Perched in Jiyang district, Sanya, the Linchunling Forest Park is a sprawling 2,800-mu (187-hectare) natural oasis. With its highest point reaching 195.6 meters above sea level, it boasts an unparalleled geographical location, offering some of the best panoramic views of Sanya's cityscape and coastline.

As Sanya's only open, non-profit forest park, it seamlessly combines ecological conservation, sightseeing, recreational activities, and mountain hiking. The park is covered in lush greenery and filled with fresh, clean air, offering residents and visitors a valued green space to reconnect with nature.

Since launching a thorough ecological improvement project in 2020, the park has been carefully divided into zones such as the Urban Forest Landscape Zone, Valley Flora Garden, and Rare Tree Display Zone. This setup helps protect and showcase its diverse wildlife. Today, it stands as an ecological sanctuary where rare plants flourish and wildlife, including playful troops of macaques (a protected species), thrives.

Visitors can explore a network of hiking trails and winding pathways, such as the Zhulutai and Half-Moon Over the Hill viewpoints, leading through dense canopies and to lookouts like the observation tower. Each turn offers a new perspective, from peaceful forest paths filled with birdsong to breathtaking vistas where mountains, sea, and city blend into a living painting.

A visit to Linchunling offers an immersive experience with nature. The air is filled with the scent of plants and high levels of negative oxygen ions, making it the perfect urban retreat for hiking, deep breathing, and rejuvenation. Come and explore the lively ecological core of Sanya.
