As the Beijing 2022 Winter Olympic Games approaches, the construction of sports venues for the Games moves steadily forward. As the only winter sports outdoor venue in downtown Beijing, the Big Air Shougang has attracted the world's attention with its unique design and beautiful colors.
Taking the opportunity of the Games, Shougang Park, where the Big Air is located, has completed its transformation and upgrade. Many of the industrial sites have added new functions for the Games while maintaining original industrial elements, turning the obsolete industrial plant area into a cultural and creative, and industrial tourism attraction.
On December 9, Shougang Park welcomed a group of international social media influencers from Colombia, Croatia, Egypt, France, Italy, Switzerland, South Africa, UK and the U.S., who were excited about the city of Beijing holding both Summer and Winter Olympic Games.
The visit to this internet-famous park was part of their Day-2 agenda of the 2020 Silk Road Rediscovery Tour of Beijing's New Development, sponsored by Information Office of Beijing Municipality and organized by CRI Online of China Media Group.
You may easily feel the gorgeous shift of Shougang Park through the lens of Eric Marie Favreliere, a French photographer visiting Beijing.
