The Paris 2024 Olympics started with a dazzling opening ceremony that celebrated unity in diversity. Paris transformed into a grand amphitheater, with the River Seine serving as the stage for the athletes’ parade. France showcased its cultural richness, revolutionary spirit, craftsmanship, and architectural heritage in this grand event.
The ceremony began with a unique twist on tradition as the ‘Parade of Nations’ featured athletes from 205 countries and one refugee team sailing down the Seine on boats, despite heavy rain that threatened to disrupt the event.
