A new high-speed rail link began operation on Sunday, significantly shortening the travel time from China's capital Beijing to the renowned Changbai Mountain in the northeastern province of Jilin, offering a boost to China's growing winter sports and ice tourism market.
The Shenyang-Baihe section of the Shenyang-Jiamusi High-Speed Railway, with a design speed of 350 km per hour, officially commenced service on Sunday.
On the same day, the Jilin section of the G331 national highway was fully opened to traffic. With a total length of 1,240 kilometers, the scenic national highway connects 45 tourist attractions at or above the 3A level. (Xinhua/Zhang Nan)
