Wind and rain send spring home, flying snow welcomes spring arrival. A spring snow as promised added a different color to the Beijing Winter Olympics, which was more than halfway through the schedule. Winter Olympic athletes can enjoy the scenery of the northern country of "thousands of miles of frozen snow", and athletes in Yanqing and Zhangjiakou can better appreciate the grand scenery of "inside and outside the Great Wall, but the remaining reckless".

Snow Flying Swallow, Snow Dragon, Snow Ruyi... The exquisite venue meets the lean snowflakes, and there are countless comforts in the world. "Yanshan snowflakes are as big as a seat", against the background of the snowflakes flying in the sky, whether it is the bird's nest or the Shougang big jumping platform, it is more graceful. The snow-capped Beijing reinforces the conviction that the theme of snowflakes at the opening ceremony is not a clever idea, but the innate beauty of the City of The Two Olympics. Ice and snow athletes from all over the world took out their mobile phones to record this beautiful beauty between training and competitions; reporters from all over the world were even more excited to point the camera at the snowflakes and collect the beautiful snow scenes into the lens.
Spring snow is full of air, and the touch is like a flower. In the middle of the Winter Olympic schedule, the first Ruixue of the Year of the Tiger is a gift to all the athletes of the Winter Olympics, and a spring baptism to everything that is about to be revived. Paul, a reporter for United Press International, said: "Beijing is very beautiful when it snows, and I have photographed many beautiful scenery and stories in the snow. "In fact, the beauty is not only the snow scene, but also the city of beijing and the citizens of Beijing.
Because of the heavy snow, the visibility of the competition venue is low and there are safety hazards, which inevitably affects some outdoor competition projects of the Winter Olympic Games. In order to ensure the quality of the Winter Olympic Games, especially the personal safety of athletes, the Beijing Winter Olympic Organizing Committee has continuously released news that the freestyle ski women's slope obstacle course qualification tournament and the final have been postponed by one day, and the freestyle ski women's aerial skills qualification tournament has been postponed. In addition, the second training for women's downhill skiing was also cancelled for some reason.
The heavy snow brought beauty and poetry to the Winter Olympics, and also tested the city's ability to guarantee. Snow is the command. In order to fully guarantee the operation of the event and the order of the city, Beijing and various competition areas prepared in advance and acted quickly, focusing on ensuring the passage of roads around the key Olympic-related areas such as the Winter Olympic venues, and providing a clean and beautiful environment for Olympic athletes and event service support personnel from all over the world. According to the Beijing Evening News, there are 56,000 people on standby in Beijing, preparing 10,791 sets of equipment for various types of snow removal vehicles; Yanqing Winter Olympic Village began to plow snow and shovel ice from 3 a.m. to ensure that the snow at the entrance and exit of each station and the road in the station were cleared in time, and the athlete shuttle, arrival and departure shuttle, staff shuttle and so on were all normal, and the vehicles on each shift were complete, and no congestion and detention occurred. Early in the morning, the staff of the media hotel where the closed-loop personnel are located has been busy in the outdoor shuttle bus boarding point and parking lot, doing a good job of cleaning the shuttle point. Cadres at all levels, community workers, city volunteers, community properties and residents in Beijing have also thrown themselves into snow and ice shoveling with the consciousness and mastery of the Winter Olympics hosts. Snow has been falling, people have been dry, there is very little snow on key areas and key roads, the operation of the whole city has basically not been greatly affected, and all the work related to the Winter Olympics has remained the same.
The ability of Beijing, the "City of The Two Olympics", to guarantee the event has been tested again, and the enthusiasm of the citizens of the capital for the Winter Olympics has also been concentrated, which fully demonstrates Beijing's urban governance ability and mobilization level, especially the civilized quality and spiritual outlook of Beijing citizens. Those who stick to their posts to clean up the snow against the wind and snow are not the spokesmen for the Olympic spirit; the figures covered with snowflakes are also the most beautiful scenery of the Winter Olympics.
Excellent protection makes the Winter Olympics more attractive. Everyone is a snowflake, dressing up the capital even more beautifully.
