Paris, capital of romance, has started the heartbreaking process of removing thousands of love locks chained to the dreamy Pont des Arts Bridge by adoring couples.
A look at the wow pictures.
A procession of barges will take nearly 7,000 athletes along the river past Paris's most famous landmarks, while more than 300,000 spectators will watch from the banks.
Unlike for previous Olympics, the Paris 2024 opening ceremony will not take place in a stadium.
Some couples like to cook together while others like to work out. Robin Lachhein, 31, and Judith Schneider, 30, from Hofheim, Germany, have a slightly more involved hobby: They travel the world together re-creating famous movie and television serial scenes. They post images of their amazing recreations to their Instagram page, Secret Famous Places, which has amassed a following of more than 20,000 people. Among the scenes they have recreated are the dancing scene from La La Land in Griffith Park, Los Angeles, a scene from romantic comedy P.S I Love You and from the blockbuster hit Game of Thrones. Keep scrolling to see some of their favourite shots so far.
