The waters of the Seine, is the Olympics really going to be held here? The opening ceremony of this Olympic Games is not in the stadium, but arranged on the Seine River

The swimming event of the triathlon is also planned to be completed on the Seine River. Because Macron wanted to prove that the water of the Seine could support these water events, he promised to swim in the water himself during the Olympic rehearsal. But are the people of Paris really that interesting~ Some citizens, with nothing better to do, calculated the timing of Macron's swim and deliberately threw feces💩 into the water ahead of time, and there are even websites that update in real time, calculating the best time to throw based on the weather and the speed of the water flow. Well, it seems that with everyone's relentless efforts, the water quality of the Seine still does not meet the standards, and the time for little Macron to swim personally has been postponed as expected. This time, the triathlon event will start from the Pont Alexandre III, with the individual triathlon race beginning with a 1.5-kilometer swim, followed by a 40-kilometer bike race, passing through the Grand Palais and the Champs-Élysées, and finally a 10-kilometer run in the city center. In fact, the pollution of the Seine is not a new problem. As early as 1923, due to severe water pollution, the Paris city government banned swimming in the Seine. The river's reputation for foul odors has been noted in many literary works. However, for the Olympics, the Paris city government really spent a billion euros on treatment, putting in a lot of effort. They originally planned to reopen swimming to coincide with the centennial return of the Olympics to Paris. It seems that not everyone is cooperating~ Sasha has been to Paris several times, and this year is really the clearest year for the Seine River, the water is far from smelly, although it is always true that it is black and gray. Even the number of riverboats seems to have increased a lot. Taking a boat on the river, which basically includes almost all the attractions of Paris on both sides, is actually a very nice enjoyment. Taking a riverboat on the Seine, you can start from the Eiffel Tower and pass through several historic bridges, with the Grand Palais, the Tuileries Garden, the Hôtel des Invalides, the Louvre, the City Hall, and the old Parisian prison on both sides, all of which are a concentration of the history of Paris and even the city. A riverboat tour of more than an hour only costs seventeen euros, which I personally think is a very cost-effective way to travel. As for the Olympics, well, let's hope the Olympics go smoothly , and that the athletes complete the competition healthy and safe.
