As one the co-host cities with the most events in the upcoming Asian Games, Shaoxing organized the "I'm in Shaoxing, welcoming the Asian Games" Rural Calligraphy Meet on June 17.

Participants created calligraphy works supporting the Games, showcasing the city's enthusiasm for the event. In the team competition, several participants collaborated using various calligraphy styles to create a 10-meter-long scroll.

A ceremony was held during the event to present an "I'm in Shaoxing, welcoming the Asian Games"-themed calligraphy scroll, which was then gifted to the Shaoxing Asian Games Organizing Committee.

The activity embodied the spirit of the Asian Games through calligraphy, which is Shaoxing's signature art form.

Shaoxing will continue to work hand in hand with its people to contribute to the creation of an Asian Games that captures the attention of the world and delivers an extraordinary spectacle.
