Boao Thermal Resort is located in Boao Town in Qionghai City on Hainan's eastern coast, a small fishing village that has been dramatically transformed since 2001 into the permanent home of the Boao Forum for Asia, China's premier high-level international dialogue conference sometimes described as Asia's Davos, where heads of state, business leaders, and policy makers gather annually to discuss Asian economic development and global affairs in a setting of tropical island luxury. The forum site occupies a scenic peninsula at the confluence of three rivers meeting the South China Sea, creating a visually spectacular setting of waterways, sea breezes, and coconut groves that has been developed into an elite conference resort campus with international hotel infrastructure. The geothermal spring facilities here combine Hainan's natural volcanic heritage with the contemporary wellness culture expected by the diplomatic and business elite who gather at Boao, offering thermal bathing in a setting where global affairs and tropical island relaxation coexist in uniquely Hainanese fashion.
