According to the government statistics, the tourist income of Jilin has maintained 25 percent growth for six consecutive years.

During the Spring Festival, Jilin earned almost 10 billion yuan in revenue from tourism businesses, 28 percent higher than the same period last year.

Visitor numbers amounted to 10.68 million, growing over 20 percent year-on-year.

"As the 2022 Winter Olympic in Beijing and Zhangjiakou is approaching, Jilin is going to take advantage of the ice industry as a new business growth engine, promoting the transformation and upgrading of the old industrial bases in China's northeastern region," said Yang Andi, director of the Jilin Tourism Development Commission.
