The mascot for the 4th Asian Para Games scheduled to be held here from October 9 in 2022 was unveiled on Thursday.

The design of 'Feifei' is inspired by the motif of the 'Divine Bird' in the Liangzhu Culture.

The mascot is the fusion of Hangzhou's heritage and its drive for technological innovation, carrying the longing for harmonious co-existence between humans and nature.

"We are very pleased that the Mascot has been launched so far ahead of the Games in order to start building excitement right across Asia," Asian Paralympic Committee President Majid Rashed said.

"The mascot helps to bring the Games to life for everyone, from the athletes to the spectators. It's important therefore that the mascot is attractive and appealing and 'Feifei' is certainly both of those!
"It is the messenger of sportsmanship, an envoy of culture and a symbol of friendship. These are all very important aspects of the Asian Para Games and we are pleased that they have been incorporated into the mascot's design."
