The torch of the Hangzhou Asian Games is named “Flame of Inheritance,” and its design draws inspiration from the Liangzhu Culture, which bears witness to China’s 5,000-year civilization.

“Xinhuo” symbolizes the enduring transmission of Chinese civilization. The torch takes the jade cong as its emblem, drawing on cultural heritage and the natural landscape to illuminate the sacred sites of Chinese civilization with an even more radiant glow.
