Turn-round-deer
Park
The
Turn-round-deer Park lies in the south of Sanya City, 3 kilometres away
from the urban areas and it is a world famous winter and summer
resort. There is a beautiful and moving story about it. Long long ago,
there was a hardworking and brave young man of Li nationality. He
held his bow and arrow to chase after a mountain deer. He chased for nine
days and nine nights and climbed over ninety-nine hills till he reached a
bay on the most southern part. The mountain deer, facing the blue waves,
with no way ahead, turned its head suddenly and changed to a beautiful
girl of Li nationality. She walked to the young man with love in her
eyes, and showed her honest love to him. Then they married each other.
Today, there is a huge stone sculpture named "Turn-round-deer"
here, with magnificent style and deep connotation. Sanya City gets its
name of "Deer City" because of this. In the park, green trees
grow flourishing and the environment is quiet and secluded. If you come to
the place in which the hunter and the deer girl loved each other and
remind the moving love story of "Turn-round-deer", you may
never forget it. The Turn-round-deer Park is the only and best place
for overlooking the whole city of Sanya. At hight, you may enjoy the
whole Luhuitou (Turn-round-deer) Seashore and the no-night city of
Sanya.
