China had ice hockey in the Qing Dynasty. It is a traditional folk sports activity prevailing in northern China, and it is also popular in some areas of Shanxi. This kind of activity was recorded as early as the Song Dynasty, and the Book of Rites said, "Fortunately, we watched flowers and skated in the backyard." A Qing poet Bao Zhupo's poem "Ice Play" describes this in detail: "The wind blows the ground, the river condenses, and the new ice is as flat as a stone. Who braved the cold to play ice games and took a knee trip with Guan Wei who made iron? If iron is like a sword and ice is like a mirror, you can sharpen the mirror by stepping on the sword. As straight as a vector disease, the sword ridge mirror is scraped. " Besides speed skating and figure skating, there is also an ice car for children to play with. The ice sculpture car is a rectangular wooden frame nailed with wooden boards or strips, and a palladium nail is nailed on the left and right sides of the wooden frame. Palladium nails should protrude from the water frame to contact the ice surface to reduce friction and facilitate sliding. People sit on the water shelf, and each hand holds a pointed iron bar to exert force, stirring the direction of ice, and the ice cart slides up; At the same time, the iron bar also has the function of steering and braking.
