Bo'ao Lao Wood

Hainan


The owner of this cafe, a local dancer and art administrator, literally had a traditional old stone house taken apart and reassembled on Bo'ao’s coastal path to make his dream of opening a stylish cafe come true. Inside it's chock-full of antiques and objets d’art, while in front is a sculpture-filled garden dotted with cafe tables.
