Many venues plan to open to the public before May 1, and there are also venues like Ice Cube, which are planned to open on April 4. It will be open to the public this month.”

  "I think the venues of the Beijing Winter Olympics and Paralympics belong not only to athletes, but also to everyone who loves sports," she said.

Various forms of subsequent use

  According to Yan Jiarong, the first use of the venues after the game is to actively bid for and hold high-level events. Relevant departments and owners have reached framework agreements with the World Curling Federation, the International Snowmobile Federation, etc., and actively cooperate with the International Snow Federation, International Winter The two alliances negotiated to bid for the World Cup and other international professional events.

  Taking the National Snowmobile Center as an example, the track has pre-designed and built a starting point for teenagers to train teenagers to slide; a public experience starting point is set up on the north side of the 380-degree spiral bend, reducing the vertical drop of the track from 121 meters for professional athletes to 121 meters for professional athletes. More than 40 meters, although the vertical drop is reduced, it does not reduce the sliding experience, which is conducive to ensuring the safety of ordinary skiers.

  Some ice and snow sports events are relatively small in China, and the number of participants is small. The relevant venues are also designed with this situation in mind, so that the venues take into account both serving ice and snow sports and integrating into people's daily activities.

For example, the summit club of "Xue Ruyi" has a multi-functional space, and the overhanging part can be used for more tourists to stroll and travel; the back end can hold meetings, forums, exhibitions and other gathering activities.

Winter Olympics Legacy Serves Citizens

  In 2008, the uniquely designed "Water Cube" stunned the world at the Beijing Olympics. 14 years later, the "Water Cube" transformed itself into an "Ice Cube" and once again became the focus of the world's attention.

The legacy of the Beijing Olympics is blessed with the Beijing Winter Olympics, and in the future, the legacy of the Beijing Winter Olympics will also play an important role.

  For ordinary citizens, the benefits of the Winter Olympics legacy are tangible.

According to media reports, in the post Winter Olympics era, youth sports clubs will be established in Wukesong venues to carry out teaching and training; the Capital Gymnasium venues will carry out professional ice training, mass sports fitness, sports performances and other activities.

  And some new venues are designed to serve the public at the very beginning.

Li Sen, director of the overall planning department of the Beijing Winter Olympics Organizing Committee, once introduced that the ice surface of the National Speed ​​Skating Hall "Ice Ribbon" is an all-ice design of 12,000 square meters. It was originally designed to consider how to open it up to the society.

The speed skating competition mainly uses the 400-meter track in the outer ring. There will be two standard ice rinks in the core part, which can accommodate 2,000 people on the ice at the same time after the competition.

  The Beijing Winter Olympics and Winter Paralympics not only allowed the Chinese people to appreciate the charm of ice and snow sports, but also left them valuable venue resources.
