Wuzhi Mountain City
Wuzhi Mountain City is a county-level city in Hainan Province. It is situated in the southern central part of Hainan Island.
Its Chinese name is 五指山. “五” means five, “指” means finger, and “山” means mountain. So the direct translation in English is "Five Fingers Mountain".
As the English translation implies, there is a mountain that resembles five fingers within the territory of Wuzhi Mountain City.
The mountain divides Hainan Island into two parts: the southern part and the northern part. These two parts have different weather in winter.
During winter, the area north of Wuzhi Mountain is typically cloudy, rainy, and colder, while the area south of Wuzhi Mountain is sunny and warm.
Since Wuzhi Mountain City is surrounded by Wuzhi Mountain, the air in the city is regarded as the freshest on the entire island. The average annual concentration of negative oxygen ions is 5,423 per cubic centimeter, right after the Amazon Rainforest.
The average annual temperature in Wuzhi Mountain is 23.5 degrees Celsius and the average temperature each month ranges between 18.8 and 26.8 degrees Celsius.
As mentioned above, Wuzhi Mountain City is a renowned place for people to live and nourish their lives.

Wuzhi Mountain City is a county-level city in Hainan Province.
I apologize for mentioning this again, but “county-level city” is meaningless to most native English speakers because we don’t have this concept in our governments. You could say “a city that is administered at the same level as a county,” but this wouldn’t really mean much to most readers—they wouldn’t understand why this was significant to you. I would suggest telling your reader what information you expect them to glean from the fact that it’s a “county-level city,” for example, “…is a county-level city, which is important because [reason why you feel it’s worth mentioning].”
It is situated in the southern -central part of Hainan Island.
I’m not certain what you mean by “southern central”: the southern part of central Hainan, or the central part of southern Hainan?
Its Chinese name is 五指山.
“五” means five, “指” means finger, and “山” means mountain.
So the direct translation in English is "Five Fingers Mountain".
When a noun, such as “finger,” modifies another noun, the modifier is usually singular.

The phrase “nourish their lives” seems a little odd, but still understandable.

It sounds like a nice place. Is the city very crowded—densely populated?

Well, let me do my utmost to explain why I said "it is a county-level city." In China, there are numerous cities, yet they differ from one another in many aspects. For instance, Beijing, Hefei, Fuyang, and Jieshou are all referred to as "cities," but Beijing is a municipality. (The other three municipalities are Shanghai, Tianjin, and Chongqing. They are directly administered by the Chinese government and have the same administrative level as provinces.) Hefei is a prefecture-level city and also the capital of Anhui Province. It is governed by the Anhui Provincial Government. Fuyang is also a prefecture-level city and is administered by the Anhui Provincial Government. However, as it is not the capital city, it does not develop as well as Hefei. Jieshou is a county-level city. It is under the jurisdiction of the Fuyang Municipal Government and is thus relatively smaller than other cities. So when I mention that a city is a municipality, a prefecture-level city, or a county-level city, one can have an idea of its size, such as how many square kilometers of land it covers and how many people it has, without visiting the city in person.
I wanted to say "Wuzhi Mountain is situated in the ‘中南部’ of Hainan Island." So, should it be "the south-central part?"
I wanted to say "many people go to Wuzhi Mountain City to ‘养生’." I translated it as "To nourish their lives."
Not really, Wuzhi Mountain City is a small city and it doesn’t have a lot of local people. Only in winter, I guess it is crowded.
Thank you, JoeTofu, for helping me all along.

“when I mention that a city is a municipality, a prefecture-level city, or a county-level city, one can have an idea of its size, such as how many square kilometers of land it covers and how many people it has”
Ok, this is what it means to you, but not to your readers, unless they’ve lived in China for a long time or worked for a government that uses a similar system. Instead of mentioning that it’s a county-level city, I would recommend directly stating its approximate area and population. This would be much more meaningful to people who don’t know China well.
“South central part” works for 中南部.
“Wuzhi Mountain City is a small city and it doesn’t have a lot of local people. Only in winter, I guess it is crowded.”
Then I’d probably enjoy visiting it in summer. :-)
