chinA true champion behind China’s drive for building a sporting powerhouse( 三 )


Nowadays this mountainous town, where most of the snow events will be staged during the 2022 Winter Olympics, has seen a boom in skiing tourism in recent years. Thanks to the Beijing-Zhangjiakou high-speed rail link which went into operation at the end of 2019, a four-hour drive has been cut to a 50-minute train ride to travel from Beijing to Chongli for skiing.
In May 2019, Chongli was officially lifted out of poverty. Nearly 30,000 of its 126,000 population are employed by ski resorts or related companies and organizations.

"The Winter Olympics can help raise people's awareness of skiing," said Wang Xinhua, a chef at Thaiwoo Ski Resort in Chongli.
"With these 300 million people engaging in winter sports, we can clearly say the history of winter sports will be one before Beijing 2022 and one after the Winter Games in Beijing," commented Bach.
