While in China I liked to take pictures of people on streets most of all: street food stalls, chinese life unknown to me and just passers by. This is a bunch of children in a village, not too far away from my first guesthouse.

This is typical local autorichshaw. It's made differently in each every country, see yourself.

Chinese cyclists weal builder helmets for safety. Well, I am just joking, it's just one of the kind.

Sole autorickshaw and bored owner of a small shop. It's village!

And this is street of Sanya itself, life is much more lively there.

This sight made me remember Malaysia that I've just arrived from. Generally there is almost no muslims here.

Selling something like cartoons.

Grilled meat and sausages.

It's delicious!

A cigarette stall. But no matter how I tried to explain to the chinese that I need light cigarettes, the lightest they have, I did not succeed. That's why I had to give up smoking. But the packs are sometimes very beautiful, it's even a pity that they are totally not tasty. But nothing can be sweet enough after nicest indonesian cigarettes. Only Captain Black maybe and fruit hookah which are, of course, not available here.

Eggs strangely made. I like asian cuisine a lot but still there are some things which I do not accept at all no matter how I try to taste them. All the local ways of cooking eggs are among those. These look like salty.

This is just an ordinary street cafe. Chicken rise is the most common and neutral dish.

This is street beauty saloon, eyebrows are shaped with special kind of a thread.

Simple a girl sitting at a table which looks like modified old foot-operated sewing machine.

Just two chinese women.

A beautiful girl on a motorbike!

I sat down to rest and think on stairs of a some narrow small street. The beautiful girl was on the left and something totally opposite was on the right.

Street snooker, american style is very common leisure here.

This is dandy young chinese man and grandpa looking with quite a disapproval.

Two more dandies.

This is chinese pampers. Many of you must have heard about tibetian pampers of exactly this type but it seems to be general chinese style. It's quire warm in Hainan, even hot but I was truly amazed to see a winter suit made in same style in much colder Guilin...

Cutting fish at one of distant streets.

Small street cafes are one of options to eat in China. You can get twenty kinds of noodles there which is prepared just when you order. This is my friend's lunch being stretched.

And this is my own lunch being cut.

These are waitresses from a bigger place. Most probably they would soon set up table and start working.

This is woman in hay hat going shopping by her own means of transportation. Or also this can be some food stall which just finished working or just about to start to work.

Here I liked a window and hieroglyphs and also local man. Unfortunately he noticed me little bit faster than my lens managed to zoom and focus.

This was Sanya. If somebody is aware of chinese geography or lists of russian tourists' most popular places to rest then the question would be asked: where is sea and beaches? This story is of people only and so the only photo with sea in it I would show is one of chinese homeless man with his stuff on the shore.
