The 19th Asian Games will lift its curtain on Saturday evening. From the torch design to the mascot, from venue construction to the collection of the Asian Games flame, "Liangzhu Culture" is everywhere.
Situated on the southeastern coast of China within the Yangtze River Basin, the archaeological remnants of Liangzhu, dating from approximately 3,300 to 2,300 BC, unveil the presence of an ancient regional civilization characterized by a shared religious belief system centered around rice farming during the Late Neolithic period in China.
