2022 Winter Olympic Games• Beijing, along with Zhangjiakou in north western Hebei
province, wants to host the Winter Games in 2022. Yang Shu'an, President of the Chinese Olympic Committee, said China would do everything possible to make sure winter sports become an important part of people's life in the country.

roads and venues are built, but they are not used very often after the Olympics are finished. The 2008 Beijing Olympics estimated cost was $40 billion. At the time, it was the most expensive Olympic Games ever. The 2014 Sochi Winter Olympics estimated cost is $50 billion.

The Olympic Creed
The most significant thing in the Olympic Games is not to win but to take part.
Just as the most important thing in life is not the triumph but the struggle.
The essential thing is not to have conquered but to have fought well.
The Olympic Motto
Citius, Altius, Fortius
Loosely translated, these Latin words mean:
Faster, Higher, Stronger
