Prince Sabah took over the flag of OCA, and the Asian Games officially entered from "Jakarta time" to "Hangzhou time".

From the moment we learned about the right to host the Games, Hangzhou has already begun to make active preparations for the opening of the Asian Games in 222. The main venue of the Asian Games has been put into use, and 33 new venues are under full construction.

On the banks of Qiantang River, a blooming white lotus flower faces the old city of Hangzhou across the river. This "lotus flower" is the main stadium of Hangzhou Asian Games in 222-Hangzhou Olympic Sports Center. Not far from it lies Hangzhou International Expo Center, the main venue of G2 Summit. Two striking buildings have become new landmarks in Hangzhou.

The core area of Hangzhou Olympic Sports Expo City covers an area of 154.37 hectares, with a total construction area of 2.72 million square meters. The 8,-seat main stadium and the 1,-seat tennis finals are connected by a platform. Among them, the main stadium will be delivered before the 217 National University and Middle School Games, and the tennis center will be completed in the second half of this year.

in addition, the venues scattered in various districts and counties in Hangzhou have also begun to take shape-according to the Host City Contract for the 19th Asian Games in 222 and the preliminarily determined competition projects, the task of building the first batch of 33 venues and facilities in Hangzhou has been clearly defined. Among them, 5 new venues, 7 continued venues, 12 upgraded venues, 7 temporary venues, 1 newly-built Asian Games Village, and 1 upgraded Asian Games Village by using existing resources.

in October last year, the construction of the first batch of 33 municipal venues for the Hangzhou Asian games was fully launched. After eight months, the new venue successfully completed the preparatory work such as site selection, design, construction drawing and bidding, and officially started construction in June this year. The five venues that need to be built are the Chengxi Sports Park Gymnasium in Gongshu District, the Shooting and Archery Hall in Fuyang District, the Water Sports Center in Fuyang District, the slalom venue in Fuyang District and the cycling project in Chun 'an County.

The construction of venues and facilities for the Hangzhou Asian Games generally adheres to the concept of "green, intelligent, thrifty and civilized", and strives to be frugal and never extravagant. The Asian Organizing Committee will also fully integrate the existing venue resources within the economic circle of Hangzhou such as Shaoxing, Jiaxing and Huzhou, as well as coastal cities such as Ningbo. In addition, around the concept of "internet plus Sports", "Intelligent Asian Games" is expected to be widely used.
