History & Tourism devoplement of Wenchang
Hainan Island
Named Ziben 2000 years ago, Wenchang has a long history
over 2000 years being a very important town in Northeast
of Hainan Island since 110 B.C. In the year 627,
Wenchang got her name. In 1995 Wenchang became a city
from a local town under Hainan Province.
The past 10 years saw a great change in Wenchang's
economy and tourism development. Before 1994 when Sanya
Airport was finished, all the tour groups will visit
Wenchang first night, second night in Xinglong, Third
night in Sanya, and the last night in Haikou. But since
the construction of Sanya Airport, many group tours
skipped Wenchang which made Wenchang a very quite place
now. Most visitors are from Haikou or overseas Chinese
who visit their relatives and friends in Wenchang during
their Hainan Trip.
