http://hainanwel.com/en/hainan-fairs-fe ... sanya.html On January 25, 2012 in Sanya City will be held next New Year's firework with unprecedented scale, dedicated to the New Year by the lunar calendar, participation in the organization which will be attended by teams of pyrotechnics not only from China, but also from France, Britain and Austria, the timing of the firework- January 25, 2012, from 8.30 pm to 9.30 pm, the new venue shown on the map at the top of this article. After we published information about the New Year's fireworks in the city of Sanya, we received information from tourists, that fireworks on January 23, 2012 was held not in the Xiaodonghai Bay but in Dadonghai Bay. We do not have official information about the exact venue from the organizers and fromthe Tourism Department of Sanya City and Tourism Department of Hainan Province and the exact time and place of fireworks they do not feel the need to provide it to us, although the website HainanWel.com-is the only site in the world, every day telling the news about the development of tourism infrastructure of the city of Sanya and Hainan Island in the Russian and English languages for the past year and a half- to attract more tourists to the island of Hainan. In Chinese press there is information, that the ordinary spectator seats to view fireworks cost from 1680 yuan, VIP-ticket costs from 4880 yuan, which is quite unusual amount- even in Hong Kong may buy a ticket on board of the excursion vessel, intended for viewing of fireworks in the harbor of Victoria, at a price that is almost 10 times less, than the cost of review of fireworks in the city of Sanya. What caused such an unusually high amount of fireworks show in Sanya, we find it difficult to understand and we know that more than 99% of foreign tourists would not be pay so much money to see the fireworks in the city of Sanya, as is much cheaper to buy a ticket to Hong Kong and fly to Hong Kong to watch New Year fireworks, because for the Russian, American and European tourists in Hong Kong are visa-free entry. According to information from the press in Hong Kong, for organize a New Year's fireworks 2012 in Hong Kong spent an amount of 2.5 times less, than that spent on organizing the fireworks in the city of Sanya, but in Hong Kong for New Year's fireworks show will come to no less than 100 thousand foreign tourists and in the city of Sanya, Hainan island nobody will come not specially to see the fireworks, as the pre-two months in Hong Kong was reported about the time and place of these fireworks, and foreign tourists planned their trip to Hong Kong, and in Sanya City even Chinese tourists still do not know the exact time and place of these fireworks, and foreign tourists can know about the fireworks in the city of Sanya are exclusively on HainanWel.com, but we have not official information, so we report only the data, that has been able to learn from the local press and local forums in Chinese language, we would have more information in advance, if we received this information from the organizers or from the Tourism Department of Sanya City and Tourism Department of Hainan Province. We would not have reported about these New Year's fireworks in Sanya, if the local media in advance reported, that the fireworks are for paid viewing, but two weeks ago when appeared the first information about these fireworks, made no mention of the fact, that fireworks are paid, fireworks were described as "an unforgettable New Year's show," so we immediately reported about these fireworks for attract more foreign tourists to the city of Sanya and ourselves were surprised, that a few days prior to the event, was written about the amounts for these fireworks in the city of Sanya- is no precedents in any resort of the world, as in other international resorts fireworks are held to attract tourists, and are not for profit.
