Hainan International Friendship Park, park in Haikou, People's Republic of China
Hainan International Friendship Park is a large green space in Haikou with wide walking paths, open lawns, and trees providing shade throughout the year. Located along the western bank of the Nandu River near Sima Slope Island, it features play areas, benches, and quiet corners for visitors to sit and relax.
The park's development began around 2010 as part of a broader initiative to develop Haikou as a center for international exchange and cooperation. The construction took several years, and the site opened gradually to visitors as different sections were completed.
The park carries symbols and statues expressing friendship and cooperation between nations throughout its grounds. Locals gather here regularly for celebrations, festivals, and community activities that reflect the site's purpose as a place of unity and cultural exchange.
The park is easily accessible by bus or taxi from central Haikou and is open daily to visitors. Its proximity to major transport hubs like Haikou Xiuying Port makes it convenient to visit soon after arriving in the city.
The park remains under gradual development with new sections opening to the public over time. This ongoing evolution means visitors may encounter areas still being refined, creating a dynamic space that continues to grow into its purpose as a symbol of international friendship.
