Paris is getting a glow-up! 🗼✨ The iconic Eiffel Tower is set to dazzle with the Olympic rings ahead of the Paris Games. Jean-Francois Martins, president of SETE, announced that the monumental installation will begin later this month, right after the Olympic torch departs from ancient Olympia in Greece. The rings will adorn the Seine-facing side, making the City of Lights even brighter!
But that is not all—the Eiffel Tower will play a starring role during the Games. It is the 38-kilometer mark for marathon runners and the stunning backdrop for beach volleyball matches right at its base. Talk about iconic! 🏐🏃♂️
And let us not forget the Olympic flame, which will burn brightly at the Jardin des Tuileries near the Louvre, adding a touch of historic charm to the festivities.
Mark your calendars, folks! The Paris Games run from July 26 to August 11. Get ready for an unforgettable summer of sport and culture! 🥇🇫🇷
