Golden Bull Mountain Ridge Park, Urban park in Haikou, China.
Golden Bull Mountain Ridge Park is an urban park in Haikou that centers around a mountain ridge with a lake, walking trails, and thick forest cover across most of its grounds. The landscape offers a mix of open water and wooded areas that visitors can explore throughout the space.
The park opened in 1996 and includes a cemetery honoring soldiers who fought to liberate Hainan Island from Japanese occupation. This memorial site preserves memory of a significant moment in the region's past.
The ridge takes its name from a local legend about a mystical bull that emerged during droughts to bring rain to the land. Visitors today can sense how this old story remains woven into the place's character.
The park offers multiple entry points near public transportation, making it convenient to reach on foot or by transit. Comfortable walking shoes are helpful since trails wind through the space, and visiting in early morning or late afternoon hours tends to be more pleasant.
The ridge's highest point holds a small zoo, a pigeon aviary, and a butterfly garden gathered in one area. These animal and insect attractions add a different element to a visit that many people miss when exploring the park.
