Haikou's Arcade Streets lie in the city's old town and preserve a large number of Nanyang-style shophouse buildings, with a history tracing back to Hainan's modern port-opening era. It is an important historic and cultural district.
Lined with shops, from long-established businesses to authentic street snacks, it is a good place to stroll, take photos, taste local food and absorb Haikou's daily life, and is often combined with a Sanya trip.
