Trek through the primeval jungle, drift down the rapids canyon, hear a "Bolong" greeting, and become a mountain wilderness traveler

【3 days 2 nights, about 4800 RMB per person! Wuzhishan Guide: The Lung of Hainan, a Rainforest Secret】 Day 1: Take the high-speed train to Tongshi Station (Haikou → Wuzhishan 1.5h/87 RMB, Sanya → 1h/65 RMB), then taxi into town to check in at a tropical rainforest boutique guesthouse or forest hotel (such as Yujing Mountain, Weibo Hostel, 600 RMB/night × 2 = 1200 RMB). In the afternoon, stroll around San Yue San Square, visit the local market, and try Li ethnic specialty dishes: five-foot pig, lingzhi chicken, and Shanlan wine. Dinner recommendation: “Hemu Renjia” restaurant. Day 2: Full day exploring Wuzhishan Tropical Rainforest National Park (entrance + electric cart 95 RMB), hike the main peak plank road, cross the valley rainforest, and check in at China’s southernmost rafting spot — Hongxia Valley Rafting (198 RMB/person, thrilling and exciting). Along the way, observe the cyatheas, listen to gibbons and birds, and experience the “natural oxygen bar.” Return in the evening for a soak in a Li herbal hot spring to relax your fatigue. Day 3: In the morning, visit Chubao Village or Yahu Terraces (free), step into traditional Li boat-shaped houses, and learn about intangible cultural heritage weaving crafts. You can also try handcraft Li pottery or bamboo weaving (50-80 RMB). Check out before 12:00 and take the high-speed train back. 💰Budget breakdown: Transportation (round-trip train + local taxis) 600 + Accommodation 1200 + Food 600 + Attractions + rafting 350 + Experiences + miscellaneous 1250 ≈ **4800 RMB** 📌Tips: - The rainforest is slippery, wear non-slip shoes and bring mosquito repellent; - Change of clothes needed for rafting, bring dry clothes; - Li cultural experiences are recommended to be booked in advance. ⚠️Warnings: ❌ Don’t trust “wild guides” offering cheap tours at the scenic spot entrance; ❌ Be cautious buying mountain herbs and medicines, as their effects are often exaggerated. Two days and two nights, deep into the heart of Hainan. Wuzhishan is not a beach resort but the breathing center of the tropical rainforest and a living museum of Li and Miao cultures. Come here to trek the primeval jungle, drift down the rapids canyon, hear a "Bolong" (hello), and become a mountain wilderness traveler. Escape the noise and meet the most original Hainan.
