Internet Celebrity Towns PK｜Tianya Town VS Houhai VS Boho Village, Which One Should You Choose?

Traveling in Sanya🏝️, besides the well-known blue sea and sky☁️ and luxury hotels🏨, there are many unique coastal towns worth spending time exploring. In summary, you can listen to the sea at Tianya, chase the waves at Houhai🌊, and experience pastoral clouds at Boho. Once upon a time, Tianya Town, Houhai & Boho Village were very niche travel🧳 destinations. Nowadays, calling them internet-famous can no longer describe their popularity🔥. 🌅 Tianya Town—God’s spilled blue and white palette🎨 In the early morning, when sunlight scatters over the low walls of Maling Community, the seaside🏖 town is soaked in an indescribable shade of blue. Walking through the narrow alleys🚦, your peripheral vision is easily drawn to the blooming bougainvillea🌺 between the blue tiles and white walls. The most attractive feature of the town is that every alley and every fork leads to the sea. Along the coast, there are many coffee☕️ shops. Spend a little money🪙 to enjoy a cup of hand-ground coffee. Just quietly stay for an afternoon, enjoying your own healing island🏝️ slow life, or daydream🤯, take photos📷, or post beautiful pictures🔆 on social media to make those still working envious! In the past, travel was slow, and a lifetime was only enough to love one person—this must be the place they meant! You may skip the inns and bars🍹 in the town, but you must know about them. At sunset🌞, the beach becomes lively, with piles of lazy sofas🛋️ arranged on the sand, umbrellas☂️ shading ice-cold beer🍻 and fiery singing and dancing. The prices are actually not high, affordable for most🤑. If you don’t like noise, you can just find a café by the sea to sit. Lie down and watch the sea, choose ROY Ruoyi, check in and take photos🤳 at Maiya∙Cave. 🎒 Houhai: The Youth Carnival at 18°N Latitude It is said to be the gentlest beach in Sanya. Walking hundreds of meters from the waves🌊, the water depth barely reaches the neck. Backed by mountains and facing the sea, with pristine beaches and rippling coral🪸, the waves hitting your body are small, gentle, and rolling, making it a paradise for beginner surfers. Many call it Sanya’s pure sea, a hidden peach🍑 garden in Haitang Bay. Originally a simple fishing🐠 village, quiet and free. At some point, it became the youth carnival gathering place at 18°N latitude. When the sun sets, the beach comes alive at fixed times: drum🥁 sounds spill from bars, girls in bikinis👙 wearing flip-flops buy grilled squid🦑, and bartenders arrange mint leaves🍃 in mojitos into surfboard shapes. Under the moonlight, Queen’s Bay looks like a shimmering silk. Some gather around bonfires🔥 telling stories of global travel🎒, while you lie in a hammock counting stars💫... 🌴 Boho Village: A Daydream Suspended in Coconut Groves I’ve always wondered why this small village without any sea view has become a rising internet🕸️ celebrity must-visit spot. At one point, the prices of various inns in the village were even higher than star🌟 hotels in Yalong Bay. Quiet and far-reaching, it combines the simplicity of a Hainan fishing village with the convenience of a modern city. Every inn in the village has a great aesthetic. If Tianya Town is a little Santorini with blue🦋 roofs and white walls, Boho Village’s inns are more like pure white🌵 Greek style. Passing by the entrances of these internet-famous inns, you can’t help but stop and look back. Rent a shared electric scooter during the day and wander chaotically through the alleys, letting the salty sea breeze💨 dissipate the fatigue... Compared to the internet-famous Tianya Town and Houhai, this place is more like Bayati to Chiang Mai—the former smells of the sea🐡, the latter has the bustling market atmosphere. ⚠️ Must-visit around the village Aijia Lake ➡️ Boho Li Ethnic Culture and History Museum ➡️ Most Beautiful Sun Bay Road ➡️ Yalong Bay ➡️ Rose Valley ➡️ If You Are the One II (Yalong Bay Forest Park) are all not far from Boho Village and can be explored by bike🚲.
