With summer taking up all 4 seasons in Singapore, it’s no wonder we flock to other countries to experience winter and its icy activities. China is well known for its indoor skiing facilities, boasting some of the biggest arenas. They’ve recently added another to the list with the opening of the largest indoor ski resort in the world, Wintastar Shanghai.

Wintastar Shanghai is an indoor skiing-themed resort in Lingang city in the Pudong district. It is a 25-minute drive from the Shanghai Pudong International Airport. Getting to the resort is a relative breeze; hop on a 5.5-hour direct round-trip flight aboard China Eastern Airlines with tickets starting from S$349.
Spanning across a 90sqkm land area, Wintastar Shanghai takes the crown for the largest indoor ski resort in the world. The resort is part of China’s tourism industry project, especially seeing the increasing interest in the snow and ice industry after Beijing hosted the Winter Olympics in 2022.
