The 15th Winter Tourism Trade Fair and the 2021 Northwest China Tourism Marketing Conference kicked off in Fuyun County, Altay Prefecture of northwest China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region on Saturday.

The events feature modern skiing, ancient fur skiing, new ski clothing releases, and other snow sports competitions to showcase Xinjiang's rich winter tourism resources and profound skiing history and culture.

The indoor main venue is hosting various activities, including shared skiing, ice hockey games, a folk ice carnival, and mixed snow and ice competitions.

At the same time, a slew of activities is scheduled to be hosted featuring snow and ice tourism, winter sports, folk experience events, and intangible cultural heritage.

The Xinjiang Winter Tourism Trade Fair and the Northwest China Tourism Marketing Conference are the primary brand and distinctive tourism programs of a new initiative called "Silk Road, Magical Northwest." China's northwest provinces and regions have been jointly promoting the initiative.

The events also respond to the country's call to engage 300 million people in snow and ice sport events and support the upcoming 2022 World Winter Sports (Beijing) Expo.

The events will last until the opening of the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympic Games.
