Golden chance to revive Northeast China

Northeast China, once the industrial engine of New China, is increasingly becoming a rust belt, as the regional economy has lost its traditional advantages.
As part of the country's efforts to revitalize the region, Northeast China's natural resources of ice and snow should be further exploited.
China's three northeastern provinces, Heilongjiang, Liaoning and Jilin, have the most abundant snow and ice resources in the country in terms of snow volume and quality. The long snow season is a unique advantage for local development. For example, in Heilongjiang province, the snow season usually lasts about 120 days in the mountainous areas.
