description Hainan tropical rainforest is located in the northern edge of the tropics. It is the continental island type of tropical rainforest with the most concentrated distribution, the best preservation and the largest contiguous area in China. China central government launched the project of constructing Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park System Pilot Area. The construction of Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park System Pilot Area is regarded as an important part of the construction of National Ecological Civilization Experimental Area. This paper has explored and analyzed the path to and experiences of constructing Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park System Pilot Area from the aspects of management system, ecological protection and restoration, natural resources asset management, community involvement, exchange and education. It has found that Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park System Pilot Area has established a unified and coordinated management system by integrating and optimizing the existing nature reserves. It implements strict protection system, and carries out ecological protection and restoration, confirmation of natural resources rights, construction of community development, and establishment of science popularization and education system. The unified and coordinated management has provided a guarantee for biodiversity of major species in Hainan Province. Hainan Tropical Rainforest National Park System Pilot Area can provide valuable experiences for China National Park System Pilot Project.
