Hainan Flower World · Qiongzhou Cultural Street

　　Hainan Flower World & Qiongzhou Cultural Street is nestled along the scenic Nandu River. Spanning 500 meters, it occupies a prime location connecting Haikou Meilan International Airport with downtown Haikou. This cultural-themed street integrates tourism, leisure, dining, shopping, academia, and cultural heritage and research. Thanks to its strategic location and abundant resources, it adds a significant new attraction to Haikou’s tourism offerings and will serve as the final stop for visitors exploring, relaxing, and shopping in Hainan before leaving the island.

　　Combining four major functions — Qiongzhou culture, ecological culture, tourism culture, and culinary culture — Qiongzhou Cultural Street will become a new urban ecological landmark for Haikou and a social hub for locals.

　　Hainan Flower World & Qiongzhou Cultural Street was developed under the high attention of the Haikou Municipal Party Committee, Municipal Government, Qiongshan District Party Committee, and District Government. It was invested in and constructed by Haikou Shangdao Baihui Cultural Development Co., Ltd. The project centers around 30 uniquely designed, rustic, and eco-friendly large exhibition halls built in the architectural style of the Li and Miao ethnic groups. Enhanced by garden landscapes, rockeries, trees, and flowing streams that "dress up" the street, it aims to become Hainan’s largest tourism commodities exhibition base, a Hainan Intangible Cultural Heritage exhibition base, a forestry products exhibition base for Haikou, and an exhibition base for Hainan’s pristine rare plants.

　　Qiongzhou Cultural Street actively promotes the development of Hainan as an international tourism island and is committed to introducing global tourism and cultural elements. The street includes three functional zones: the Hainan Tourism Commodities Exhibition Area, the ASEAN Tourism Commodities Exhibition Area, and the International Cuisine & Leisure Dining Area. Visitors can find top-tier local specialties such as Hainan huanghuali wood, ancient Hainan ceramics, and Li brocade, as well as artworks from five ASEAN countries, including rubies, sapphires, jade, crocodile skin crafts, and wood carvings. They can also sample snacks from Thailand, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan.

　　The leading developer of Qiongzhou Cultural Street, Dongguan Fulin Timber Industry Co., Ltd., is a comprehensive large-scale preservative wood production and processing enterprise. It undertook the investment and construction of all the exhibition halls on the street, with a total investment of 50 million yuan. Another key developer, Haikou Xuanmei Landscape Engineering Co., Ltd., a powerful landscaping company in Hainan, was responsible for the entire street’s garden landscape project, investing 20 million yuan.

　　Key tenants of Qiongzhou Cultural Street include the “Weaver Girl of Tiantang” – a Li brocade pavilion created by Hainan Jinxiu Textile Shell Industrial Co., Ltd.; the “Mermaid Girl” – a shell art pavilion developed by Hainan Wanmei Industrial Co., Ltd.; the Agarwood Museum, created by the Hainan Agarwood Culture Research Association; the Maritime Silk Road Museum, developed by the Hainan Ancient Ceramics Association; and the ASEAN Tourism Commodities Pavilion, led by Mr. Chen Yiliang, a native of Wenchang, Hainan, China, who holds Thai nationality. Mr. Chen brought together the Chiang Rai Small and Medium Enterprises Association of Thailand to join the street, with 30 overseas businesses setting up shops.

　　From May 20 to 26, 2012, the “First 2012 China Tour of ASEAN Countries’ Tourism Commodities in Hainan” was held at Hainan Flower World & Qiongzhou Cultural Street. The exhibition featured dozens of categories of goods, including Thai root carvings, leather goods (such as crocodile skin and lucky fish skin), fragrant rice, Vietnamese rosewood, huanghuali wood, ox horn combs, and Burmese jade. During the event, Thai folk dance troupes and Muay Thai masters performed cultural exchange shows, showcasing the diverse cultural charm of Southeast Asia.

　　This is a unique destination for shopping, leisure, sightseeing, and immersive experiences, where you can enjoy a simple, natural way of life — a moment of carefree leisure amidst a busy world.
