As the Chinese Lunar New Year is approaching, it is time to enjoy winter sports. Spurred on by the Beijing 2022 Olympic Winter Games, Chinese people's enthusiasm for skiing is growing. Located at the heart of the Qinling Mountains in northwest China's Shaanxi Province, Aoshan Ski Resort attracted over 230,000 tourists last snow season, which was roughly three times higher than those in 2016, the first year of its operation.
Skiing equipment is an important part of the winter sports industry, and the increase in sales is accompanied by faster skiing equipment logistics, which has made it more convenient for skiing enthusiasts to transfer from one resort to another. Booming skiing equipment logistics has also helped more local people find relevant jobs and boosted rural revitalization in China.
