A world-class tourism destination is taking shape on the island province of Hainan, catering to those in search of culture, countryside, shopping or medical treatment.
Widespread smog in many of China's northern cities is driving ever-larger crowds of winter tourists south to the island province of Hainan in search of cleaner air.
The GDP of Hainan, China's southernmost province, grew by 7.5 percent year-on-year to 404.45 billion yuan ($58.85 billion) in 2016, data released by the provincial government show.
Liu Jiping is selling bottled air from Hainan. And sales are brisk.
Like all women and girls in the village, she spends most of her leisure time creating the traditional handicraft - Li brocade.
