Beijing is a good place to spend the winter vacation, especially during the Chinese new year, an annual celebration for Chinese.
In 2022, Beijing has a chance to present the traditional Chinese culture to the athletes.
"If we succeed in the bidding, we will invite athletes from all over the world to take part in an Olympic Games along the Great Wall, and that will definitely be a special experience," said Wang Hui, head of communications of the Beijing 2022 Bid Committee.
"Chinese new year is a treasure of Chinese culture, which became an important festival thousands of years ago. Beijing plans to present that to athletes and the Olympics.
"Beijing will make special contribution to the Olympics through that," Wang added.
Athlete experience is always considered as an important part of Beijing's bid for 2022 Winter Games. The Great Wall, the Spring Festival will become special experience of athletes, and Beijing prepares much more than that.
"Convenience for the athletes is the primary criterion for Beijing 2022," said Beijing 2022 in the candidature file for the bid.
"Games-standard services will be provided in areas including training, competition, transport, accommodation, food and beverage, healthcare and cultural exchange, in order to assist athletes to achieve their best performances and fulfil their dreams."
Paralympic Winter Games will be provided with barrier-free facilities and services according to the standards of the International Paralympic Committee (IPC).
The Organizing Committee will attach importance to the services to the Olympic Family, the media, the broadcasters, the spectators, the sponsors and all other client groups. Beijing 2022 will provide all client groups with unforgettable Olympic experiences.
The three-zone design of the Olympic villages is aimed to provide the best convenience for athletes.
"The three Olympic villages are close to the competition venues, and the commission is confident they would provide an excellent environment," said the IOC in the evaluation commission report.
Beijing promised to complete the construction of all the venues early enough for any tests and training before the Games, and also vowed to take care of the athletes' experience in all possible areas such as Olympics villages, award ceremony and cultural activities.
"As a former athlete, I fully understand the importance of athlete experience," said Yang Yang, China's first Winter Olympics gold medalist.
"We will pay every attention to promoting the athlete experience, before, during and after the Games," Yang added.
If Beijing 2022 wins the honor of hosting the Games, the team plans to quickly establish an Athletes' Commission involving athletes from every sport on the Winter Olympics program, which will help ensure that all athletes' needs are fully met.
Two-time Olympic medallist and three-time world champion Li Nina, ambassador for Beijing's 2022 Winter Olympics bid, believes that Beijing would provide a truly athlete-centered Winter Olympics if it wins the bid.
Li shared her favorite Olympic memories with a group of college students in Beijing and talked about her involvement as ambassador in Beijing's bid for the 2022 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games. She explained what hosting an "athlete-centered" Olympics means to her, and how Beijing 2022 will make sure that all athletes' needs are fully met.
"When it comes to preparing an environment that allows athletes to compete in their best condition, few understand it at the level that the actual athletes do. Fortunately, the Beijing 2022 team understands this, which is why they have brought myself and fellow members of Chinese team on board since the very beginning to provide suggestions on how to provide a truly athlete-centered Winter Olympics," said Li, who is dubbed the "Snow Princess".
