What do you know about Hainan? Besides (除了) its warm sunshine, golden beaches and blue seas, the province has some other interesting features.

China’ s southernmost city

If you are bored of Hainans more popular tourist cities, such as Sanya and Haikou, you may want to go to Sansha instead. Sansha is China’s southernmost city. It includes many small islands, sandbanks and reefs in the Xisha, Zhongsha and Nansha island groups. Since Sansha was established in 2012, a hospital, a library and a movie theater have been built on Yongxing.

The “migratory birds”

Migratory birds fly from the north to the south in winter. In China, a group of people are also referred to as “migratory birds”. Every year, from October to April, people from all over China go on holiday to Hainan to enjoy the warm weather and fresh air. Most of them are elderly people from northern China, especially Northeast China. According to the Hainan local government, more than million elderly choose to spend their winter in Hainan each year. These elderly “migratory birds” also encourage younger family members to join them on the sunny island.

A famous forum (论坛)

People in other countries might not know about Hainan, but they probably know about Boao. Boao, a town in Hainan, became Chinas first permanent (永久的) site for hosting international meetings in 2001. Every year in April, the Boao Forum for Asia, a nongovernmental international organization, hosts its annual meetings. Officials, business people and experts from different countries come to boao to discuss economic issues.

The forum has been important for the development of Asian cities. Hainan and boao have both benefited (收益) greatly from hosting the meetings. More restaurants and hotels have been built, creating more jobs for locals. An airport was opened in 2016. The forum has helped Hainan build itself into an international tourist attraction.

Imagine this. Someone hides free books on the subway for you to find and read. Sounds exciting? Well, a British girl named Emma Watson is doing it! She is known for acting as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movies.

Watson hid 100 copies of a book called Mom & Me & Mom on London's subway. The book is an autobiography(自传) from US writer Maya Angelou. It tells about the writer's relationship with her mother. She put the books in different places on the subway. People saw Watson doing the same thing on New York's subway this month.”

With each book, there is a handwritten note by Watson. She asked people to “take special care” of the books if they find them. She also wrote that “when you are finished, please leave it on the subway again for someone else to find”.

Watson's work is part of a movement(活动) called Books on the Subway. It invites people to leave their books on the subway so that other people can enjoy them too.

Hollie Belton, a woman in London, started the movement in 2012. She loves reading on the subway. She found that a lot of people shared her habit so she got the idea. Over the years, Belton has left over 2000 books of her own. Nowadays more and more people get interested in the movement because of her.
