In the wider Qionghai area, a specific geographical point of reference meets broader cultural and culinary themes. The central area of Longshouyang Agricultural Park is located using approximate distances; a Hainan route brings together stops related to Jiaji duck, maritime fishing culture, and Miao traditions. For your planning, it is useful to distinguish between a single location and a thematic route.
Finding Your Bearings at Longshouyang Agricultural Park
The central area of Longshouyang Agricultural Park is on Jiaji-Bo'ao Road. From there, it is about 2 km to the urban area and about 15 km to Bo'ao Town. Both figures are approximate distances and may vary depending on the reference point. They are measured from the same starting point, the center of the park, but refer to two different destinations: the urban area and Bo'ao Town. They are therefore separate distance figures, not the direct distance between the two destinations. These figures indicate approximate spatial scale, not travel time. This gives you a concrete reference point for understanding the wider area; the culinary route offers a different, thematic perspective.
Traditions in the Wider Qionghai Area
Intangible cultural heritage themes cited in the wider Qionghai area include Qionghai Miao folk songs, Hainan Miao clothing, and the Nanhai sea route tradition. They also include the making of Ji Shi Teng Guo Zai Tang, mixed-grain coconut pastries, and Miao five-color rice, as well as Gongdao and the raising and preparation of Jiaji duck. The themes range from songs and clothing to foods, preparation techniques, and maritime heritage. Those interested in regional culture will therefore find more than a culinary perspective: Miao songs and clothing sit alongside foods, duck, and the sea route tradition. This makes it possible to place an interest in food within a broader cultural perspective that also encompasses songs, clothing, and maritime heritage.
A Culinary Route Through Hainan
A culinary itinerary through Hainan includes Jiaji Town and its Jiaji duck. It also mentions the China (Hainan) South China Sea Museum in Tanmen Town in connection with Tanmen's maritime fishing culture. The route also includes the Genglubu Museum, Paigang Village, and Jiana o Miao Village in Huishan Town, associated with Miao five-color rice and Miao embroidery. The themes thus shift from cuisine and duck to maritime culture, as well as Miao food and embroidery. This route offers a thematic look at Hainan; it is not the same as the single geographical reference point at the center of the park.
According to a route guide dated February 6, 2026, visitor activities described on Yinhai Street in Jiaji Town, known for mixed-grain products, included making mixed-grain coconut pastries and sampling various mixed-grain sweets. The route guide also mentioned a Gongdao restaurant serving Jiaji duck, where visitor activities included learning Jiaji duck cooking techniques and taking part in the “Gongdao tou fen can” ritual of sharing out the dishes. This presents two different culinary experiences side by side: preparing and tasting pastries on the one hand, and cooking and sharing duck on the other. If you plan to take part in either activity, check the latest visitor details in advance.
