Sanya Gears up for Holistic Tourism, Set up 12 English Corners

12 English corners which aim to help promote Sanya’s holistic tourism have been set up in the city.

The 12 English corners are located at Haicheng Bookstore (Xinfeng Street Branch), Zhongliao Village, Linwang Tourism Area, Wuzhizhou Island, Fengxinglong Park, Tianya Haijiao Scenic Spot, Haitang Bay International Duty Free Shopping Complex, Resort Intime Sanya, Nanshan Cultural Tourism Zone, Haitang Bay Huizhi Social Work Service Center and the Sanya Aviation & Tourism College.

The initiative aims to improve the English level in Sanya as part of the city’s effort to develop into an international seaside boutique tourist resort and a demonstration area for holistic tourism.

Sanya is working to develop into a world-class coastal tourist city. The English corners held throughout the city will help with the healthy development of Sanya’s tourism industry and help to develop Sanya’s holistic tourism environment.

In addition to the English corners, the Sanya government has also launched practical English training classes that train workers in Sanya’s government departments, enterprises, and institutional organizations, with the aim of improving their English levels and thereby better servicing international tourists and helping to shape the reputation of a “Friendly Sanya” on the international stage.
