Lover's Bridge, Wuzhizhou Island

蜈支洲岛情人桥

Lover's Bridge is an important filming location for "Private Tailor". It was originally a cable bridge and was the sea lookout point for the island garrison troops.
Some tourists want to cross the bridge to the viewing point to experience it, but are afraid of falling into the sea, so they hold on to their friends' hands tightly when crossing the bridge, so this bridge is also nicknamed the "Lover's Bridge".
Later, for the safety of guests, the original iron chain bridge was transformed into the current wooden plank bridge. This place is still the most desirable place for couples.
There is also a pair of lovely statues and a seat for taking photos at the beginning of the bridge. Don’t miss it if you go there.

http://www.mafengwo.cn/i/20670085.html From my travel notes "❤️Summer is here, write poetry on the seaside❤️The most tranquil small-group tour in Sanya (Houhai Queen's Bay, Wuzhizhou Island, Phoenix Island, West Island)"



I make a wish on the warmest day, may lovers have the same sky in the morning and the same moon in the evening.



May the love in everyone's heart be like a long stream, flowing with the waves, immortal with poetry and the distance, holding hands with your lover, and traveling together across thousands of rivers and mountains.

It feels very ordinary, nothing special, just a big name

By Scholar's spirit |

A tourist attraction on Wuzhizhou Island and also an important check-in spot.

By Misaki |

The beach on Wuzhizhou Island is very nice, with white sand, but it was a pity that I went there alone.

By Bai Hongzhi |

The most beautiful scenic spot in Hainan, Wuzhizhou Lover's Island. The weather is particularly good today, with blue sky and white clouds. We took a boat to Wuzhizhou Island!

By MIKA |

This bridge is really a bit of a pit, not as good as the picture

By Fish flower |

Lover's Bridge is an important filming location for the Lunar New Year film "Private Tailor". It was originally a cable bridge and was the sea lookout point for the island garrison troops at that time.

By Qin Xiaoyang |

A small bridge plus a pavilion. I heard that it was a cable bridge before, so it should be more distinctive. It may not be too ordinary now.

By Hao Lang |

It's not a special attraction, there's no need to come here specially, and I don't know where the name comes from. It's just a bridge across the river, but as a bridge in the city, it's nice to blow the wind on it at night.

By Super Jing Jing Jing ✨ |

The Lover's Bridge was not located in this position before. It was moved to the direction of the pier so that tourists can see it as soon as they arrive on the island. There are several props in front of the bridge that are very suitable for taking photos.

By Big Bad Wolf |

An important filming location for "Private Tailor", it was originally a chain bridge. Later, for the safety of the guests, the original chain bridge was transformed into the current wooden bridge.

By cabap7 |

As one of the most famous attractions on Wuzhizhou Island, the Lover's Bridge has carried the dreams of countless lovers and witnessed countless couples on their way to happiness.

By Good people live a peaceful life |

It's a very beautiful place. It's easy to take beautiful photos. It's just crowded, but the water quality is very good!

By Item million |

It's just a gimmick of Wuzhizhou Island. People taking pictures blocked the way to the bridge.

By Moe Adult |

Check in at Lover's Bridge ~ There weren't many people there in mid-March, and the panoramic view we took had almost no people.

By Autumn Shadow |

Passing through a culvert and along the seashore, the Lover's Bridge is not far away. There are also many foot-washing pools on the island, which is also a major feature. It is very close to the summer pier.

By benglulu |

The Lover's Bridge is a nice sight on Wuzhizhou Island. Get up early to take pictures. There are few people and the scenery is beautiful, which is very artistic.

By ✾Jieyou Palace |

The wind was super strong. Fortunately, I was fat at that time, so I was not blown away by the sea breeze. Hahaha

By XXX |

The first spot to check in and take photos on Wuzhizhou Island!!

By Watch. "Sorrow" |

The sea and sky are still quite beautiful and moving.

By Ants moving |

This is an important filming location for the Lunar New Year film "Personal Tailor". It was originally a chain bridge, which was the sea lookout point for the island guarding troops. Walking on the chain bridge is shaky and requires some courage and cleverness. Some ladies wanted to cross the bridge to the lookout point to experience it, but were afraid of falling into the sea, so they held their friends' hands tightly when crossing the bridge, so this bridge was nicknamed "Lover's Bridge". Later, for the safety of the guests, the original chain bridge was transformed into the current wooden plank bridge. This place is still a place that couples yearn for.

By Table evening |

It's very beautiful to take pictures here~ blue sky, white clouds, red railings~~

By Dong Yinuo_DYN |

It's suitable for couples, but we also went up and it was nice to watch the sea in the pavilion!

By Happy Child |

There was no sunshine when I went there, so I couldn't see the heart shape reflected on the bridge.

By 🎈Anne |

It was already five o'clock when I came out of the private booking area. The last boat was at half past five, so I didn't go to the Lover's Bridge. I saw it from a distance, but there was nothing special.

By Listen to the sound of the sea |

Lover's Bridge is a wooden plank road, and it is beautiful for taking photos.

By make a sightseeing tour |

On Wuzhizhou Island, there used to be a small wooden bridge, but now it has been repaired firmly. People who went there to play took photos and checked in. May the love of lovers in the world last forever.

By Carol |

One of the landmarks of Wuzhizhou Island. I just passed by and watched it from a distance.

By Soup |

This is the most beautiful sea view you can see in Sanya. It feels like you are on an island vacation.

By Snow |

Lover's Bridge is one of the attractions on Wuzhizhou Island. It has a strong romantic feeling and is suitable for couples to take photos here.

By  🍼Se7en 🍭 |

It's really hard to take photos when there are too many people. There are two lovers at Qiaoqiantou

By ┄ˇ |

A must-visit place on the island. Many people take photos on the bridge, and it is not easy to take a good photo.

By Xian Dasheng |

This place is OK, with white sandy beaches. It is also nice to buy the most expensive electric car and rest on the beach for an hour.

By Lulu |

I was attracted by the name, but it is actually just a bridge. There is a cartoon at the entrance where you can take photos.

By 閬中de趙先生 |

There were too many tourists taking photos here, so I took a quick photo.

By 💋momo_someone |

A good place for couples to take photos. The seaside scenery is particularly beautiful, but there are too many tourists on weekdays, and there are people everywhere... Because I live on the island, I always wait for tourists to leave the island before going out to take photos

By Judynini |

I went to Wuzhizhou Island with great expectations, but I felt it was just average after I got there. I don't know if it was because it rained the day before, but the water was not clear. It was much worse than Nanshan Temple. The Lover's Bridge was so short.

By Double |

I'm tired. There's nothing in the garden. It's extremely boring.

By Zi Xiaogang_BG6FFV |

This scenic spot will be included in the weather forecast after the CCTV News Broadcast.

By An An Little Pig |

Usually when you pass by, the tour guide will let your family sit on the bow and take a photo. Love will eventually get married.

By lins |

To be honest, the biggest reason for me to want to go to Wuzhizhou Island is because I saw the photo of the Lover's Bridge. The red bridge and the light blue water are a perfect match. The Lover's Bridge in real life is as beautiful as in the photo.

By kkhzc |

Enter Wuzhizhou Island, walk to the right and you will see the Coral Hotel, then walk straight and you will see the Lover's Bridge

By Niu Niu dances ballet |

It's a beautiful feeling. Wuzhizhou Island is really clean. I want to come again next time and I must stay overnight.

By Still today |

A pavilion in the sea on Wuzhizhou Island, well built and beautiful

By Eve |

Later, for the safety of the guests, the original chain bridge was transformed into the current wooden plank bridge. This is still the most desirable place for couples.

By Xia Xiaoluo |

To be honest, it's a rip-off. The whole Wuzhizhou Island is a rip-off. The whole island is full of traces of man-made things, and there is nothing left by nature.

The Lover's Bridge is on the right hand side when you first step onto Wuzhizhou Island. It is not as beautiful as the pictures show. It is just a bridge with a pavilion at the end of the bridge.

The only thing that attracts people is probably its name and the story told about it.

Wuzhizhou Island is full of lover elements, including the Lover's Bridge and the "I Love You" sign written in various languages ​​on Wuzhizhou Island.

I didn't even go up the bridge, I just looked at it from a distance, and when I saw it, I didn't have the slightest desire. I was extremely disappointed.

By Xiapu Linsheng |

The Lover's Bridge on Wuzhizhou Island should be regarded as just a gimmick. The scenery is already beautiful, and it seems unnecessary to force a love story into it.

By Yababy |

I stayed in Wuzhizhou and walked around in the morning. There were almost no people near the Lover's Bridge. It was a good opportunity to take pictures of the beautiful scenery. Great photos, I like them very much.

By Cinnabar Sugar_Hehe |

Sanya Wuzhizhou Island is very beautiful and worth a visit.

By Playing in the mud since childhood |

Overall, it's just so-so, not as good as expected.

By Sunny Mommy |

Many couples come here to take wedding photos. When I went there, I stayed on Wuzhizhou Island for one night. After all the tourists left the island, there was less noise here, which better reflected its original beauty.

By The Call of the Wolf |

Standing on the bridge and looking at the sea, the fish are swimming comfortably and the clear sea water reflects the sunlight.

By Xiang Xiaopei |

The scenery is great, the only regret is that I didn't go to the Lover's Bridge with my lover. I hope I won't be alone next time...

By Knowledge and Action |

On Wuzhizhou Island, the blue sea and white sand are worth wasting your time

By K |

The Lover's Bridge is located on Wuzhizhou Island. It is a long corridor connected to a pavilion in the sea. The corridor is pretty good, with hollow hearts on it. I talked and laughed all the way on the corridor, took some photos, and walked to the pavilion. I was a little tired, so I took a break and enjoyed the sea breeze. It was very comfortable. Wuzhizhou Island is a place with better water quality in Sanya, so the scenery in this area is pretty good. The sand on the beach is very fine and soft.

By Ah Chao |

The scenery is nice, the water is clear, and many people line up to take pictures.

By Wei |

The ticket price here is 168 yuan, including 50 yuan entrance fee, 3 yuan price adjustment fund, 110 yuan round-trip boat ticket and 5 yuan price adjustment fund.

The water quality near the Lover's Bridge is very good, and you can see the fish in the water by looking down. The scenery is beautiful and there are many tourists, but there are almost no people after 3 pm. Recommended

By Small candy ice |

In fact, it is just a very small attraction, suitable for couples to take photos and show their love. They queue up to take photos and it takes about half an hour to finish the visit.

By Argentine Ants |

The water in the south is indeed bluer than that in the north. It may be due to the latitude.

By chewbey |

It's so hot, this pavilion is a good place to cool off, haha. The scenery is nice, I walked over and sat for a while.

By Kouby next door |

A landmark attraction on Wuzhizhou Island, many couples take pictures here, and it feels quite suitable for taking wedding photos here. However, there are so many people coming and going that it is very difficult to take a photo without passers-by flashing.

There are two dolls of a man and a woman at the bridge head. It is really sweet to see a couple posing like them. I really hope they can live happily together for the rest of their lives. It seems that seeing such a scene makes me feel happy.

The charm of Wuzhizhou Island lies in this. It not only has beautiful sea views, but also landscapes such as the Lover's Bridge, happy, and love, as well as pairs of happy couples and harmonious and happy families. I like this place, not only for the beautiful scenery

The Lover's Bridge stretches from the beach to the sea. If there were fewer people, it would be beautiful to take pictures.

The Lover's Bridge of Wuzhizhou Island is located on Wuzhizhou Island, 40 kilometers away from Sanya City. It is the most beautiful scenic spot on the island. It was originally a chain bridge and was the sea lookout point for the island garrison troops. The bridge is also nicknamed "Lover's Bridge". Walking on the shaky chain bridge requires some courage and cleverness. Some young ladies want to cross the bridge to the lookout point to experience it, but are afraid of falling into the sea water. When crossing the bridge, they hold their friends' hands tightly, so the bridge is also nicknamed "Lover's Bridge". The water quality near the Lover's Bridge is very good, and you can see the fish in the water by looking down.

By North Drifting Swallow |

This is a must-visit attraction in Hainan. Friends who go to Wuzhizhou will take a photo here. The blue sky, blue sea and reefs are incredibly beautiful.

By Shane_zhang |

To be honest, the Lover's Bridge is a rather boring place artificially created by Wuzhizhou Island. The scenery is not much different from the beaches in other places on Wuzhizhou Island. The main reason is that the scenery on the island is not distinctive except for the beach. In order to make the scenic area more diversified and attract more tourists, the Lover's Bridge was built. The two sculptures at the bridge head kissing are still very cute, but there are too many people here. It feels like all the tourists who come to Wuzhizhou gather here. It is difficult to take pictures because of the coming and going of people. It is recommended that you come early. If you want to take pictures here, it is best to choose to be the first one to come here, and maybe you can avoid the crowded crowd.

By Wu Shaoqing |

Morning on Wuzhizhou Island. There are few tourists, and the whole island is shrouded in the rising sun and a quiet atmosphere. Walking on the Lover's Bridge, toward the sea, with the breeze blowing on your face, the memory is unforgettable.

By Doctor |

I really like the style of Wuzhizhou Island. It allows you to spend a very comfortable day here. The environment around the hotel is undoubtedly a good recommended place.

By win |

The beach is very unique and many couples take wedding photos here. I met three couples when I went there.

By Lemon 7Up |

There are many "lover's bridges" all over the country, and this is the lover's bridge on Wuzhizhou Island in Hainan...

By Tiantian💭 |

It's a cute bridge. Many people were taking photos. There was a long queue. I took photos from a distance. Haha

By @Boxi on the road |

There is a beach next to the Lover's Bridge. It feels a bit like the cold Maldives. The sand is very fine and the water is very blue. It is very impressive.

By Sound |

It is very grand. When visiting, you have to queue up and be led in by the staff. It is said that you have to walk around it three times. There are three statues of Guanyin with three faces, and you have to worship each one.

By Brother Cai |

The Lover's Bridge is the standard bridge on Wuzhizhou Island. The sea water under the bridge is very clear and the beach is very fine and white.

By Honeycomb•Weiwei |

Very beautiful. You must go. The two statues are very beautiful.
