Favorable climate in Hainan attracting holiday investors

More people from the mainland regions eye homes in the tropical island province

The real estate industry is expected to continue to grow in Hainan, China's only tropical province, as more people look to buy holiday homes in an area with a favorable climate, said business insiders.

Wang Lu, chairman of Haikou-based Jincheng Consultancy, a real estate information provider, said: "Favorable climate and better transport links have prompted the more affluent to take a second home or holiday home in Hainan."
