History


Wanning (万宁) first got its current name during the Southern Song Dynasty, after being renamed from Wan'an (万安县). Wanning was later renamed back to Wan'an again in 1143 until its name was changed to Wanzhou (万州) in 1370, but subsequently reverted to its present name after the Communist takeover in the 1950s. It was promoted from a county to a city on August 5, 1996.


Economy


Tourism plays a vital role in the city. Famous for its tropical scenery, Wanning proper lies approximately half an hour's drive from the beach and has several five-star hotels. The city of Wanning produces coffee, black pepper, rubber, rice, bananas, and sugarcane.


Transportation


Wanning is served by the Wanning Railway Station, part of the Hainan East Ring Intercity Rail.


Climate


Wanning is hot most of the year. At times it can become cold with temperatures between 5 and 8 degrees Celsius.
