What are the cultural elements of the Winter Olympics?

The cultural elements of the Winter Olympics are as follows:

Calligraphy and seal cutting in 1. logo

Inspired by the Chinese character "winter", the emblem of Beijing Winter Olympics shows the ups and downs of the track and the vigorous posture of the ice and snow athletes in calligraphy. The 30 sports icons of Beijing Winter Olympics, inspired by the Chinese character structure, have 30 special "seals" for the Winter Olympics, and also echo the emblem "China Seal" of Beijing 2008 Olympic Games.

2, the mascot panda and lanterns

The mascots of the Beijing Winter Olympics and Paralympics, Ice Shield and Xue Rongrong, are based on China's "national treasure" panda and China Lantern respectively. "Ice shield" symbolizes the healthy, tenacious and inspiring Olympic spirit; "Snowmelt" takes the most representative "China Red" as the main color, which means to light dreams and warm the world.

3, medals and concentric circles jade

The medal design of Beijing Winter Olympics originated from the concentric jade carving in ancient China. The five rings on the front are not only the five rings of the Olympic Games, but also the traditional "five strings" of China, and the design is inspired by the traditional pattern of string jade; The 24 points on the back ring and the arc of starry sky movement come from the ancient astronomical map "Seven Balances and Six Rooms".

4. Award-winning bouquets and Shanghai's non-legacy

The prize bouquet of Beijing Winter Olympics is different from the past. Instead of flowers, I used 1 more. Six non-legacy woven flowers. These wool flowers from Shanghai's non-legacy project "Haipai Wool Weaving Skills" were all hand-woven by the producers, which took nearly 50,000 hours.

5. Torch and Yi Deng, China.

The inheritance of fire is a major attraction of Beijing Winter Olympics. The kindling lamp used in the torch relay originally originated from "Yi Deng in China". More than 2,000 years ago, the Changxin Palace Lantern in the Western Han Dynasty represented the pursuit and yearning for light and hope.

The arc of the fire platform originates from the traditional bronze ritual vessel "Zun" in China, and the torch shape full of lines conforms to China's traditional philosophy of "Taoism is natural and man and nature are integrated".
