Visitors can enter the park, located in Shijingshan district, free of charge after making real-name reservations through a mini-program on the social media platform WeChat during the trial operations period.
The park, located along the Yongding River, which flows through the southwestern region of Beijing, covers an area of 1,142 hectares, including 326 hectares of water area and 506 hectares of green space. It is about twice the size of the Olympic Forest Park in the city.
Close to the 2022 Winter Olympic venue of the Shougang Ski Jumping Platform, the park also boasts landscapes simulating mountain skiing facilities, highlighting elements of the Winter Olympics.
