The 2007 Winter Asiad mascot was Lulu, a deer seen around Changchun commonly. It is a species of the sika deer, a native of East Asia. In the Chinese culture, this deer is considered to be a symbol of good luck and fortune.{{cite web|url=http://english.china.com/zh_cn/news/sports/11059227/20070130/13909163.html|title = Mascot of 2007 Changchun Asian Winter Games-- |access-date=2012-09-09|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120302083815/http://english.china.com/zh_cn/news/sports/11059227/20070130/13909163.html|archive-date=2012-03-02 }} China.com-Mascot of 2007 Changchun Asian Winter Games It is said to feature a mild temper, a sporty spirit and quick response. Lulu was expected to represent the welcoming smile of the Changchunans.

Combining the movements of a ski jumper and a short-track speed skater, the emblem of the 2007 Asian Winter Games consisted of two Chinese calligraphy strokes. The blue C-shaped stroke called to mind the first letter of Changchun and represented the city's characteristic as the "city of ice and snow" and "city of science and technology". The bottom green stroke symbolized peace ("friendship first, competition second") and represented the city's characteristic as the "city of everlasting spring" and "city of the forest". The emblem presented an image of "change with each passing day" and "the hawk takes to the vast sky."

A total of 47 medal events in ten sports and disciplines were in contention in the Sixth Winter Asian Games.
