Hangzhou Asian Games gold medal

Hangzhou Asian Games bronze medal

Entitled Shan Shui, the medal of the 19th Asian Games is characterized by the ceremonial jade artifact Cong, which dates from the Liangzhu Culture.

A traditional circular medal is embedded in the square jade, making it truly unique and highly recognizable.

The design of Shan Shui depicts the natural landscape of Hangzhou — protruding lines outline misty hills, a rippling lake and undulating mountains on the front side, while the back side features the logo of the Olympic Council of Asia.

Shan Shui highlights Hangzhou's ecological importance, with its beautiful scenery, clear water and rolling hills.

The depiction of mountains symbolizes the heights that athletes aspire to conquer. On the way to the summit, athletes strive hard, challenge themselves, and surmount one peak after another.

The medal will be made by embossing, milling, trimming and polishing, gold and silver plating, and protection treatment. The ribbon will be hand-stitched on both sides using brocade technology and environmentally friendly printing techniques.

The bridge-shaped buckle at the top of the ribbon symbolizes the famous water towns of the Yangtze River Delta region.
