Promotional prices have been introduced to attract tourists. Yuyang Ski Resort offers free service to visitors who come before December 11 and Lianhuashan Ski Resort offers free ski gear to visitors who come before December 10. Tourists can get discounts by booking ski tickets online, according to the Beijing News.
Most ski resorts, including Jundushan Ski Resort, Nanshan Ski Village, and Shijinglong Ski Resort opened in early December, with Lianhuashan Ski Resort and Yuyang Ski Resort still in test operations.
As snowboarding gains popularity in Beijing, several ski resorts, such as Huabei Ski Resort and Yuyang Ski Resort, have set up separate areas especially for snowboarding enthusiasts. Snowboarding has become more and more popular among Beijing's young people, Luo Xiaohui, the marketing manager of Yuyang Ski Resorts, explained.
Various other winter activities like skating and ice sledging also have also found their place at these ski resorts.
However, due to the warm weather this winter, only primary and mid level ski slopes are open in most of the resorts.
Besides facilities and equipment, food varieties have also increased in some resorts. Western-style food is offered at Jundushan Ski Resort and dishes indigenous to the Yanqing district are prepared at Shijinglong Ski Resort.
