On the evening of May 30, as the tide receded in Sanya Bay in Sanya, Hainan province, diverse forms of coral reefs were seen flourishing in the clear waters of an experimental base. This base was set up for coral restoration at the South China Sea Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
It is a corner of the "underwater rainforest" that Chen Hong, director of the institute, and his team have dedicated themselves to cultivating for many years.
