The Olympic excitement may have cooled down with summer's end, but for Paralympians, the Games are just heating up. China's 516-member Paralympic delegation was officially formed in Beijing on Friday, and all set to compete in Paris with pride and integrity.

The Paris Paralympic Games, set for Aug 28 to Sept 8, will mark the French capital hosting the event for the first time.
