Welcome to Sanya City
The Remotest Cape of the Earth
Sanya is a famous coastal tourist city situated in the southernmost part
of Hainan Island, China - and so she is called "The remotest cape of the
Earth". It is filled with tropical scenery and local culture. Sanya is
an important political, economic, and cultural trade port. So, it is fitting
that Sanya hosts the UN ESCAP/CDPF Regional Workshop on Promotion of
Barrier-free Tourism.
