The park where a deer turned its head… …and I almost broke my neck from the insane views! 😅

Luhuitou Scenic Area (a.k.a. "Deer Turns Its Head Park") sits atop a 275-meter mountain in Sanya. ✨ The legend goes: A young hunter, A Hei, chased a deer for 9 days and nights. At the cliff’s edge, the deer turned back… and transformed into a girl! 💫 They fell in love, and their kids became the ancestors of the Li people. To honor the story, there’s a 12-meter statue of the deer glancing back, plus figures of the hunter and girl in traditional clothes. 👫🦌 The park’s small—you can loop it in 1 hour, snap pics, grab ice cream 🍦, and soak in the views without rushing. 🧷 Entrance is FREE! Just show your passport (or a photo of it) to get a ticket. Hike up 🥾 or zip up in an electric buggy for 28 yuan (round trip!). 🔖 Buses 55, 125, 482, 254 stop right at the entrance (stop: 鹿回头景区). 📍 Luhuitou Scenic Area Show taxi drivers: **鹿回头风景区** Follow me for more in Trip/Telegram @stran_nasti Больше постов на русском языке в тг-канале «Настины странности» #hainan #sanya #china
