Sanya has been called the ends of the earth since ancient times, because it is far away from the imperial capital and lonely overseas. It used to be the bedroom of Emperor Yangdi, and it was also the place where the great monks of the Tang Dynasty drifted ashore to give lectures. During the Tang and Song Dynasties, seven famous ministers demoted Sanya to the Song, Yuan and Ming Dynasties. Sanya's economy has developed initially, and the cotton spinning industry is in a leading position in the country.
