Things to note when traveling to Sanya

Things to note when traveling to Sanya are as follows:

1. The ultraviolet radiation in Hainan Island is very strong. Tourists should wear sunglasses, high-index sunscreen and parasols; be careful to choose some breathable ones. Wear appropriate clothes and drink plenty of water and moderate amounts of soda containing salt.

2. When buying things, including very cheap fruits, you have to bargain, but you can get 50 to 40% off, and ask the vendor to use a more accurate scale under the stall to weigh.

3. When you arrive at your hotel, after entering the guest room, you must first take inventory of the room facilities, clothes drying racks, towels, ashtrays, etc., to avoid being charged for incomplete items when you check out.

4. Don’t let strangers into the room. When you hear the knock on the door, you can see the visitor’s face clearly through the “cat’s eye”.

5. Do not call girls "Miss" in Hainan, especially in entertainment venues. "Miss" locally refers to "escort girls". Tourists should call waiters and salespersons "little sister" , if you are an older woman, you can also call her "aunt".

Sanya Shopping Tips:

1. There is a shell museum in Yalong Bay Plaza, with many kinds of shells, but the prices are relatively expensive. There are many places in the world, and the handicrafts sold at fixed stalls are about half cheaper than those in Yalong Bay.

2. There are many hawkers in every corner of the world. If you have no intention of purchasing, it is best to refuse it firmly at the beginning and then ignore it. But if you like something, be sure to bargain. You can start with one-tenth of the vendor's asking price, but the transaction price must not exceed one-quarter of their asking price.

3. Be careful to guard against fakes when it comes to pearl and crystal handicrafts. If you want to bargain carefully for crystal jewelry, you can get at least 40% off.

4. Do not buy souvenirs made of corals and whole tortoise shells. They are prohibited from being sold by the state, so they cannot be brought on board the plane.

5. There are many colorful island clothes in Sanya. It is best not to buy island clothes online at tourist attractions. The ones in hotels and shopping malls are also more expensive.
