Permanent Venue of the Bo’ao Forum for Asia

4.3/5 · 1,986 review
taCommentInfo-imageBased on 30 review
Highlights:

The permanent site of the Boao Forum for Asia covers Dongyu Island in Qionghai City, Hainan Province. It is very popular and not to be missed are the magnificent conference center, the Qiyun Terrace and Dragon Neck Cave with magical echo effects, and Yudai Beach, a unique scenic spot where three rivers meet the sea.

The ticket office of the scenic spot is outside the island. After buying the ticket, you can take the scenic spot's battery car to the island via Peilan Bridge. The entire Dongyu Island looks like a turtle, and turtle elements can be seen everywhere in the scenic spot. The Boao Forum for Asia has long become a platform for governments, enterprises, experts and scholars from Asia and other continents to discuss economic, social and environmental issues.

The Qiyuntai and Longjing Cave in the scenic area is one of the landmark attractions of the scenic area. Standing on the small yellow dot in the center, you can hear your own endless echo, which is very strange.

After visiting the conference hall, you can take a boat to Yudai Beach, which is included in the ticket package for the Boao Forum for Asia Permanent Site. Yudai Beach is a natural beach peninsula where the sea and the river meet, with the turbulent South China Sea on one side and the calm Three Rivers (Wanquan River, Longgun River and Jiulong River) on the other side, and the scenery is very unique.

4.6/5 · 1,017 review
Highlights:
Baishi Ridge has many strange peaks and rocks. Even though the mountains are not high, the scenery is appealing. Walk up the stone steps or take the cableway up the mountain. There is diverse scenery along the route, and the Yuquan River at the foot of the mountain looks like a jade belt. The mountains are close to the water, and the water is around the mountains, creating an intoxicating experience. You can ascend to the mountain and get an entire panoramic view of Qionghai. Several villages are scattered in the distance, creating a very pleasant vista.
