Rocket launches in Hainan are no longer just for scientists – they’re the hottest ticket in travel! 🌟 This year, over 500,000 visitors have flocked to Wenchang’s coastal viewing spots to witness spacecraft blast off, turning the tropical island into a must-see destination for both space geeks and beach lovers.
🔥 The boom is fueling Hainan’s Free Trade Port development, with hotels offering "launch packages" and local cafes renaming drinks after satellites (try the Milky Way Mocha!). "It’s like Coachella, but with rockets," said 24-year-old travel vlogger Priya Singh, who live-streamed a recent launch to her 1M followers.
🚀 With three more missions scheduled before 2026 – including a crewed lunar flyby – officials predict tourism revenue could reach ¥10 billion this year. Pro tip: Book early for December’s Chang’e-8 launch. The best views? Coconut Bay Beach at sunset. 🌅
