CHINA. Prominent Chinese WeChat social media platform Globuy recently visited the acclaimed CDF Mall in Sanya Haitang Bay International Shopping Complex as part of a wider tour of Hainan’s travel retail attractions.
Here we present a short video of the shopping highlights, plus a Picture Gallery that shows how crowds have returned to Hainan as the COVID-19 crisis has receded in China.

The report follows Globuy’s recent visit to the China Duty Free Group-controlled Haikou Riyue Plaza Duty Free Shop and a tour of the stores at Haikou Meilan International Airport.
“We went to Sanya International Duty Free City at the end of 2019 but the second phase had not been completed at that time, and many new brands have entered this year. Plus the new duty free policy was implemented in July, so we decided to rewrite an updated and more comprehensive guide,” said Globuy in a preface to its viewers on WeChat.
