Wuzhizhou Coral Island, the Lover’s Island of Sanya, Hainan

Jagged rocks soar loftily into the sky and fall vertically across the sea. Stormy sea beats the shore and provides a splendid sight. Winding center wood and undulated grassland appears like a dancing girl in green. Calm and tranquil beach lies in the north and contains pure white and fine sands as if a jade from God.

Large variety of plants

Local vegetations include tall and lofty arbors and flourishing and low shrubs, both of which you may encounter anywhere. You may experience some exotic flowers and trees, one of the dominant foods for those dinosaurs in ancient times, and dracaena draco, the oldest plant remained so far around the world and thus titled as "the king of longevity under the sun" and also botanic landscapes created by some parasitical plants and strangling plants prevailing in tropic zone.

What to see

The Island is known locally as an example of all that was perfect about Hainan Island – white beaches, sunshine, various tropical plants and varied sea life. The main attractions include Goddess Mazu Temple, Lover’s Bridge, Sunrise Rock, and Gold Turtle Stretching forward to the Sea, Lover’s Island and "Life Well."

The hospice has been gradually ruined due to poor maintenance after Qing Dynasty. Local fishermen had no idea of which deity was this hospice for, so they pulled down the original joss and began to consecrate Goddess Mazu, the patron saint for navigation industry in their belief. At last Goddess Mazu Temple was also ruined and existing temple was the result of reconstruction in 1993 when local developers commenced large maintaining campaigns within the Island.

The previous iron chain bridge has been renovated as present wood board bridge by us for the safety of guests. Have a girl friend? Then it would be an opportunity here to walk through the "Lover Bridge" grasping your girl friend’s hands.

At the foot of Sunrise Rock there are jagged rocks in grotesque shapes. Upon calm seas and gentle breezes, you may only witness the majestic stones in all its variety; while upon stormy sea and terrifying waves, you may experience our great nature’s magnificent scenery of shaking heaven and earth. Sunrise Rock is the most optimal site to observe sunrise. When the red sun initially gushes at the easternmost skyline, boundless sunglow would trigger all your joyfulness and at the same time those overwhelming billows would comfort all those frustrated hearts.

– Gold Turtle Stretching forward to the Sea

In the southeastern area of Wuzhizhou Island and exactly under the Sunrise Rock, there is a natural giant stone in the shape of a huge turtle whose head and shell are vivid and visible.

The most fantastic thing about the turtle is that a long strip rock above the sea level seats itself at the left front of the whole rocks and thus when submerged by sea water, it looks like that the turtle is thrashing water with its paws. The image is so dynamic and vivid that it looks like a giant turtle edging down upon the vast ocean and returning to its motherland. Then the sight spot got its meaningful name as "Gold Turtle Stretching forward to the Sea."

– Lover Island

Lover Island consists of two giant stones that have witnessed thousand years of ebb and flow and now still stands there calmly face to face as if a couple in love. It is said that it was nominated in the name of a pair of deeply loved young couple who were turned into stones by irritated Dragon King. Now Lover Island has became one of the most attractive sights in Wuzhizhou Island and the best favored site for those lovers to whisper to each other and appreciate the rote of surf.
