TÓQUIO 2020

Estafeta da tocha Olímpica

By Ben Mullins

March 12, 2020 - July 24, 2020 - Depois de acesa em Olímpia, na Grécia, a tocha Olímpiva segue para Atenas a 19 de março, e daí para o Japão para o início da XXXIIª Olimpíada que tem lugar em Tóquio a partir de 24 de julho de 2020.

Following a special display session called “The Flame of Recovery” in the Japanese prefectures of Miyagi, Iwate and Fukushima – areas hit especially hard by the 2011 earthquake and tsunami – the flame will begin its tour of Japan from March 26 to July 24, whereupon it will arrive at Tokyo’s New National Stadium, ready for the opening ceremony.

During its travels the torch will visit all 47 prefecture capitals, plus hundreds of towns and villages along the way, giving people from all walks of life a chance to share in the celebration.

The Olympic torch was designed by Tokujin Yoshioka and is inspired by traditional cherry blossoms, with five petal-shaped columns around the tip of the rose gold aluminium beacon supplying five separate flames. Around 30% of the metal used in its construction is recycled from emergency prefabricated housing units built in the aftermath of the devastating 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami.
