Wanda Group began selling tickets Thursday for its Harbin Wanda Cultural and Tourist Town in Harbin, capital of Heilongjiang province.
The town has a large ski resort, an outdoor wonderland and a grand theater.
The large indoor ski resort in the town covers 80,000 square meters, and the temperature in the ski resort stays at a chilly -5 C throughout the year.
There are six high, medium and low ski trails in total, some of them as high as 80 meters, which can accommodate 1,500 people skiing together.
It will be one of the world's largest indoor ski resorts, which means visitors can enjoy the ice and snow even in the midst of a hot summer.
