The city also intensified cooperation with Beijing Sport University to promote construction of an icesnow scientific research center. Beihua University in Jilin has set up the ice-snow school to train professionals.
In the near future, the city will focus on building the Beidahu skiing town, which is expected to receive 4 million ski and tourism visits annually. It will help bring Jilin one step closer to its goal of becoming a world-class ice-snow tourist destination, local officials said.
