The Beijing 2022 emblem combines traditional and modern elements of Chinese culture, and embodies the passion and vitality of winter sports.

Inspired by the Chinese character冬for “winter”, the upper part of the emblem resembles a skater and its lower part a skier. The ribbon-like motif in between symbolizes the host country’s rolling mountains, Games venues, ski courses and skating rinks. It also indicates that the Games coincide with the celebrations of the Chinese New Year.

The blue color in the emblem represents dreams, the future and the purity of ice and snow, while red and yellow – the colors of China’s national flag – present passion, youth and vitality.
