A night market in Yalong Bay has simply been buzzing with activity recently — with stalls offering utterly delish barbecue seafood, divine Qingbuliang dessert and fresh tropical fruit drawing in the crowds.

The throng includes foreign tourists who are eager to taste the local flavors and soak up the lively nightlife of Sanya, the ever-popular coastal resort city in China's southernmost Hainan province.

Thanks to Hainan's visa-free entry policy and the continuous improvement of international amenities, Sanya is fast becoming a hot spot for foreign visitors looking for sightseeing, relaxation and extended stays.
