I think there’s no better way to plunge into Chinese daily life than visiting a wet market, although foreigners might find it a raw and visceral experience. Sanya’s market is better than most, for the fresh seafood. There are only a few creatures I can identify, most of them still alive. You can buy some, and ask your hotel to recommend a restaurant that will prepare your catch for you.
