[2025 Danzhou Attraction] Travel Guide for Dongpo Academy (Updated May)

Dongpo Academy This is where Su Dongpo gave lectures after he was demoted to Hainan. That is, a juren was born here in the second year, and a jinshi was born here in the ninth year, ending the history of Hainan without a jinshi. 💰Ticket cost: Off-season tickets are 21 yuan (May 1st-September 30th), peak season tickets are 25 yuan (October 1st-April 30th), and app reservations are 20 yuan. ⛰Attraction guide: The scenic area is divided into a free park area and a paid academy area. There is no ticket check at the gate, and tickets are only checked when entering the innermost academy. The park revolves around a lake of lotus flowers, which are in full bloom in May. There is a cruise ship pier, but it was not open when we went. Walking past the Dongpo Bridge, on the left is the Quanxue Garden. The golden thatched roof and the surrounding green coconut trees are still very good as a photo background, but the sun was too strong when we went there. Further ahead is the entrance to the academy, which has a wine-carrying pavilion and wine-carrying hall and a bronze statue of Dongpo. I walked around the free park area. It was so hot. I took a lot of photos and finished my work. 📝Note tips: Because the weather is too hot, try to visit in the morning or evening. #besttrip#summerdays

[Shihua Water Cave] + [Dongpo Academy] are must-sees when you come to Danzhou! Especially in this season, the kapok flowers are blooming and the whole sky is red🔴 It's so beautiful 【Shihua Water Cave】 Ticket price: 78 (If you don’t want the cultural and creative ice cream, you can go to xy and buy it for 60) Pictures: Figure 1-Figure 10 Tour duration: about 3 hours Detailed guide 🖋 1️⃣Route: Go straight to the right after entering the gate. You can see the Li ethnic group's characteristic embroidery and clothing along the way. Enter the Shihua Water Cave. The first section of the Shihua Water Cave is a walk. You need to wear a helmet before entering to prevent your head from being hit (but I think it’s okay if you’re not too short. If you feel hot, you can just hold it in your hand without wearing it). Check in at the Buddha statue + various stalactites and Shihua The second section requires a boat ride (wear life jackets 🦺) and the boat will depart when there are 12 people. This section is also the essence of Shihua Water Cave. Remember to hold your phone at all times! You can see the mirror flowers and water moon/time tunnel/Buddha's light (need good weather) After the boat ride, there are various small animals and plants that you can check in and take photos of. 2️⃣ Notes 『1』There are bats in Shihua Water Cave, and they are very smelly, but you can rest assured that they will not hurt anyone. 『2』 Remember to hold your phone tightly when you are on a boat. If it falls into the water, there is nothing you can do (water depth is 8-12 meters) 『3』The petals of the Kapok tree are very heavy and may fall at any time during the blooming season. Be careful to avoid them. It will really hurt if they hit your head. 『4』Inconvenient transportation.

You can either take a boat or walk to the right along the promenade and cross the bridge to the main scenic spot. This scenic spot is divided into daytime and nighttime. The nighttime has immersive performances. 128 tickets are available. You can interact in real time. There are also awards and certificates to be won. It is quite interesting to experience Su Shi's personality charm in person. Friends who have time can come and try it. The most photogenic place is the lantern poem in Figure 15, which is on the left side of the main entrance of the scenic area. 2️⃣ Notes 『1』Don't read some guides that say you can sneak in for free. Not to mention being civilized, the road mentioned on the Internet is blocked by barbed wire and is guarded by someone. 『2』 Be sure to go to the Sharing Experience Hall and smell Su Shi’s “Spring Letter in the Snow”. If you like it, you can buy some 『3』Taking a boat costs 10 yuan one way and 15 yuan round trip. It is really cheap, but it is a human-powered boat that you pedal yourself. 『4』The internet-famous Dongpo sculpture is right in front of the cruise ship pier in Figure 12

Dongpo Academy was built in the fifth year of Shaosheng in the Northern Song Dynasty (1098). The academy is located in the northeast and faces the southwest. The buildings in the courtyard are arranged on three axes. The main buildings are arranged on the central axis, which are the first gate, the wine pavilion, the wine hall, the main hall, the east and west verandahs, and the eastern axis of the Breqin Marshal. Exhibition halls are arranged along the hall and west axis; walls are built around the academy, and protective signs are erected in front of the first gate. Dongpo Academy is not only a classroom for carrying forward the excellent cultural heritage of ancient times and conducting patriotic education, but also a base for scientific research. On October 21, 1996, Dongpo Academy was announced by the State Council as the fourth batch of national key cultural relics protection units.

I am originally from Danzhou, living temporarily in the western Sichuan province... Knowing I will not see you again, I wish to stay a little longer. This is Su Dongpo's heartfelt farewell to the people of Danzhou before his release and return to the north in his later years. The despair he felt when he first arrived in Hainan, thinking 'first to make a coffin, then a grave, and finally leaving a letter to my children,' was eventually replaced by his open-minded optimism. He established schools, reformed customs, promoted agriculture, and advised the Li and Han people... While bringing transformative changes to Danzhou, Dongpo did not forget to enjoy the leisurely life of cooking delicious food and writing articles. Thus, modern people have the opportunity to taste the deliciousness of charcoal-grilled oysters and hear the generous joke, 'I often caution my children to be careful not to speak of this, fearing that gentlemen from the north might hear and vie to do as Dongpo did, seeking exile in Hainan to share in this beauty!' —A generation's loyal and righteous Chibi legacy, the bright moon travels across the sky, overshadowing the Northern Song —The eternal virtue of the saintly, the betel nut leaves traces, the spring breeze transforms the rain, benefiting the southern wilderness The later generations of Danzhou have used this couplet to highly condense and evaluate Su Dongpo's life, and particularly highlight his significant importance to Danzhou and its people. As a fan of Dongpo, after visiting Huizhou, I made a special trip to Danzhou, feeling as joyous in my heart as the 'puppy flowers' unique to the Dongpo Academy in Danzhou ☺️☺️☺️

This place is not a bustling tourist area, there are no throngs of visitors, nor are there many noisy vehicles. However, when I set foot on this land, I felt as if I truly touched the soul of Hainan. Walking on the country lanes, I deeply felt an intimate connection with this land.🚶‍♀️🌾 This is a peaceful heaven and earth, so quiet that one can hear every subtle sound—the gentle hum of electric scooters, the clamor of the market, the laughter of children... The buildings here are low and compact, houses closely connected one after another, alleys narrow and winding, roads one after another, only accommodating pedestrians and electric scooters weaving through.🏠🛵 The reason I came to this ancient town is because of the Dongpo Academy here. I walked all the way from Baimajing, passing through many villages, seeing only farmers tilling the land and old people herding cattle, occasionally a villager whizzing by on an electric scooter, leaving behind a fleeting figure.📚🐂 After visiting Dongpo Academy, I strolled through the streets of the adjacent ancient town, not for anything else, but just to catch a glimpse of the daily life of the people here. The children in the ancient town are particularly lively; they shuttle and play in the alleys, running from one end to the other, filled with innocence and joy.👦‍👧🎉 The market is bustling and extraordinarily lively. There is a wide variety of fruits here, including coconuts, mangoes, bananas, pineapples, jackfruits, durians, and more. Although the fruits are no different from those in the north and south of our great country, the fruits here are exceptionally delicious and affordably priced.🍉🍌🍍 On this peaceful land full of life, I felt the unique charm of Hainan and gained an unforgettable travel memory.🌟🎈

What prompted this trip to Hainan was a few drinks during the National Day family dinner! As per the original plan, the three sisters arrived at Zhongda Garden one after another before 9 am on November 3rd, dilly-dallying until the brother-in-law came back, and finally set off at 9:20 am. Along the way, there were laughs and cheers, and two hours later, we arrived at the Shengtang Service Area. The service area had a nice environment, and everyone agreed to simply have lunch there, 93 yuan for three clay pot rice dishes, which five people couldn't finish, truly a conscientious lunch! After resting for about an hour, we continued our journey around 12:30 pm. The trip was smooth, and by 4 pm we were approaching Xuwen Port. Plans always change faster than expected, and with a command from the boss, we decided to go directly to Haikou, skipping the original plan to spend a night in Xuwen to visit the mainland's Antarctic Village and the Coral Nature Reserve. Fortunately, we were prepared, and with the experience of the Huizhou self-driving tour during the summer vacation, we didn't book a room in advance (otherwise, most of the current bookings on Ctrip do not accept refunds, and I don't have that much money to compensate!). So, we filled up the tank before crossing the sea and headed straight for Xuwen Port. Although we arrived at the ticket office at 16:35, due to the number of cars crossing, we could only get on the 19:00 ferry. While waiting to board, we booked a homestay near the port in Haikou. The 19:00 ferry was delayed a bit before setting sail, and we followed the crowd into the passenger cabin, quite worried that the big brother who drove alone to the car ferry might get lost. Finally, we reunited, settled down, and then took turns to have dinner on our own, eating instant noodles or a more luxurious self-heating meal. It was almost 21:00, and we followed the crowded flow of people off the ferry. While waiting for the big brother to drive out, we witnessed the orderly departure of large and extra-long vehicles from the ferry. At 22:10, we finally arrived at the booked homestay, Country Garden on Haidian Island in Meilan District, Haikou. The three-bedroom apartment cost 321 yuan, which was a good deal, and the house was quite exquisite. The five of us allocated the rooms, lined up for showers, and went to bed. November 4th, in the spirit of waking up naturally, the brother-in-law would certainly not get up early to hit the road. The three sisters all got up relatively early and went for a walk in the community. The community was not large, but the environment was elegant, and the greenery had the characteristics of Hainan. We took a walk, took some photos, basked in the sun, and began to enjoy the sunshine of Hainan. At 8:00 am, we finally received the signal to depart, packed our luggage, and set off for Hainan's morning tea. A teahouse located above the market, Meilan Jufu Dad's Tea Shop, we bought a group meal and ordered a few dim sums (the specialty was coconut jelly), and 148 yuan was enough to satisfy the five of us. Since the departure, we had been discussing the rumors of Hainan's tourist traps, and this price was indeed a bit of a surprise. After morning tea, we went to the arcade old street in Longhua District, Haikou. The arcade old street is a well-preserved historical district, famous for its unique architectural style and strong Nanyang atmosphere. Here, we admired various exquisite residential buildings, and we didn't buy a single coconut, but we did buy a 10 yuan turquoise and a 13 yuan golden turquoise. Five people drinking two coconuts, I wonder if the more we drink, the more we'll have, it's funny to think about! The Haikou Bell Tower is one of the most important symbolic and emblematic buildings in Haikou and a symbol of Haikou's culture. Located at No. 20 Changdi Road, Longhua District, Haikou City, Hainan Province, on the banks of Haidian Creek, it's not far from the arcade old street, just across a road. Because it was quite sunny, we just looked at it from the opposite side and didn't go over to pay our respects.

Hainan Danzhou has a bit of literary atmosphere because the first literati Su Dongpo was exiled here in his later years. When you come to Danzhou, of course, you have to pay homage to the place where Dongpo lived and worked.

Later generations named the places where he gave lectures and his friends lived.

This place tells the story of Su Dongpo's life. The great talent Su Dongpo was known throughout the world for his literary achievements, and he did many good deeds as an official. He reached the highest position of Minister, but thereafter, his career was not smooth. Demoted again and again, sent farther and farther away, to increasingly lesser positions. From Huangzhou to Huizhou, then to Danzhou. He mocked his life's work as being the achievements of Huangzhou, Huizhou, and Danzhou. These places he wandered eventually all became tourist attractions. ❤ Brief introduction of the academy: Dongpo Academy, also known as 'Dongpo Ancestral Hall' or 'Shushan Academy', is located in Shushan Village, Dingshu Town, Yixing City. It is now Dongpo Primary School. Founded in the Northern Song Dynasty, it has a history of more than 850 years. The master of purple clay teapots, Gu Jingzhou, graduated from here! Su Dongpo visited Yixing four times to enjoy the famous mountains and rivers. The beautiful scenery of the Yangxian streams and the simple and honest local customs made him leave the verse 'I will grow old buying fields in Yangxian, for I came initially for the love of its streams and mountains. A boat in vain goes to and fro, I take a leisurely tour of creation.' 🖼 Architectural style: Garden-style architecture.

Dongpo Academy is located at No. 30 Central Avenue in Danzhou City. Originally named Zaijiutang, it was built in 1098 AD. It was built as a lecture hall by the local scholar Li Ziyun in July 1097 AD (the fourth year of Shaosheng in the Northern Song Dynasty) to facilitate Dongpo's teaching and social gatherings after he was demoted from Huizhou to Danzhou. Su Dongpo named it Zaijiutang, which means 'carrying wine and food, accompanying scholars in their studies'. In 1548 AD (the 27th year of Jiajing in the Ming Dynasty), it was renamed Dongpo Academy. The Dongpo Academy has a serene environment with lush trees and numerous ancient relics. The ancient well water from the Ming Dynasty is always clear. The Zaijiutang, Aotang niche, and other buildings are quaint and elegant, reflecting the open-mindedness and magnanimity of Mr. Dongpo, who believed 'wherever my heart feels at peace, that is my home', as well as his noble character of 'letting a straw raincoat and the rain be all I need in life'. Su Dongpo was exiled in Danzhou for three years, during which he reformed local customs and educated the people, making an indelible contribution to the enlightenment and development of Hainan's culture, which has been extolled for generations.
