Shimenshan Forest Park

#chinatravel We visited Shimenshan Forest Park on a quiet, overcast morning, and the sense of stillness was immediate. Tucked into the forested slopes near Wuzhishan City, the park felt untouched and deeply rooted in the land. We followed narrow walking trails through dense tropical foliage, where the soft rustle of leaves and the calls of unseen birds created a natural rhythm. The forest was alive but peaceful, and the mist hanging between the trees added a dreamlike quality to the experience. The air smelled clean and earthy, and with every step, it felt like we were retreating further from the distractions of everyday life. What we appreciated most was how the park prioritised quiet preservation over tourism. There were no crowds, no loud signage, and no unnecessary structures just the natural forest and simple wooden paths guiding us forward. Along the way, we paused at a lookout where the peaks of Wuzhi Mountain loomed in the distance, softened by fog. The park didn’t try to impress; it simply let the forest speak for itself. If you’re looking for a place to slow down, reconnect with nature, and reflect, Shimenshan Forest Park offers an experience that feels genuine, grounded, and entirely unforced. #china #travel

Yanoda Tropical Rainforest

Chinese Hawaii, yay or nay? 🌴 🌴 Hainan Island is known as Chinese Hawaii for its tropical climate and warm sea. And it is one of the top destinations for sea lovers all around in China. ❤️Attractions: Yanoda Rainforest Park and Pirates' Island are totally worth visiting. Monkey Island won't recommend due to aggressive animals. 🌊There r 2 bays, that r most popular among the tourists: Dadong Hai & Yalong Bay. Dadong Hai is VERY popular among Russian tourists due to pricing and location, so everything there is Russian oriented: food, music, service, hotels, everything. The coast line is nice, there is a variety of small cafes, offering Chinese snacks and questionable Russian food. 🏖️ The beach is quite crowded, there are many people streaming right from the beach, so if you love the camera, go for it and you might get famous 🤩 🌊 The sea is clean and the sand is nice and soft. No big waves. 🛍️ Shopping is convenient here, there is a huge mall called Pineapple for its shape, where you can shop and dine worry-free. 🎠 Leasure: there are billions of small SPA-places offering massages and body treatment for a reasonable price. 🍽️ Food: remember that the majority local restaurants stop serving food after the dining hours. Yalong Bay is more expensive, offering tourists 5* hotels with clean nice beaches and good infrastructure, hence the service is still have a room for improvement. 🏖️ Beaches here r mostly owened by hotels, they r clean & neat. The sea is nice & calm. No big waves. 🛍️ If you want to buy something, prepare to travel by taxi, all the malls and shopping arears r quite far. But on a bright side, nobody is trying to sell you bead necklaces on the beach. 🎠 Leasure & food: Yatai Commerand Area is in a wakable distance from many hotels, offers some local & western food + a little amusement park for kids. 💙 All in all, Hainan could be a great sea vacation option for sea lovers 💙 #lightthecity #hainan #sanya #sea #china #travelinspiration #seasidephotoguide#bestislandtraveltowns#lightthecity#urbanexplorer
