In the village of Youkakekagatuer in southern Xinjiang, where snowfall is as rare as a unicorn 🦄, an icy revolution is kicking off! ❄️ Local Party secretary Mamat Rahman had a 'cool' idea 💡—turning paddy fields into sparkling ice rinks. ⛸️
These icy playgrounds aren't just for sliding and gliding; they're boosting local incomes too! 💰 Villagers are enjoying a winter wonderland right at their doorstep, and the community vibes are off the charts! 🎶
Neighboring villages saw the fun and couldn't resist joining in. Now, winters across southern Xinjiang are buzzing with laughter, skating, and lively ice bazaars. 😄🏞️
Who would've thought that a bit of ice could warm hearts and pockets? 🥰 This frosty innovation is turning the chilly season into the hottest time of the year! 🔥
