You can enjoy seeing a host of exotic plants you will not see at typical gardens.

The garden's rest, reception, and sampling area even provides a special Xinglong coffee developed at the garden, as well as many famous teas.

Even in winter, you can enjoy the lush scenery here

Waking up overnight, the world is all the same color, the only thing you can see is a silver-wrapped, snowflakes seem to take us to an elegant and tranquil world. I like winter, not because of the beauty brought by the fleeting snowflakes, because any beauty is not necessarily eternal; I like winter, because I know, only when winter comes, the footsteps of spring are close to us, so only by sticking to the cold, can you see the spring flowers blooming. The slight regret is that the cities in the north cannot see the flowers and trees in this season, so there is occasionally a desire to pursue the grass and the birds, to be able to walk in the shadow of the trees, breathing the air full of flowers, is not a kind of beauty? If you feel the same, come here in winter, you can always enjoy the lush scenery, even the air is surprisingly good, where is this? Perhaps, Xinglong Tropical Botanical Garden can give you the best answer. The scenic spot is located in the south of Xinglong Town, Wanning City, Hainan Province. It was established in 1957. It has a deep historical background, unique natural scenery, beautiful scenery, rich tropical plant species, evergreen in all seasons, and lush vegetation. It is like a green sea. Walking in it, it seems to be wrapped in green plants, full of greenery. The scenery seen here is very different from that of the northern cities. Here, the birds and flowers, the ancient trees towering, the trees shaded, the leisurely fruit fragrance permeates the entire air, swaying in the vast forest, making people feel relaxed and happy. Entering Xinglong Tropical Botanical Garden is like opening an encyclopedia. There are countless strange flowers and trees. Many tree species that are not seen in general botanical gardens are almost available here. Even the economic crops of fruit species, such as durian and mangosteen, are everywhere. You can even easily find the precious cocoa tree, which is the mother of chocolate, and the rare iron watermelon species. Must-visit attractions: The Encyclopedia of Tropical Plants is the highlight here. Wandering in it, you can see many rare plant species, identify various strange cocoa beans and coffee beans, visit and try to roast coffee by hand, experience the process from grinding to boiling, taste the authentic Xinglong coffee, be quiet and peaceful, enjoy the scenery of nature, indulge in every grass and tree, and be quiet and far-reaching. According to personal understanding, Xinglong Tropical Botanical Garden has more than 1,200 plant species, including many endangered tropical plants and rare plants. It is a comprehensive tropical botanical garden. Here, you can not only enjoy the beautiful scenery of the tropical rainforest, but also learn a lot of popular science knowledge, which is educational and entertaining, and worth visiting. Travel strategy: After tourists enter the park, I personally recommend taking a sightseeing tour bus, because each tour bus is equipped with a guide, you can listen to related knowledge points and popularize plants throughout the journey. After the sightseeing route is over, it is recommended to choose to ride the electric bicycle provided by the scenic spot and shuttle in other scenic spots in the park. Transportation strategy: Non-self-driving tourists can take the Wanning tourist car and get off at Xinglong Botanical Garden Station, or take Xinglong No. 6 bus and get off at Qiaoxiang Square Station. If you get on the bus from Wanning Railway Station, you need to transfer to Wanning Tourism Three to arrive. Self-driving tourists directly navigate to the parking lot of Xinglong Tropical Botanical Garden, and the parking fee for small cars is five yuan each time. Ticket policy: 50 yuan per person in peak season, 42 yuan per person in off-season, 20 yuan per person for electric cars, in addition, children and the elderly have free policies, specific to the disclosure of the scenic spot on the day. Personal opinion: Although Xinglong Tropical Botanical Garden is just a niche attraction locally, it covers a large area, has typical tropical style and characteristics, rich plant species, beautiful environment, and can learn a lot of tree species, origin and use after playing, which has a lot of popular science education significance, and it is worth a visit for northern tourists.
