Ocean Flower Island, an enormous artificial island off the coast of China’s southernmost province of Hainan, is set to fully open on schedule in late 2020. The controversial project is the world’s largest man-made tourist island isle, covering about 800 hectares (1,980 acres) or 1.5 times bigger than Dubai’s Palm Island, earning it the nickname “Dubai of China”.
