This is "三亚 (San Ya)". I used to have very good memory of this place because of the beach, but it was disappointing this time. It used to be a very clear beach which you can see fishes swimming under the bridge, but now this place is sardined with people. It was known to be to be the end of the world back in the olden days of China. I will elaborate more on the end of the world portion later.
My feminine relative cluttering around a beads store, marvelling at the beads. 
This was a test of skill of taking a kite. 
Calamity on the beach. 
We decided to have a short fruity break by the beach as most of our tour group when for sea sports.
They have a outdoor massage area!?
Next we went to a crystal factory. This is my parents beside some crystals. 
Cute kid by a huge crystal ball.
"天涯 (Tian Ya)" Rock. Everyone is queue to take picture with this rock. Although there was an unofficial queue but still people cut queue.
"海角 (Hai Jiao)" rock. This rock was even more challenging. I had to climb another rock in other to take this picture.These rock was why this place is called "天涯海角 (Tian Ya Hai Jiao)". Both rocks are craved on different time of Chinese History. It was known that Hainan Island was a place for exiles in the past and there were two exiles of different times was wandering where is the end of the world, walked down south to this place and carved the words.
Some structures of "天涯海角 (Tian Ya Hai Jiao)".
Water photography always amazes me.
This is the Guan Yin Statue that was built for the sake of tourism and worship. It is 108m high.
