Spanning around 80,000 square meters, the indoor ski resort features eight slopes of varying gradients, with a maximum vertical drop of 80 meters. It"s the perfect venue for skiers of all skill levels. Thanks to its year-round temperature control and snow-making systems, ski training and recreation are no longer limited by the weather outside.

　　"We are committed to making winter sports accessible all year round, creating all-season, all-age ice-and-snow experiences," said Song Guangxu, who is in charge of the resort. In addition to daily operations and ski instruction, the facility also helps sustain visitor flows by hosting professional competitions, family-oriented events and public ice-and-snow experience programs.

　　These indoor ice-and-snow projects are weaving themselves into Harbin"s broader summer tourism market, fueling a travel boom during the peak season. Travel platform data shows that flight bookings from major cities across the country to the "Ice City" have surged since late June, driven by a combination of graduation trips and family summer getaways, with young travelers making up a significant share of the city"s summer visitors.

　　Li Zhuomin, deputy director of the Harbin municipal bureau of culture, radio, television and tourism, said the city is building a more stable year-round supply of ice-and-snow products through projects such as indoor theme parks, ice-art exhibitions and indoor ski resorts.

　　China"s ice-and-snow economy exceeded 1 trillion yuan (about 147 billion U.S. dollars) in 2025, according to a report released this year by the China Tourism Academy. Indoor ice-and-snow complexes have become one of the most active investment categories in the sector, further breaking down the climatic and seasonal constraints on ice-and-snow consumption.
