With only four days before the 2022 Winter Olympics host city is chosen, the Beijing bid committee has reiterated that the Chinese capital would be an ideal host for the winter sports gala based on its advantages in facilities and experience.

Wang Mens Nike Air Presto ISLAND BLUE Sale , whose team includes former basketball star Yao Ming and retired freestyle skiing world champion Li Nina, said Beijing's assured delivery of the Olympic Games and its huge winter sports potential make the Chinese capital an appealing candidate to the world.

Under Beijing's bid plan Womens Nike Air Presto Grey Purple Sale , all the ice events would take place at five venues, including four existing ones from the 2008 Olympics in downtown Beijing. The only new facility would be the National Speed Skating Oval, as an additional permanent venue for speedskating competitions.

The rest of the skiing events would be held at the new Nordic and Biathlon Center as well as the refurnished Genting Snow Park in Zhangjiakou Nike Air Presto SE Woven Grey Sale , which plans to build on the 2022 legacy and further develop after the Games.

JERUSALEM， Jan. 29 (Xinhua) -- Israel is a potential tourism magnet. It holds a unique place in religious history， it has attractive beaches， comfortable weather and other attractions. All these should make it a top destination for international tourism.
And yet， while 2016 saw an increase in the number of incoming tourists， Israel still has not reached it's full potential.
While the small Middle East country battles an image as an unsafe， turmoil-ridden place， it has also struggled with its hotel industry.
"For many years， we have the same number of rooms in the hotels -- about 50，000. This year after the big program that the minister led， we are going to be with more and more hotels in the next couple of years. We have amazing incentives for the investors，" says Amir Halevi， the Director General of Israel's Tourism Ministry.
Halevi is referring to the priority the tourism ministry has given to ending the stagnation in which Israeli hotels have been in.
With the growing realization that tourism can be a major driving force behind the local economy， the tourism ministry has made it its goal to improve the situation.
Not only is it trying to kick-start the construction of new hotels， it is also trying to reduce the bureaucracy around maintaining them.
In Israel， where bureaucracy and regulation are a major obstacle behind the high cost of living， plenty of red tape needs to be removed in order for more rooms to be built.
It can often take over a decade to begin building a hotel， with years of waiting for permits required by the different authorities.
"The process is going to be easier. It will be cheaper and that's why we hope the investors and entrepreneurs will come to Israel to build new hotels，" says Halevi， adding that hotel construction has now been promoted to a status of a "national project，" making it a top priority for the government as a whole.
