Visit to Village of Li or miao minorities

Man will be asked to play their wedding game.. You have to follow whatever they ask you to do.. they will not told you that you will have to pay RMB49 when the wedding is over..after you pay, someone outside will immediately approached you and call you "bro-in-law" and take photo with you. Once they took the photo, they will ask you for RMB20.. Do not make eye contact with them. Do not take picture with them.

Price gouging

One thing I noticed about Sanya, was that it is definately a destination for Korean package tours.They travel in groups from point A to B to C, always stopping at the same shops, restaurants, photo ops. One bus leaves, another one pulls in to take it's place, non-stop.Watch out for places with tour busses parked outside. Their prices are typically 3x what they should be... Head to the restaurant, food shop, trinket store next door, and prices are much cheaper.

A: Trains on Hainan arrive to the island by train ferry, so if there are high speed trains they have to terminate on the mainland side.
