CHEYENNE FULLER

There must always be a historical first - the earliest administrative system on Hainan Island

Dongpo Academy was built in the Northern Song Dynasty (1098) to commemorate the great literary giant and exiled official Su Dongpo of the Northern Song Dynasty. It was later renovated and renamed in the Ming Dynasty (1549). 890 years ago, Su Dongpo spent three years of exile here accompanied by his young son Su Guo. Later generations named the places where he lectured, met friends, and lived as Dongpo Village, Dongpo Field, Dongpo Well, Dongpo Road, Dongpo Sitting Stone, and built a clay statue of Dongpo Residence to commemorate him. Hainan Province, Danzhou City, Zhonghe Town (free parking lot in the scenic area) Business hours: 8:30-17:30 No entry after 17:00 ⚠ Friends who go there should dress warmly and apply sunscreen The main gate of the academy is grand and broad, with towering ancient trees in the courtyard. The prices of ice cream and drinks sold in the shop are also very reasonable. We bought old popsicles for only two yuan each❗ There is also a service for writing calligraphy where you can take it away after writing, five yuan per piece❗ We also bought a fan for 38r and a bookmark for 35r at the entrance of the scenic area. The prices and half-price tickets are all in the last photo, friends who need it can take it themselves.
