Chongli District Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Thaiwoo Ski Resort Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Winter wonderland close to Beijing
Getting There - Train Beijing - Chongli
Attractions - Skiing
Hotels - Many options
We spent a weekend in Chongli during the winter and I think we will repeat this every year. Very convenient to take the train from Beijing North station or Qinghe station. I recommend to plan in advance and buy the ticket when they are released two weeks in advanced 🎫
You can choose from different ski centers according to your wish and abilities. Weather in February can be cold but we were lucky with sun on the Saturday so we could enjoy our lunch in the sun outdoors. If you live in Beijing this is definitely a cool place to go during the long wintertime.
We fell in love with Thaiwoo ski resort as it has everything we need. Different restaurants, ski activities, afterski events and they even have a band that plays outside if the weather allows.

Winter paradise
We made a little escape out of Beijing to Chongli to go skiing. There are several ski resorts in the area however this season we have been coming to Thaiwoo for the first time.
The little ski village has everything, hotels, restaurants, coffeehouses, bars, cocktail bar, KTV and hot-spring.. in addition to skiing.. from Beijing it is about 2-3 hours drive. You can also take the fast train to Taizicheng from Beijing north or Qinghe and then it’s just a 6 minute drive to the resort. #newyearadventure #snowboard #wintervibe #olympics #thaiwoo #chongli

Where to eat after Skiing?
The Brew House is just a convenient location to eat and drink a draft of beer after your ski adventure. Thaiwoo Ski Resort has lots of restaurants around but The Brew House is I think the nearest and has good beer to offer since it's too cold and beer can warm up my cold soul. It offers hamburgers, pizza, tacos, salads, bbq and more. For the drinks;Coffee, juice, wine, cocktails and beer. The price is average depends on your order. I love the pizza and beer the most. The ambiance is nice too.

Let's Enjoy the Winter Season!
Welcome to Thaiwoo Ski resort. It is located 20 minutes drive outside of Chongli District, Hebei, China. And it takes three hours drive by car from Beijing. I would recommend travelling there by car since it is the most convenient and comfortable transport. If you want to try skiing, it costs CNY580 a day per person. Slopes for beginners and Advanced are available. There are many restaurants to eat and hotels to stay in for a night or more nights. It is absolutely freezing here so wear the proper winter clothes once you visit Thaiwoo Ski Resort.

Genting Grand Secret Garden Resort (Yunding Ski Field) Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
During the Spring Festival, there's a long queue at the advanced slope in Genting
I went to Genting with my friends during the Spring Festival, had coffee at the Prince Hotel, and from here, next to the advanced slope, you can clearly see people queuing up. The ticket prices range from 750 to 550, and many people start skiing from early in the morning. This place is almost all about snowboarding🏂, and there are also very talented children. For someone like me who lacks athletic cells, the advanced slope can only be used for taking pictures, and then I go to the beginner's slope to have some fun.
Skiing instructors are really expensive in winter, and next time I go skiing, I still have to call on experienced skiers.
