Qiongzhong
Qiongzhong is the county at the middle of the island. Its own page calls it the heart of Hainan. It is a Li and Miao autonomous county, and the profile says the Nandu, Changhua and Wanquan rivers all rise here.
Rivers and ridges
The profile counts 52 peaks above 1,000 m. Limu, whose main peak the forest page gives as 1,412 m, is in this county. Baihualing is the other rainforest name visitors meet.
A cross-shaped expressway through the center is still a plan on the transport page. Do not book a rail station that the county profile does not list.
How to arrive
The middle highway runs through the county from the northeast toward the southwest. The seat is a road town between Haikou and the highlands. Allow a car from the nearest coast station rather than a same-day out-and-back from the beach.
