Hainan was established as early as the Han Dynasty (110 BC) with two counties: Zhu Ya and Daner; The Tang Dynasty became an important transfer station on the Maritime Silk Road. Su Dongpo, a renowned literary giant of the Song Dynasty, served as an official in Danzhou, spreading the culture of Central Plains. He composed over 170 poems and more than 160 articles of various types, leaving behind the far-reaching Dongpo culture. During the Ming Dynasty, historical figures such as Hai Rui and Qiu Jun emerged in large numbers, and Qiongzhou Prefecture City (now Haikou) became the regional political center.

In 2018, a free trade port was built to create a new highland for China's opening up to the outside world.
