Bawangling National Forest Park ⛰️ is a newly opened tourist attraction in Hainan. As a nature reserve, it's free of the commercialization found in other rainforest scenic areas. It retains the original appearance of the primeval forest in central Hainan Island and is considered the essence of Hainan's tropical rainforest. The rare and endangered Hainan gibbon 🐒 inhabits this area. I arrived in the morning, just as the park opened. The sun hadn't yet penetrated the dense primeval forest, which was shrouded in mist and looked like a fairyland. The air, filled with the fragrance of earth and vegetation, was refreshing! ⛳Bawangling National Forest Park (Currently open areas include 🌱Baishi Lake and Yajia📍, 8 km apart) ps: ☑️Baishi Lake is less developed, with only a boardwalk running through the forest. You can see unique ecological landscapes such as "air gardens," "aerial roots," and "plant strangulation." It's a great place for rainforest exploration and oxygen intake. The fog was thick when I visited, and a forest ranger kindly guided me. ☑️Yajia is more developed and focuses on waterfalls.

Clap your hands to sing along!" After recording the cry of a gibbon, Lele frowned when replaying it: "Why did it become my cry?"

While walking on the canopy suspension bridge, Lele held on to the rope tightly and vowed: "When I grow up, I want to be Tarzan and swing on vines to give gibbons a haircut!"
