The Changchun Ice and Snow World is a new attraction for those looking for some fun in a cool environment. A 21-meter-high Olympic torch building and a 420-meter-long slide, both made from ice and snow, are awaiting certification from the Guinness World Records as the world's highest building of its kind and the longest slide, respectively. Built with more than 300,000 cubic meters of ice and snow, the 1.08-million-square-meter park is the first of its kind large-scale winter park in the province. "Thanks to the 2022 Winter Olympics, we believe Jilin's ice and snow industry will achieve fast growth, and Jilin will be a world-class ice and snow tourism destination," says Bayin Chaolu, Party secretary of the province. With the approaching of the 2022 Winter Olympics, which will be hosted in Beijing and Zhangjiakou of Hebei province, the government has introduced various measures to encourage "300 million people to join in ice and snow sports".
