The Paris Olympics officially began on Friday on the River Seine, with athletes from 206 nations sailing through the city. This marks the first time in the summer event’s history that athletes have entered the Olympics via a river. The Indian contingent was led by PV Sindhu and Sharath Kamal.
It is worth noting that this is the first time the ceremony has not been held inside a stadium. Instead, the city’s iconic landmarks provided a stunning backdrop for the parade of nations, with the athletes traveling on boats along a six-kilometer route through Paris from the Pont d’Austerlitz to the Trocadero.
