Sanya - Sanya is a tropical mix of quiet beachside relaxation and urban excitement, both during the daytime and the nighttime. The beaches are populated with a number of both tourists and locals, but large and offering a vast amount of space, visitors to the area should have no trouble finding a quiet and relaxing spot to spend a day. The waters are remarkably clear and otherwise turquoise, making the island a popular place for snorkeling and scuba diving.
For having a look around the tropical area, visitors to Sanya should have no problem getting around on foot or one of the many quick-paced beach taxis. There are a number of little restaurants and vast arrays of colorful shops catering to tourists and locals alike. For exploring some of the more out of reach areas and monuments, visitors can easily navigate the areas by taxi, especially by some of the taxi-services organized by the local Sanya hotel or guesthouse. A little outside of Sanya is the Statue of Guanyin, the fourth tallest statue in the world. The statue depicts Guan Yin holding prayer beads and a lotus flower and is visited by thousands every year.
The nightlife offers as much variety as the network of hotels and guesthouses in Sanya. There are a great deal of little nightclubs that come alive when the sun goes down, visitors can enjoy the array of hotspots, or, for something a little more intimate, one of the more low-key, high-end restaurants where visitors can spend a romantic evening unwinding by candlelight. Sanya is a clever retreat from Hong Kong, providing easy access to and from the beaches and a blissful rest from the busy streets of the city. Best of all, most of the Sanya hotels and restaurants, in comparison to Hong Kong, are relatively cheap.
