We couldn't wait to get changed and dressed up like professional skiers, though we didn't have the fashionable goggles. The hiring hall is quite large and well facilitated with over 7,000 sets of skiing equipment to rent. The fast and friendly service made me quite confident to brush up my skills. Also in the hall there is a ski school for both adults and kids with more than 150 certified instructors.

I was told to start learning from skis is easier than the snowboard. It took some time for me to get familiar with my skis, which are quite heavy for me. As soon as we got out of the hiring hall and set our feet in the snow, the real skiing began.
