"Beyond passion, ignite dreams" is the theme of the performance in Yanqing Winter Paralympic Awards Plaza, and the China Disabled Arts Troupe will form the core of the performance team, combined with the characteristics of the Winter Paralympic competition, to show the optimistic, confident and uplifting spirit of the disabled, and to pay tribute to the hard-working Winter Paralympic athletes.
In order to create a more convenient and warm environment for disabled friends who come here, Yanqing Winter Paralympic Awards Plaza is committed to transmitting barrier-free "love" without obstacles. According to Ma Ying, manager of the accessibility field of Yanqing Winter Paralympic Awards Plaza, Yanqing Winter Paralympic Awards Plaza takes accessibility as the core, designs many traffic schemes, and accurately runs the details. The reconstructed "above-ground cable", the barrier light of the barrier-free toilet, the slowing travel route of the slope, etc., are all the results of many communications and multi-field docking.

Yanqing Winter Paralympic Awards Plaza is a temporary facility combining an indoor permanent building with a small number of temporary constructions, which began construction on October 20 and took more than two months to complete, and is the only non-competition venue that only undertakes the task of winter Paralympic games. As the main award venue for the snow sports of the 2022 Beijing Winter Paralympic Games, the awards plaza will run for 7 days (From March 6 to March 12, 2022) to undertake the medal awarding ceremony for 27 events in the Yanqing division of the Beijing Winter Paralympic Games. At that time, the Yanqing Winter Paralympic Awards Plaza will alternate with the Zhangjiakou Winter Paralympic Awards Plaza for the award ceremony and broadcast it live to the world.
From above, the maple-shaped Yanqing Winter Paralympic Awards Plaza is in harmony with the creeping and "walking" National Alpine Ski Center "Snow Flying Swallow" and the National Snowmobile Bobsleigh Center "Snow Dragon" waiting for "take-off". This ice and snow scene is also an invitation letter sent to winter Paralympic athletes around the world: Get together at the Winter Paralympic Games and share a glorious moment! (End)
