (for a fee, of course). You can’t do without numerous souvenirs, fruit stalls and traditional food.

Second phase- a hanging bridge over a cliff.

Everyone gets in line and goes out onto the bridge one after another. It is best to hold on to the handrails with both hands, as if there are a lot of people, the bridge will sway a lot. You go out into the middle, stop and survey the surrounding beauties: in the distance the turquoise sea of ​​Yalong Bay, nearby on the hills there are small houses of an elite hotel, and under your feet there are green trees, flowers and... hats, of all colors and styles. Here, in the open space, a strong wind blows, trying to leave you without a headdress. Along the stone steps, through vines and bushes, you rise even higher. Along the way there are several observation platforms where you can rest and plan your further route.

You can have a snack before your walk...

The journey through the tropical forest ends at the very top of the hill. Original buildings, platforms connected by bridges, small fountains surround the central gazebo. Having climbed to its upper tier, you find that you rise above the rest of the landscape. At the foot of the gazebo against the backdrop of the sea stands dragon statue- the symbol of Yalong Bay. After enjoying the beautiful scenery, everyone, already pretty tired but happy, gets back on the bus, which takes you to the exit with the breeze.
