Magnificent Guanyin Goddess of Nanshan! 🇨🇳
The enormous statue of Guanyin Goddess of Nanshan is one of the tallest in the world located in Sanya, Hainan Province. It is a famous attraction in China that you must visit especially if you beleive in Buddhism. The thousands of mini golden statues inisde the temple are one of a kind.
Cameras aren't allowed once you enter the temple so I couldn't show you how emmaculate the statues are inside. Very clean and well maintained. One of the best temple that we have entered in Asia and we have been around. So it is worth the money.
The temple is surrounded with a massive and beautiful park so you can easily spend your entire day here.
Ticket price: Main entrance ticket costs 108 but in order for you to enter the other temple then you have to pay extra. The main Guanyin Statue temple charges 25rmb per person.. So better yet prepare 150-180 in case you wanna see every temple inside that require extra payments .
‼️Tip:
1. Rent an ebike so you can just drive from your hotel. Such a fun experience

Throwback 2018!
Hainan, Sanya is definitely a must go place where you can enjoy both mountain and sea! Guanyin of Nanshan is an unique Buddhist Temple and you will be amazed by how grand the Guanyin statue is! Apart from that, you can also enjoy seaview there! Yalong Bay Tropic Paradise Forest Park is a interesting place to visit for those that likes nature and it's also the filming location for Chinese drama called "亲爱的热爱的" also known as "Go Go Squid". We decided to go First Market for our seafood feast! However, do beware of some scam for the pricing of the seafood. Other than that, the food are delicious! Last but not least, the sunset view there are awesome!

Majestic Goddess in the South China Sea
The Guanyin of Nanshan is a “must see” if you are visiting Sanya, China!
This statue stands at 108 meters (354ft) tall and has three unique sides. Pictures cannot capture the sheer magnitude of the bodhisattva Guanyin.
We took a DiDi from our hotel in Yalong Bay to visit and walked to the base of the statue after we purchased entrance tickets.
We were excited to learn that there is an entire, multi story shrine located inside of the statue and spent quite a while exploring the beauty inside. Once we reached the sixth floor, we left through an exit that took us to the base of the statue. The views were stunning!
There is a lot to explore around the area. I recommend spending at least half a day here! Bring your sunscreen. :)

SANYA Guanyin Goddess
Getting There - You can take a bus which goes all the way to the park or you can take a Didi which cost me 150rmb
Attractions - The park is big and beautiful. There is so much to see and photograph. Unfortunately there were heavy rains so I couldn't see much except for the temple under the Goddess.
Hotels - I stayed at the Phoenix Island Resort on Phoenix Island. It's famous for having bathtubs on the balcony of each room.
Food & Restaurants - Plenty of food vendors on site. Only Chinese food, no western.
Shopping - lots of gift shops.

Grand and majestic Guanyin of Nanshan, Sanya
In #sanya , you can find a huge and peaceful looking Guanyin statue in Nanshan. It is set beautifully in the sea and near a very nice #beach
This amazing statue is more than 100 meters tall and set in the sea. It should still be one of tallest statues around. To access it, you have to walk through a long bridge. To get there, easiest is to follow a day tour where they will bring you there directly and give you clear instructions on access. Quite a lot of walking is required so do be prepared.
It is definitely worth going there to take a look as it is extremely beautiful and peaceful looking if you are in Sanya for a #holiday

You can see a different culture there. it’s not just only the Buddha statue, so you can walk around the area which I enjoyed most. I took a local bus from Sanya bay which cost 12 yen ish. that was actually interesting. You should try if you have time.

Sanya Nanshan Temple - South Sea Guanyin
About South Sea Guanyin:
✨Approved by the State Council in 1993 and completed in 1999, the temple is backed by mountains and faces the sea, located on a coast in Yacheng, Sanya, known as the South Sea Guanyin, with the backing mountain called Nanshan.
🌟It is the world's first golden jade statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva, and the treasure of Hainan Island. The Guanyin statue is 108 meters tall, with three aspects holding a lotus, a pearl, and a sutra box, respectively, standing on a lotus throne with 108 petals. Below the lotus throne is the Vajra Platform, which houses the Circular Hall, and the 280-meter-long Puji Bridge connects to the mainland.
📍Location: Nanshan Temple is located in Tianya District, surrounded by three scenic spots: Xidao, Tianya Haijiao, and Tianya Town.
🚗Transportation: It's a 1-hour drive from the downtown area, with a round-trip taxi fare of 160, self-driving is recommended.

🚌Tourist Bus: Right after entering the Non-Duality Gate, there is a separate ticket booth on the left, 30/person, 60 people per bus, stopping at every station (the price is the same if you buy tickets midway, the park is large so it is recommended to take the tourist bus for a more relaxed experience).
🛣Tour Route

🙏Preparation for Worship
Dress neatly, do not wear overly revealing or casual clothing.
Prepare some cash in advance, which can be used for drawing lots, interpreting lots, and offering incense, showing more sincerity.
Pay attention to sun protection, as the sun is harsh and there are long walking distances within the park, and you need to take off your glasses and hat when entering the hall to worship.
🧣Free Activities:
✨On the left side of the Circular Hall under the Sea-based Guanyin, you can get a free stamp, a 50-pound blessed stamp, one free stamp per person.
✨Opposite the Thirty-three Guanyin Hall, in the Nanshan Retreat, you can draw/interpret lots for free, asking for marriage, safety, wealth, and success.
✨Inside the Thirty-three Guanyin Hall, you can copy Buddhist scriptures for free to pray for blessings.
‼️tips:
The total walking distance in the park is 6 kilometers, it is recommended to take the sightseeing bus, the ticket price is the same if you buy midway, and the park does not provide one-way tickets.
To hug the Buddha's feet, you need to take the elevator to the 4th floor and then climb 3 flights of stairs to reach the top, first circle around the Buddha's feet before hugging them.
No need to bring your own incense, there is free incense available at every worship spot in the park.
When offering incense, donate incense money as you wish, so it counts as your contribution (can be small amounts like one or five yuan).
Do not blow out the incense with your mouth, gently fan it out with your hand, and offer incense with your left hand.
When entering the hall, enter from the left and exit from the right, do not step on the threshold.
When taking a photo with a Buddha statue, do not make a peace sign ✌️ as it will cut off your blessings, you can put your hands together and close your eyes lightly.
When making a wish, be focused, report your name to yourself first, then start wishing, do not make wishes casually, and you must fulfill your vow once the wish is granted.
No photography is allowed inside the Circular Hall, always remember.
Luggage storage is available at the tourist service center at the ticket office, 5 yuan per locker per day.

Are you all notified about coming to Sanya in December?
Are you all notified about coming to Sanya in December?
Coming to Sanya, of course, you have to prepare the travel guide in advance to avoid pitfalls and have fun! Personally tested summary, hope it can help you~
🚌Transportation:
1. There are many illegal taxis at the airport, do not take them! Queue for a taxi or go directly to the parking lot opposite to take a ride-hailing car
2. The attractions in Sanya are too far apart, taxis are expensive, but buses are very convenient, there are buses to each attraction
3. Sanya does not have a subway, but there is a sightseeing tram from Guogou to the high-speed train station, which is less crowded, spacious, and quite comfortable
4. There are many motorcycles, which can be an option during traffic jams, remember to bargain with the driver and wear a helmet
5. There are many pitfalls in renting a car, I don't really recommend it unless you want to drive around the island
🏨Accommodation:
1. Sanya has entered the peak season, be sure to book accommodation in advance, it's easy to run out of rooms if you book on arrival
2. Compare three, look at the real reviews left by netizens, don't just look at the pictures, it's easy to be 'photo deceived'
3. Sanya Bay and Dadonghai are closer to the city center and have convenient transportation. Yalong Bay and Haitang Bay have many hotels and are suitable for vacations
🏄🏻♀️Sightseeing:
1. Both West Island and Wuzhizhou Island are islands for sea viewing and playing, you can just visit one of them, I went to West Island and it was quite nice, with a strong atmosphere of a small fishing village
2. Houhai Village is too hyped on social media, the environment is actually average, but it's still okay for surfing
3. Nanshan Tourism Zone is very large, don't just go to see the Guanyin statue, you can also visit the Wealth God Temple, Nanshan Bieyuan to draw lots, and the Thirty-Three Guanyin Hall to make wishes, you need to buy a ticket for the small train, otherwise, your feet will be worn out
4. Tianya Town is very photogenic, but only the row by the sea is worth taking pictures of, it's far from the city center, it's not necessary to make a special trip unless you live nearby
5. The Coconut Dream Corridor is really long, 20 kilometers, don't directly navigate to 'Coconut Dream Corridor', if you want to see the sunset navigate to 'Haiyue Square', if you want to take portraits navigate to 'Haiyun Hotel', if you want to catch the sea navigate to 'Beautiful New Coast'
6. Yalong Bay Forest Park is not very suitable for families, the park is very large, you need to climb mountains and cross bridges, it's tiring
🛍Shopping:
1. Don't buy specialties in the scenic area, the supermarkets in the city like Wanghao Supermarket and Womei Supermarket are more cost-effective
2. For fruits, go to Xinhonggang Market, it's cheaper after 7 pm
3. The fruits sold by roadside vendors are not expensive but they shortchange on weight, some are even soaked in sugar water, don't buy
4. You must go to the duty-free shop in advance, otherwise, there won't be enough time for distribution and you won't be able to buy
5. There are four duty-free shops in Sanya, if you don't know which one to go to, just go to the CDF International Duty-Free City in Haitang Bay, it's more comprehensive
6. If you already have a target, go to Haitravel or Zhongfu for iPhone15, Haitravel for cosmetics, and Zhongfu for gold
7. The crafts at night markets and scenic spots are too overpriced, like pearls, bracelets, etc., if you're not in a hurry, you can search for the same items online
😋Food:
To be honest, there are quite a lot of delicious foods in Sanya, even I, an outsider, find them very appetizing
1️⃣ In Hainan, you must eat chicken, there's a local saying 'Go to Sanya to see the sea, eat chicken in Yanjiang', Yanjiang Hainan Cuisine Yalong Bay's Intangible Cultural Heritage Double Chicken is really good! It's something you can't eat anywhere else! Must try
2️⃣ Of course, you also need to eat seafood, the two seafood restaurants I went to are very reliable, the seafood is freshly caught and cooked, you can see the freshness. If you want to eat seafood while watching the sea, go to Buzaike Seafood in Dadonghai, if you want to experience the local life of Sanya, go to Train Head's Haiwei Chanshi Seafood, both are great!
3️⃣ The local hotpot is also a must-try, Qiong Er Zao Cu·Coconut Chicken Hotpot Restaurant is very good, you can eat two kinds of special hotpot at once, whatever you want to dip
4️⃣ There's also a local specialty food that is a must-visit, Xiao Bai's Eastern Roast Suckling Pig has won awards, the freshly roasted suckling pig has crispy skin and tender meat, it's not greasy at all, and tastes even more special with sugar~
5️⃣ Various snacks: Yacheng stinky tofu, Lingshui sour noodles, pickled Baoluo powder, colorful cake, colorful shrimp, fried chicken wings, Hainan skewers, rice mush... also too numerous to mention, be sure to try them all if you have time!

Sanya Nanshan Temple·South Sea Guanyin, see the mountains, see the sea, see all beings
✅Sanya Nanshan Cultural Tourism Area (Nanshan Temple, South Sea Guanyin), 5A, ticket price 129, parking 8 yuan, suggested tour time 3~5 hours, because you can 👀 the sea for a long time. Key point: Be sure to go to the sea-viewing platform in front of Nanshan Temple.
About South Sea Guanyin:
✨Approved by the State Council in 1993 and completed in 1999, it is located on a coast of Yacheng in Sanya, known as South Sea Guanyin, and the mountain behind it is called Nanshan.
🌟It is the world's first golden jade Guanyin Bodhisattva statue and the treasure of Hainan Island. The Guanyin statue is 108 meters high, with three bodies, each holding a lotus, a bead, and a sutra box in their hands, stepping on a lotus throne with 108 petals. The Vajra platform under the lotus throne is the Yuan Tong Bao Dian, and the 280-meter-long Puji Bridge is connected to the mainland.
✳️The three Guanyins each hold a bead, a lotus, and a sutra box in their hands, each with different implications:
☞✨The front is the Guanyin holding the sutra box, embodying the prajna virtue of Guanyin, that is, the wisdom virtue. The sutra box represents the six hundred volumes of the Prajna Sutra, observing all sentient beings and freely converting them, and enlightening sentient beings with prajna.
✨The right side is the Guanyin holding the rosary, embodying the liberation virtue of Guanyin, that is, completely getting rid of ignorance and various fetters, reaching the state of great freedom and ease, expressing the compassionate spirit of 'sentient beings recite the Buddha, and the Buddha recites sentient beings' as equals.
✨The left side is the Guanyin holding the lotus, embodying the dharma body virtue of Guanyin. Guanyin is the main deity of the Lotus Department of Esoteric Buddhism. The lotus is the samaya form of Guanyin, symbolizing the 'eternal joy and purity' four virtues; it is the holy flower in Buddhism, symbolizing the sentient beings' meatball heart, the lotus body is pure, out of the mud but not stained, the root and stem are connected, symbolizing 'the heart, Buddha, sentient beings, three without difference'. It generally represents the purity and six roots of Guanyin.

Hainan Ten-Day Tour
A ten-day tour of Hainan takes you to the Nanshan Sea Guanyin Scenic Area in Sanya. The South Sea Guanyin is known as the 'Treasure of the Sea' in Hainan, and Nanshan is the southernmost mountain on Hainan Island. The saying 'Blessings are as vast as the East Sea and life is as long as Nanshan' refers to this place. It is indeed a meritorious act to build such a spectacular Guanyin statue in such a blessed place. The 108-meter-tall Sea Guanyin is 15 meters taller than the Statue of Liberty, making it the world's largest statue of Guanyin in white clothes and the tallest Guanyin statue in the world, made of titanium alloy. The holy statue of Guanyin holds a lotus in one hand, a scripture in another, and a Buddhist bead in the third. It is a three-in-one statue of Guanyin with a solemn appearance, standing on a 108-petal lotus throne. The lotus throne is ten meters high, with four layers, each with 27 identical lotus petals, totaling 108. Underneath the lotus throne is the Vajra throne, inside which is the Yuantong Treasure Hall with an area of 15,000 square meters. Inside the hall are various statues of Guanyin for worship, and you can also take an elevator up to hug Buddha's feet for blessings. It's important to go early, as it takes 2-3 hours to queue up to enter the hall. I specifically went to meditate under the Bodhi tree in the scenic area, and indeed, the blessings here are boundless. As soon as I sat down, I felt calm and at peace. Every time I worship the huge Guanyin statue, I feel a lotus blooming in my heart, and all is silent. The last time I worshipped at the Ci Hang Hall in Lingyin Temple, it was the same. Guanyin Bodhisattva relieves all suffering in the world, and when you come to Hainan, you must come here to worship.
Next, take a boat to West Island. West Island is known as the 'Paradise on the Sea, Dynamic Heaven', which is very attractive. Here, tourists can fully appreciate the beauty of the tropical islands and participate in a variety of fun activities. It can be roughly summarized as 'One Port, Two Islands, Five Parts, Ten Sceneries': 'One Port, Two Islands' is the overall spatial composition of the West Island Tourist Resort, namely, Xiaoqi Port Passenger Terminal, West Island Amusement World, and Niuwang Island Ecological Park. 'Five Parts, Ten Sceneries' are the core attractions of the West Island Tourist Resort, namely, diving, water sports, parasailing, sea fishing, beach five leisure sports clubs; Cape Golden Sand, Golden Bull Overlooking the Sea, Sea Oath Mountain Alliance, Opening the Sky, Spirit Turtle Strange Stone and other ten core landscapes. We have already experienced various sea projects, mainly to go to Niuwang Island. Niuwang Island is located to the southwest of West Island, almost connected to West Island, a miniature island. Niuwang Island has the most primitive island scenery, where you can enjoy the magnificent sea and sky, the amazing reef landscape, and the majestic sunrise and sunset. The homestays on West Island also have island characteristics, and the living experience is very good.

Check in at Sanya Nanshan Guanyin and Nanshan Temple!
When traveling to Sanya, you must check in at Nanshan Guanyin, which is 108 meters high and very shocking! Nanshan Guanyin is located in Sanya Nanshan Cultural Tourism Zone, and tickets can be directly purchased on Ctrip, which is very convenient!
🧳Preparation before departure:
When visiting Nanshan Guanyin, be sure to prepare sun protection measures before you go. If there is a long queue, you also need to pay attention to heatstroke prevention. Wear a pair of comfortable shoes, even if you take a small train, you still need to walk a lot.
💰Average consumption:
It is recommended to buy a package ticket, including admission ticket and small train for 152 yuan. Taking a small train in the scenic area can save a lot of effort!
✅Must experience:
You must go to Nanshan Guanyin, queue up to enter the hall, take the elevator to the foot of Guanyin, touch the Buddha's foot, hug the Buddha's foot, the implication is quite good!
You must also check in at Nanshan Temple, the scenery is very beautiful, and you can also burn incense and worship Buddha! There is also a Bodhi forest next to the temple, where you can take pictures and check in.
📝Note tips:
There are a lot of tourists going to Nanshan Guanyin in winter, and the queue to hug the Buddha's foot is basically an hour to start, so pay attention to arrange the time!
There are many attractions in the Nanshan Cultural Zone, and you can reach them by taking a small train. But when there are many people, there are also many people queuing for the small train. Some attractions need to wait a long time to take the small train after getting off, so it is recommended to choose a few favorite attractions to get off, or just walk to check in at each attraction without taking the small train, but it requires a lot of physical strength.
🖼Restaurant environment:
There are several restaurants in the scenic area. We dined at the restaurant near Nanshan Guanyin. All are vegetarian. The two-person set meal is 168 yuan and 198 yuan. The price is not cheap, but the taste is okay. The 198 yuan set meal for two people can be full!
It is recommended to go to the scenic area early to check in at most attractions. If you arrive at the scenic area at noon, you can only choose a few attractions to check in. Plan your time!
The cost of taking a taxi from the city to the Nanshan Cultural Tourism Zone is generally more than 100 yuan, which is very convenient. You can also choose to take a bus, which is more cost-effective, but waiting for the bus wastes a lot of time, consider your own time and itinerary!
When traveling to Sanya, you must go to the Nanshan Cultural Tourism Zone once, it's really worth it!

The Nanhai Guanyin is the most famous attraction in Sanya, where the incense is very popular all year round. Nanshan should be the best among them, because it has all the right time, location.T he "peaceful, solemn and sacred" face of Guanyin Bodhisattva makes you immediately feel her compassion, tolerance and peace. The light of the Buddha seems to suddenly illuminate the body and mind of us mortals.

At night, the seaside has a different scenery too. If you are close to the seaside after dinner, you can take a walk.
🍲Recommended dishes:
In Hainan, you must try Qing Bu Liang, coconut rice, Wenchang chicken, seafood, and more.
Seafood, I suggest buying it from a place where you can go fishing by the seaside, and then steaming it (to preserve the freshness).

When visiting scenic areas, be sure to apply sunscreen! Drink plenty of water! Don't get sunburned, and if you do, use aloe vera to soothe your face (apply several times)!

108m Nanshan Sea Goddess of Mercy - known as the world's tallest Guanyin icon
wuqiuhuang.
In 1993, the Chinese State Council Religious Affairs Bureau and the Hainan People's Government approved the construction of Sanya Nanshan Temple, and in the sea in front of the temple, the 108-meter-high sea Guanyin statue was built, belonging to the Nanshan Cultural Tourism Zone. This image was built by Hainan Sanya Nanshan Gongde Foundation. It is three-in-one, and it is the most spectacular in the world. Due to its grand scale, great significance and rich Buddhism, the design project is known as the "world class, century class" Buddhist project. President Zhao Puchu of the Chinese Buddhist Association is pleased to be the title of the icon--"Nanshan Sea Goddess of Mercy". The 108-meter sea Guanyin stands in the South China Sea, with a grand scale and great significance. For the guise of the sea, there are many legends in the folk, which also cast a mysterious veil on the sea Guanyin and the Nanshan Cultural Garden scenic spot. Many tourists are out of curiosity about the sea Guanyin. But most of the people who come here are coming for the worship of the heart!

The Nanshan Scenic Area is still quite large, and there are many attractions: Nanshan Temple, Nanhai Guanyin Buddha Statue, Fujia Famen, Guanyin Culture Garden, Tianzhu Holy Land, Buddha Scenic Garden, Shifang Tallinn and Guigen Garden, Buddhist Cultural Exchange Center, etc. All of them are definitely not going to work, and finally decided to spend most of their time on the spectacular 108-meter sea Guanyin.
Looking at Guanyin from a distance, I feel that I am not very far away from myself. I walked around and found that there is actually a long distance.
finally walked to a platform with a lot of people, you can see the Guanyin image more clearly, surrounded by a ribbon of blessings, visitors write down their wishes and wishes, carefully attached to the shelf .
There is a huge hand on each side of the platform. In Buddhism, different gestures represent different meanings, some express relief for all beings, some express inner peace, I dont understand this, these two What does the gesture mean, do you know if you have children's shoes?
Listen to the locals saying that all flights to Sanya will hover over Guanyin when they land, praying for peace. On the same day, I really saw two planes flying over Guanyin and heading for Phoenix Airport.
Friends said that the beach is beautiful, the sea is super blue, it is true, but unfortunately this beach has not been given to tourists, it is said that in the past few years, you can still go to play and take pictures.
Since I can't get on the beach, I can only enjoy this blue sea. In order to take a closer look at the sea Guanyin, my companion and I went down to the bridge and walked toward the Guanyin Hall.

The South China Sea Guanyin is far from the urban area. On the day of the trip, it encounters rainy days, making it even more sacred and sacred. Because it is rainy and foggy, the South China Sea Guanyin seems to be invisible, like a mythical scene, Guanyin holding the scriptures, the gods descending, The fairy mask is not open for a long time.
ps: The scenic area is large. It is recommended to visit the hotel one day. After entering the park, there is a cable car tour, and you need to purchase another ticket. After entering the park, there is a vegetarian buffet, as well as a variety of snacks, you can choose.

Every time I go to Sanya Nanshan, I feel different. Many peoples first impression of Sanya may be the Guanyin at the sea in Nanshan. I took the plane to Sanya and have not landed. I can see the 108-meter-high Guanyin standing high above the sea through the porthole of the plane. The sea is blue, the Guanyin is white, and the posture is peaceful. Starting from the sea Guanyin, open a beautiful impression of Sanya. Nanshan, Sanya, as the largest tourist area in Sanya for the year, is naturally a must. Nanshan brings together Buddhist culture, healthy health culture, and unique natural resources of mountains and seas. Nanhai worships Guanyin, vegetarian food, and explores the password of Hainanese longevity.
Guanyins legend of the South China Sea rescue and relief is widely spread in the people, so Guanyin Bodhisattva is often referred to as the Nanhai Guanyin. According to Buddhist classics, the Guanyin Bodhisattva has set aside 12 major wishes, the second largest of which is Changhai Nanhai Wish. We all know the story of the Tang Dynasty's Gao Zhenjian, who crossed the road to promote the Dharma in Japan, but did not know that Jianzhen Dongdu was not smooth sailing. Jianzhen failed five times to cross Japan, and the fifth time he encountered a typhoon, drifting to the Nanshan area of Sanya. After the rest, the sixth time Dongdu finally succeeded. At the same time, Japan sent the Tang Dynasty to the air and the monks went to the Central Plains to seek the Fa, and it was also a good result with Nanshan. East to West is the two major events of Sino-Japanese cultural exchanges. Sanya Nanshan is also considered to be a deep Dharma resort.
