THE SIGHTS OF SANYA UNFOLD FOR MISS WORLD

The many wonders of Sanya were explored by the Miss World contestants, as they toured some of the region’s sites and beauty spots.

The scenic Phoenix Mountain Park and the lush green Yalong Bay Rainforest were two of the first stops on the sightseeing trip, with the contestants walking through the trees and fields of ferns to get a feel for the natural beauty of the Hainan city’s parklands.

At Luohuitou Deer Looking Back Park, the girls had a wonderful view across Sanya. They heard how the name Luohuitou is derived from a love story. A long time ago, a tyrant emperor desired a pair of deer horns, so he forced a young man named Ahei to hunt for deer on the mountainous areas. When Ahei was hunting, he saw a beautiful spotted deer chased by a panther. He shot the panther with his arrow and ran after the deer for nine days and nine nights. After passing ninety-nine hills, they arrived at the Coral Cliff of Sanya. The deer found no way to escape except jumping into the sea while the hunter was pulling his bow to shoot. Suddenly it turned its head back and changed into a beautiful girl walking towardsthe hunter. Of course, the hunter and the girl fell in love and married.

A charming park has been built on the top of Luhuitou and a huge sculpture 12 metres high depicts the moving legend. Sanya is also nicknamed "Deer City".

Zambia commented: “It is worthwhile coming to theLuohuitou Deer Looking Back Park, as the view is spectacular. There are so many fishing boats in Sanya harbour, which makes it very picturesque.

The contestants also visited the stunning World’s End, with its imposing rocks jutting out of the shoreline. They posed for photographs with media and tourists before one final stop at the Sanya Duty Free shop to see some of the luxury items available for purchase on departure from the island.

The contestants then headed back to the Crowne Plaza Sanya for rehearsals to prepare for Saturday’s Chinese Fashion Show at the hotel.

NORWAY WINS TOP MODEL AND FAST-TRACKS TO MISS WORLD FINAL


Norway has won the third guaranteed place in the Miss World 2010 Final, joining Puerto Rico and Norway’s room-mate Northern Ireland in the top 25 of the 60th Anniversary Final.

At a dazzling fashion show with designs from renowned Chinese designers and hosted by the Huayu Group, the girls displayed their high fashion credentials. The Chinese-inspired show was choreographed and directed by the team behind the magnificent opening of the Beijing Olympic Games.

The quality of the contestants made it a difficult contest to judge but Norway came away with the title of Miss World Top Model. As well as the joy of winning, this title comes with a trophy and automatically guarantees a place in the top 25 of Miss World 2010.


“I really can’t believe I’ve been chosen best model out of so many wonderful girls here,’ said Norway. “It’s a great honour for me and, of course, I’m delighted to be in the top 25. Now I can look forward to the Final.”


Ultimately, it was Norway who walked away with the award, leaving Russia and United States as first and second runners up.

The gardens of the Crowne Plaza Sanya, home to Miss World in China, formed the spectacular background to this year’s fashion show, which also provided judges with chance to decide on the Miss World Top Designer Award. Contestants competed for this prestigious award by showing off creations from up-an-coming as well as established fashion designers in their own countries, to celebrate the beauty of women from around the world.


This year standards were particularly high, making it challenging for the judging panel to pick the dress that, in their eyes, most epitomises today’s high fashion. Many countries were keen to win this year’s designer award and had made sure they showed the best their country has to offer.

After the girls had shown their dresses at their very best, the judging panel announced a shortlist of twenty dresses, from which the final three were selected. Out of these remaining hopefuls the winning dress was announced as from French Polynesia, by a designer, Nelson.
