A 4.2-magnitude earthquake in Sanya, Hainan, shouldn't have any impact on Sanya's tourism environment. A magnitude 3.2 and 4.2 earthquake was reported to have occurred in Tianya District, Sanya City, Hainan Province in the morning and evening of August 20, 2019, and was clearly felt in Sanya City and nearby cities and counties. In fact, in the past in the past, Sanya City and nearby cities and counties have also experienced earthquakes, but they were all below magnitude 5. such as the August 13, 2018 Nanhai 3.8 magnitude, May 21, 2017 Nanhai 3.8 magnitude, 2
September 17, 2016 Guangxi Laibin 4.1 magnitude, November 22, 2015 Guangdong Xuwen 4.0 magnitude earthquakes, etc., indicating that the annual average level of seismic activity in this region is about 4 magnitude . This means that a few magnitude 3 to 4 earthquakes in and around Hainan Island are part of the ebb and flow of regional seismic activity. Generally speaking, the location of earthquakes of magnitude less than 5 has a greater degree of randomness, which means that small and medium-sized earthquakes can occur in any place. Sanya Yazhou 1982 had a magnitude 4 earthquake,
Sanya is located in the Lingshui to Dongfang regional seismicity has been a few relatively active, so Sanya decades do not quake shows that the accumulation of some of the energy, and now quake quake is not surprising. This time the same place in succession, the first small after the big earthquake situation is rare, but in 2001, 2004 Lingshui offshore, 1992, 1995 Oriental offshore had a similar phenomenon.
Another external, Sanya is located in the nine - Lingshui fault zone of seismic activity is not strong,
History of the largest earthquake of 5, Sanya City, the national standard on the basis of the requirement to raise one degree in accordance with the basic intensity of the 7 degrees for anti-seismic measures, the Sanya City of the fortification building can be The city's fortified buildings can withstand earthquakes of more than magnitude 5.
So this 4.2 magnitude earthquake in Sanya, Hainan, on the Sanya environment or Sanya's tourism has not had much impact.
