Paris has witnessed numerous memorable moments in history – some of the Olympic Games Paris 2024 venues are a testament (证明) to that. The sight of 85 boats carrying 6,800 athletes along the Seine towards the sparkling Eiffel Tower is not one the French capital is likely to forget. By opening with the parade of athletes, Paris 2024 is breaking with tradition.
