Hainan, a tropical island at the southernmost of China, has a land area of ​​35,400 square kilometers, a sea area of ​​about 2 million square kilometers, and a population of about 10 million. It is China's second largest island after Taiwan.

Hainan has a long history. According to archaeological findings, as early as 10,000 years ago, there were ancient humans - "Sanya Man" have been living here. In 214 BC, Emperor Qin Shihuang set up Xiang County in Hainan and relocated hundreds of thousands of people from the mainland.

Hainan enjoys a favorable geographical location, with Qiongzhou Strait facing Guangdong Province in the north, Beibu Gulf in the west opposite Vietnam, and the Philippines, Brunei and Malaysia in the southeast and south.
