Here’s a guide to Haikou’s must-visit spots for a memorable trip:
A coastal viewpoint close to the city, known for its rugged rocks and the poetic nickname “the place where the sea dries up and the rocks rot.” Its romantic vibe makes it a popular spot for wedding photos. The combination of the lighthouse and the coastline 🌊 creates perfect blockbuster-worthy shots.
(About 3km from Yundong Library)
Haikou’s world-famous Yundong Library, playfully called “slippers” by tourists, is actually incredibly literary. Its white exterior contrasts beautifully with the blue sea, lush coconut trees, and tropical plants—truly a structure “born by the sea,” oozing romantic charm.
(About 4km from Qilou Old Street)
A unique urban gem, featuring arcade buildings with diverse, curved eaves skylines. Look for the Jianwai Folk Inn—climb to the third floor for stunning check-in photos and panoramic shots of the street.
(About 6km from Sky Mountain)
Situated on the north bank of Haikou Bay estuary, 7 meters above sea level, it offers sweeping views of Haikou Bay and the city skyline. It’s an excellent spot to watch the sunset and capture beautiful photos.

Haikou’s iconic landmark, located at the intersection of “Haikou Bund,” Wanlv Park, and Meilisha. It’s majestic by day and dazzling at night, with lights that make it feel like a scene from a movie 🎬.
(About 300m from Yundong Library)
Nestled between Hairui Bridge and Qiongzhou Bridge, this avenue features neat, uniform trees along the Nandu River bank. You can also spot the historic Nandu River Iron Bridge here—it’s a peaceful spot perfect for relaxing and taking photos 🎬.
Staying on the middle to upper floors offers panoramic views of Coconut City and Haikou Bay. The Cloud Bar on the 55th floor is a jazz bar with live performances, serving champagne, signature cocktails, red wine, and fine wines from around the world—ideal for a sophisticated evening.
A two-day “special forces” trip to Haikou packs in all these highlights, blending natural beauty, cultural charm, and urban vibes. It’s a city where every corner feels like a new adventure!
