ZHANGJIAKOU, DEC. 22 (Xinhua) -- The 'S-type' curve of the National Ski Jumping Center, located in the Zhangjiakou competition zone, is nicknamed 'Snow Ruyi' thanks to its resemblance to the shape of a 'Ruyi', a traditional Chinese ornament symbolizing good luck. The Palace Museum has nearly 3,000 Ruyi scepters in a wide variety of materials.
Chief designer Zhang Li is proud of his team's idea. "In terms of making use of the terrain, the 'Snow Ruyi' design is a good example," said Zhang.
