The Winter Olympic Village is the first stop for athletes to arrive and register, and creating a warm and comfortable Winter Olympic Village is an important symbol of the service level of the Winter Olympic Games. The Beijing Winter Olympics will have three major competition areas: Beijing, Yanqing and Zhangjiakou, and each division will have a Winter Olympic Village.
In order to create a healthy and comfortable living environment for athletes, from site design to construction completion, the Winter Olympic Village Project of the Beijing Winter Olympic Games lasted for 5 years, condensing the sweat of many staff. During the competition, the Winter Olympic Village will provide "53 days×24 hours" guarantee service for participating athletes and accompanying officials.

Beijing Winter Olympic Village (Winter Paralympic Village) is located on the south side of the Beijing Olympic Sports Center, with a total construction area of about 330,000 square meters and consists of 20 residential buildings. Its planning and design concept comes from the courtyard form of beijing courtyard, 20 buildings surrounded by six courtyards, reflecting the integration of Olympic culture and Beijing's excellent traditional culture.
Beijing Winter Olympic Village is divided into two parts: residential area and operation area. The operation area undertakes the functions of delegation registration, office, security, concierge and other functions, while the residential area provides accommodation, catering, medical and other services for participating athletes and accompanying officials, of which 2338 beds are provided during the Beijing Winter Olympic Games and 1040 beds are provided during the Winter Paralympic Games.
The buildings in Yanqing Winter Olympic Village (Winter Paralympic Village) are built on the mountain, with an average altitude of about 940 meters, a maximum height difference of 46 meters between north and south, and a total construction area of 118,000 square meters, which are divided into three areas: residential area, square area and operation area.

Yanqing Winter Olympic Village adopts a decentralized, semi-open courtyard layout, reflecting the architectural characteristics and settlement forms of residential buildings in northern China. During the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, Yanqing Winter Olympic Village will receive more than 1,200 athletes and team officials from nearly 90 countries and regions, and during the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games, it will receive about 500 athletes and team officials from more than 30 delegations participating in alpine skiing events.
Zhangjiakou Winter Olympic Village (Winter Paralympic Village) is located in the ice and snow town of Prince City, Chongli District, Zhangjiakou City, and is also divided into three areas: residential area, square area and operation area. There are 31 buildings in the Village, consisting of 9 courtyards and 1 single building, each of which is surrounded by 3 to 4 small buildings.
From the courtyard of Beijing courtyard to the courtyard of ordinary people in rural areas, the courtyard is an important part of people's living space. Adhering to this concept, the element of "yard" has also been integrated into the design of Zhangjiakou Winter Olympic Village.

During the Winter Olympics, Yanqing Winter Olympic Village is expected to receive 2,020 athletes and accompanying officials from 79 national and regional delegations. During the Winter Paralympic Games, it is expected to host 644 athletes and team officials from delegations from 39 countries and regions.
In the construction process of the Winter Olympic Village, the concept of health, green and environmental protection runs through the whole process, and strives to make the athletes live with peace of mind, rest assured and comfortable. Beijing Winter Olympic Village strictly selects building materials based on the standard of "healthy building" and establishes a multi-dimensional noise reduction system to create a safe and healthy living environment. The main building of Yanqing Winter Olympic Village uses ultra-low energy consumption engineering technology to maintain indoor comfort while saving energy and environmental protection. Zhangjiakou Winter Olympic Village room heating uses electric heating, and the floor is covered with carbon fiber heating cables, which can directly convert electrical energy into heat energy and reduce heat loss.
The three Winter Olympic villages not only meet the three-star standard of green buildings, but also have a lot of ingenuity in the details. For example, the bed in the bedroom is made of memory foam material, which provides different scene modes such as sleeping posture and sitting posture, just to allow athletes to get full rest and release the pressure of the game.

Around the food, clothing, shelter and transportation in the Winter Olympic Village, the staff of the three major competition areas made sufficient preparations. From the "Winter Olympic Menu" that offers specialties from all over the world, you can feel the hospitality and enthusiasm of China as the host.
This special menu consists of 678 dishes, including world cuisine. The Winter Olympic Villages in the three competition areas will use the same menu recipe, select about 200 dishes per day for athletes from all over the world to eat, and rotate the menu in an 8-day cycle to meet the needs of athletes from different countries, different regions, different nationalities and different eating habits.
In order to facilitate the contestants to choose their favorite meals, the athletes' canteen has set up 12 kinds of tables, including the World Table, the Asian Table, the Chinese Table, the Ming Table, the Halal Table, the Pizza and Pasta Table, the Salad and Condiment Table, the Fresh Fruit Table, and the Bread and Dessert Table. All dishes are based on nutritional balance and healthy cooking standards to meet the nutritional needs of athletes during the competition.

In terms of post-game utilization, the three Winter Olympic villages have made full plans, which is another manifestation of the concept of green sustainability. After the Beijing Winter Olympic Village, it will become a high-end talent apartment in Beijing, yanqing winter olympic village will be built and operated after the game in accordance with the four-star and five-star two-star hotel model, and Zhangjiakou Winter Olympic Village will be rented or sold as a ski apartment after the game.
As the "home" of the world's top ice and snow athletes during the Beijing Winter Olympic Games, the Winter Olympic Village is looking forward to visitors from all over the world.
