Athletes make themselves at home in the Olympic Village that is filled with amenities.
The Paris 2024 Olympic Village will be home to 14,250 athletes and officials spread across a 520,000sqm site with 82 buildings.
Saiyidah, 36, said: “I saw Nadal first but he was already swarmed with people. When I went up to Alcaraz, I was telling him – I’m so sorry, I have to be one of these people who annoy you – and he was so nice and said it’s okay. I was grinning from ear to ear.” The Tokyo 2020 Olympic Village made the news for its eco-friendly, purportedly “anti-sex” cardboard beds – one can choose from soft, moderate and super firm mattress – which have returned for Paris 2024.
For many, the village is home for the next few weeks. It is set up like a mini city with a grocery store, coffee shop, pharmacy, post office, a souvenir shop filled with Paris 2024 merchandise, open spaces to relax and a sprawling dining hall across six rooms featuring French, international, Asian, halal and vegetarian cuisine.
