Cutting a long story short


Smooth preparations
With the torch relit, venues being tested and operational drills underway, Beijing is all set to stage the much-anticipated 2022 Winter Games. The Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics will open on Feb 4, while the Paralympics will kick off on March 4 in three competition zones-downtown Beijing, its northwest Yanqing district and co-host city Zhangjiakou, Hebei province. Thirteen years after the 2008 Summer Games, the Olympic flame has returned to the Chinese capital as Beijing's preparations for this year's Winter Olympics enter the home stretch, with operational details, legacy and, most importantly, safety amid the pandemic prioritized. The Beijing Organizing Committee for the 2022 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games is now confident of ensuring that the Games will be streamlined, safe and splendid.
