The Olympics were an accelerator to the 2007 Grand Paris plan, including a 200km new metro ring around Paris and the revitalization of decaying urban areas.
As the most touristic city in the world, Paris chose spectacular locations to hold competitions : the lawns of Esplanade des Invalides in front of Les Invalides for archery, the Champ de Mars gardens at the foot of the Eiffel Tower for beach volleyball, the Grand Palais for taekwondo and the Palace of Versailles for equestrian competitions. Open-water and triathlon swimming were held in the scenic Seine River. The basket-ball competitions were held in Bercy Arena.

Paris 2024 Olympics facts
Frenchman Baron Pierre de Coubertin was the man behind the revival of the Olympics Games which were first held in Athens in 1896. As a tribute, the 1900 Olympic Games, second in history, were held in Paris, as were the 1924 Games.
Exactly one century later, from July 26 2024 to August 11 2024, Paris will organize again the games. The city intends to make the Games desirable again. After decades of waste, excess spending and official corruption, the city is promising a return to reason with sober games in 2024. Paris wants to set an example that will convince potential host cities that the Olympics aren’t a recipe for trouble, a badly needed initiative to find host cities in the future.
