This is only part 2 of my 5-Day Hainan tour. I was supposed to go on a second tour last week and return yesterday, but it was cancelled due to low demand. Imagine I’ve not completed this tour that happened back in February, and now on the second tour haha…
After we got into the bus, we were not going to the airport directly. We went to have lunch and had the giant Jian Dui aka as Zhen Dai 珍袋 in Hainan, which is a Hainan speciality cuisine.
It’s our first time seeing and eating this. Had fun hammering it and tearing it. In Hainan, this large, golden, hollow, and fried ball is often given as gifts. It symbolizes prosperity, luck, and reunion. It is a staple during festive celebrations.
After lunch, we went to the Qilou Old Street. It was recognised as “Famous Historical and Cultural Streets in China” in 2009. This is definitely a must-visit tourist attraction when you’re in Haikou. It’s very crowded! What we experienced was still not the worst yet.
Next, we went to Rong Shan Liao Village Tourist Centre 荣山寨游客中心 for a quick visit and toilet break before continuing the journey. It didn’t interest us. The main aim was to use the toilet before a longer journey to get dinner and check-in to the hotel.
Part 3 coming… Stay tuned. Otherwise, just go to my Instagram account for it hehehe…
