The term ‘Haikou’ first appeared in the Song Dynasty, referring to a beach area at the mouth of the Nan Dujiang River, which is precisely where the old wharf is located today. Historical records indicate that the great literary figure Su Shi began his legendary journey in Hainan from this very spot when he first set foot on Qiongzhou land. As history marched forward, there were once the Haikou Old Wharf in the north and the Sanya Yazhou Port in the south, shining like two brilliant pearls, together they established a thriving maritime trade network. Today, the Haikou Old Wharf stands like a dazzling pearl on the modern Maritime Silk Road, becoming a unique window for Haikou’s exchange and dialogue with the world.
