Wanquan River 万泉河 (Means ten-thousand-spring river):
the third longest river in Hainan Province and is 162 km long. It rises in the Wuzhishan Mountain, and flows generally northeast turbulent in a narrow route through mountainous regions. About halfway downstream, it enters Qionghai. Here the riverbed widens, and the water flows gently, and on the banks are mostly coconut trees and banana plantations. For its last 30 km, the river makes a southeast turn, before it empties into the South China Sea at Bo’ao, where it joins the Longgun River and Jiuqu River in a common estuary. The upstream is good for challenging rafting, while the downstream is nice for a leisure sightseeing tour in local boat.
