CCTV News: After the transformation of barrier-free facilities, how about eating, living and walking in the Winter Paralympic Village? The reporter of the main station personally experienced the use of a wheelchair in the Beijing Winter Paralympic Village.
Zhang Jing: This is the reception hall of the delegation of the Beijing Winter Paralympic Village, and it is the first stop for delegations to come to the village. In order to facilitate the rapid and safe passage of wheelchair users, there is no need to pass a relatively narrow security gate in the security inspection link, there is a special green channel, and there are security personnel to conduct hand checks.
After completing the formalities in the reception hall of the delegation and activating the identity registration card, you can reach the residential area through the authentication machine. There are special battery cars at the door to pick up the members of the delegation and their luggage.
This is a model room for the Winter Paralympic Athletes' Apartment, with lots of barrier-free facilities. For example, all doors are sliding doors that can be operated with one arm, as well as handrails, bath stools, and so on. Let's look inside the bedroom again, this is a bed for wheelchair athletes, the foot of the bed is lowered by 10 cm compared to the Time of the Winter Olympics, which is convenient for getting on and off the bed. We saw a throw pillow at the head of the bed. This side is the emblem of the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games "Leap", and this side is the mascot of the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games "Snow Rongrong". When opened, it becomes a blanket with sports icons for each event of the Winter Paralympic Games, and this pillow is given to athletes at that time.
The athlete's restaurant is just south of the building where they live, so it's easy to get by. When you enter the restaurant, there are also many barrier-free designs. For example, take the plate very low and within reach. Of course, our staff will also be very helpful to hand it to you. To the table, you can see that there is a 30 cm wide edge, if you are a one-armed athlete you can easily drag this plate to each to take the meal. The spacing between the tables is still relatively large, and the height of the table is suitable for wheelchair athletes, who can come here directly to eat. At the time of the Winter Olympics, our Chinese cuisine like dumplings and roast duck has been on the hot search, so what star dishes will be listed in the Winter Paralympic Games? We'll see and keep recording.
