That figure is expected to keep growing following the unveiling by the State Council of an ambitious plan to transform the ice and snow economy into a new economic driver, targeting a market size of 1.2 trillion yuan ($164.8 billion) by 2027, and 1.5 trillion yuan by 2030.

Destinations are increasingly promoting the integration of winter tourism with sports and local culture to add excitement to the traveler experience.
