A trip to the well-known Tianya Haijiao Scenic Area in Sanya is always a treat during the National Day holiday, but there is another spot there that's especially attractive for both lovers and couples - the Yalong Bay International Rose Valley.

The rose valley has various kinds of roses growing there, and is also an ideal place for shooting wedding photos. You can also pick tropical fruits and vegetables at its organic farm and make your own rose sauce and rose cookies.

After enjoying the beautiful flowers and tasting delicious food made of roses, you can buy handicrafts made of roses, or skin-care products like rose cream from the store as souvenirs for your friends.

Yalong Bay is a half-moon-shaped bay in the southeast of Sanya, with an annual average air temperature of 25.5 C. It is also one of the filming locations used in the famous Chinese film If You are the One.
