Asian Para Games Officially Opens In Hangzhou With Grand Opening Ceremony
Hangzhou Olympic Sports Centre Stadium: Two weeks after the close of the 19th Asian Games, the lotus-shaped Hangzhou Olympic Sports Centre Stadium was filled with the spirit of competition and dreams of victory again as the 4th Asian Para Games opened on Sunday night.
China's Vice-Premier Ding Xuexiang declared the Asian Para Games open, as the event returns to China for the second time following the inaugural edition in Guangzhou in 2010.
Under the theme of "Hearts Meet, Dreams Shine", the opening ceremony reached its pinnacle when China's para swimmer Xu Jialing, who clinched seven gold medals at the Jakarta Asian Para Games in 2018, lit the cauldron with an intelligent bionic arm, emphasising that technologies can help realise dreams, reports Xinhua.
