On December 23, the 2nd Dalian Jinshitan Snow Carnival kicked off at the 
Jinshitan Gold Coast Plaza. From disco dancing on snow and flames on the sea, 
to thumping electronic music party and bonfires under the starlit sky, a series 
of activities turned the Jinshitan Snow World into an ocean of merriment that 
attracts an increasing number of visitors from both China and abroad.

On the day of the opening ceremony, the fun and fancy seaside snow carnival 
started with a fantastic ice and snow parade, and the cheerful and dreamy doll 
performance Debut of Snowmen further elevated the ambience and excited the 
on-site participants. In the evening, the venue was lit up by a lot of colorful 
lights, and live bands electrified the atmosphere with passionate performances 
that transformed the Snow World into a disco world. Thereafter, bonfires under 
the starlit sky, thumping electronic music party and spectacular fireworks show 
brought a magnificent visual and audio feast to visitors.

Jinshitan, located in the coastal city of Dalian in North China, is a 
national-level tourist resort well-known for its picturesque views, especially 
the charming beaches. To create a "round-the-clock, four-season, all-age" 
immersive tourism product, and to turn up the "heat" and "popularity" of Jinpu 
New Area during winter, Jinshitan hosted its first Snow Carnival last winter 
and received 100,000 visitors, according to Dalian Jinshitan National Tourist 
Resort Tourism Bureau.

Compared with the previous one, the 2nd Dalian Jinshitan Snow Carnival has 
received a thorough upgrade. Not only has the snowfield been expanded to 
100,000 square meters, but there has also been a complete overhaul of 
infrastructure, with the addition of new projects such as ice and snow 
hovercraft, snow country roller coasters, and pet paradise, as well as 
must-visit spots well-received by youngsters and online celebrities, providing 
general tourists and ice and snow enthusiasts with brand new experiences of 
enjoying ice and snow. This year's Snow Carnival will continue until the end of 
February next year.
