With 209.1 kilometers long coastline, this coastal city - Sanya has many natural advantages. It plays an important role in importing and exporting, and therefore, it is also named the 'South Gate of China'.

It has opened six international air routes to Southeast Asian cities, including Singapore, Phnom Penh, Siem Reap, Pattaya, Jakarta and Bangkok.
