The 184,500-sq m integrated training center will host basketball, volleyball, handball, fencing, and taekwondo events during the 2022 Games. The venue resembles a cong, a jade ritual vessel in ancient China with holes and rectangular sides. The cong is a representative cultural relic unearthed in Hangzhou that bears the remnants of the 5,000-year-old Liangzhu civilization, which was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List on July 6, 2019.
