Upon completion, the bridge will also be integrated into the operating system of Shimao Ski Resort which in turn will become a multi-dimensional destination for sightseeing, leisure, entertainment, vacation and adventure. 

 

About Mt. Lianhua Shimao Ski Resort: 

 

In 2018, Shimao Group invested on the upgrading and transformation of Mt. Lianhua Ski Resort. One year after Shimao Group entered Changchun City, Mt. Lianhua Shimao Ski Resort was officially opened to the public, with a POMA detachable ropeway, the first of its kind imported from France, put in use. 

 

The resort covers an area of about six square kilometers, covering professional slopes and national level diving platforms. It has successively hosted seven editions of “Freestyle Aerial Skills World Cup” sponsored by FIS. It is a comprehensive ski resort integrating public skiing and athletic competitions. With such advantages in being within a distance of going and coming back to town in a day and suitable for skiers at all levels, Shimao Ski Resort is en route to “the first stop for skiing in China”. 

 

In addition to skiing, the resort is indeed friendly to tourists in four seasons, namely, sightseeing in spring, water park in summer, mountaineering in autumn and snow games in winter. There are a series of non-snow season leisure and entertainment experience projects for the public such as parent-child agricultural garden, water park, adult orientation, nature school, snow slope and flower sea. At present, Ecosign, a company from Canada, has completed the overall planning according to which Shimao Group will invest some RMB10 billion to build a huge tourism complex integrating low-density residence, five-star hotel, business street, B&B, catering and entertainment.
