As Paris prepares to host the 2024 Summer Olympics, a breathtaking video has captivated social media, showing the full moon passing through the Olympic rings on the iconic Eiffel Tower. This mesmerizing sight, shared by the official French Olympics handle, Jeux Olympiques, has gone viral, offering a unique prelude to the games set to begin on July 26 and conclude on August 11.
Full Moon Video
The video, shared on July 22, depicts the full moon perfectly aligned with the Olympic rings adorning the beautifully illuminated Eiffel Tower. The official post humorously captioned, “I asked the moon. Only 4 more sleeps before the opening ceremony,” has garnered significant attention, amassing over 58,000 views. Social media users expressed their awe, with comments like, “This is magnificent,” and “Awesome, awesome, we can’t wait.”
In anticipation of the games, Paris is bustling with preparations as it gets ready to welcome 10,500 athletes from 206 countries. The competitions will span 35 venues across the city, with some sports kicking off even before the grand opening ceremony. Football and rugby sevens matches will start on July 24, followed by archery and handball on July 25, as per the official Olympics website.
The opening ceremony promises to be a grand affair, featuring the entrance of French President Emmanuel Macron and International Olympic Committee President Thomas Bach. The event will commence with the raising of the French flag and the playing of the national anthem, setting the stage for the commencement of the much-awaited games.
Aritistic Paris beauty with excitement
The video has not only highlighted the artistic beauty of Paris but also the spirit of unity and excitement that the Olympics bring. The illuminated Eiffel Tower, a symbol of France, paired with the full moon and the Olympic rings, created a scene that perfectly embodies the global camaraderie and competitive spirit of the Olympic Games.
In related news, Australian tennis stars Daria Saville and Ellen Perez recently shared their experience of testing the “anti-sex” beds provided for athletes in the Olympic Village. The organizers have emphasized that these eco-friendly beds, made of cardboard, were chosen for their sustainability rather than to prevent intimacy among athletes.
As the countdown to the opening ceremony continues, the excitement and anticipation in Paris are palpable. The city’s iconic landmarks, such as the Eiffel Tower, are being showcased in all their glory, reflecting the pride and readiness of the host nation.
