Marseille: A Natural Metropolis for the Olympic Games
Located in the south of France, Marseille is the perfect location for water sports and football in preparation for the 2014 Olympic Games. This bustling metropolis, known for its lush vegetation, has become a champion in biodiversity conservation and provides a natural arena at the foot of the bay for spectators to enjoy the sporting event.
It's worth noting that Marseille Bay is also a candidate as the venue for the 2024 Olympic Games, alongside Paris. This attraction showcases the city's commitment to nature, with 200 hectares of marine species complemented by the 45,000-hectare Kalop National Park in the sea and 12,000 hectares on land.
In addition, Marseille boasts a UEFA Category Four stadium. The important France-Germany match of the 2016 UEFA European Championship was held in this iconic venue. Now, we can only wait for the results, but the people of Marseille are confident that their city will be chosen for this prestigious event.
