2024-02-10
On February 17th, the 14th National Winter Games will kick off in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. Coinciding with the New Year of the Dragon, the land of Inner Mongolia is filled with a strong New Year flavor. When the "Chinese Red" in the streets and alleys collides with the "Ice and Snow White" in the 14th Winter, the rich and colorful ice and snow season activities are unfolding in various places, and the enthusiasm of the masses for ice and snow sports gradually heats up, moving towards the "boiling point". Appreciating ice sculptures, skating on ice ladders, watching penguin races, interacting with alpacas... A recent snowfall has transformed Hohhot into a dreamy fairy tale world, with temperatures approaching minus 20 degrees Celsius, unable to stop the enthusiasm of citizens and tourists to enjoy ice and snow. "The popularity of ice and snow tourism in Hohhot is very high this year," said Yang Fan, the person in charge of Inner Mongolia Capital Cultural Tourism Development Co., Ltd. Since the opening of the Hohhot Happy Ice and Snow Festival on January 12 at the Daheihe Military Cultural Park, the total number of tourists has exceeded 35000 within 10 days, achieving a revenue of 2 million yuan, far exceeding the same period level. During this ice and snow season, a total of 115 winter ice and snow tourism activities have been carried out in various parts of Inner Mongolia, which have become popular and frequently searched. Inner Mongolia has abundant ice and snow resources. Thanks to the hosting of the 14th Winter Festival, many people have been living a life of relying on snow to eat snow. In Hongxin Village, Juli Town, Keerqin Right Wing Front Banner, Xing'an League, this small mountain village with only a population of over 800 has seized the "golden ice and snow period" and built a snow village ski resort at the village entrance. It has also launched winter study tours, affordable tickets for the benefit of the people, and other activities in a timely manner, attracting a total of 100000 "ice and snow enthusiasts" from all over the country. "The ski resort can bring 30000 yuan in dividend income to the village collective every year, and can also drive more than 30 villagers to find employment. The village's agricultural and sideline products have also found sales, with an income of up to 100000 yuan," said Li Yinghui, the secretary of the Hongxin Village Party Branch. Organize a meeting well, elevate a city, and make competitions the "runway" of the city. Standing on the Dongshan Plateau in Hailar District, Hulunbuir City, looking out, the "14th Winter" main venue, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region Ice Sports Training Center, is like a Hada held in the palm of the hand or a auspicious cloud floating in the air, standing on the vast snow, becoming a new landmark that this border city is proud of. In recent years, the infrastructure construction of various cities hosting sports events in Inner Mongolia has deepened, and the urban security and management capabilities have greatly improved. This ice and snow festival has become an opportunity for various regions to improve the quality of cities. As the first large-scale comprehensive winter event held in China after the Beijing Winter Olympics, "14th Winter" is the largest and most comprehensive national winter sports event in history. During the preparation process of the competition, the infrastructure construction of ice and snow sports in various parts of Inner Mongolia has also taken a big step forward, and the dividends of the ice and snow industry continue to benefit the people. Before the opening of the 14th Winter Festival, the main venue and various sub venues of the same competition style venues and tracks were continuously open to the public, allowing ice and snow sports enthusiasts to enjoy high-quality snow and professional facilities. As of now, Inner Mongolia has a total of 122 ice and snow sports venues with an area of 3.906 million square meters, including 79 ice skating rinks and 43 ski resorts, and receives nearly 4 million people annually. Skiing, ice skating and other sports require high levels of physical balance and coordination from participants, which makes many "sports novices" hesitant
