Visiting the Hainan Museum will actually make you feel good. Seriously, it will. A recent study conducted by Harris Interactive found that people are happier when they spend money on experiences rather than material purchases, (even though the museum is free).


It goes without saying that the primary role of any museum is to engage and educate visitors and the community, and there’s no doubt that it would be virtually impossible to exit the Hainan Museum without having gained significant information or insight into Hainan’s history and culture during your visit.


Hainan Museum is a modern, interactive and visually stimulating microcosm of a Hainan’s past, and a wonderful repository of historical artifacts and achievements in art.
