Also, the Olympic torch lighting ceremony was held in Athens, Greece. The torch will travel around the country for 11 days and then will cross to Marseille, France on the historic sailing ship “Belem.”
The flame symbolizes peace and links the modern Games with those of antiquity.
The torch relay includes 38 stages in France until reaching the opening ceremony on July 26, where the most important sporting competition, the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, will begin.
