Abstract: From Sep 23rd to Oct 28th, 2023, 19th Asian Games and the 4th Asian Para Games were held in Hangzhou. With more than 6 years of preparation, Hangzhou Fire and Rescue Division set a record of “no fire hazards, no fire alarms, no fire accidents” during the 21 days of the event. Furthermore, fire accidents of the city decreased by 86%.
