The Eiffel Tower has been transformed in anticipation of the upcoming Olympics. On Friday, the famous Parisian monument was decorated with the Olympic rings, marking 50 days until the global sports event begins in the French capital.

Each ring, 9 meters (30 feet) in diameter and made from recycled French steel, was placed on the south side of the 135-year-old tower, overlooking the Seine River.

During the opening ceremony on July 26, thousands of athletes will parade through the city on boats along a 6-kilometer (3.7-mile) route at sunset. The Eiffel Tower will play a significant role in the Paris Games, hosting events such as men’s and women’s beach volleyball at the temporary Eiffel Tower Stadium on the nearby Champ de Mars.

The Olympic and Paralympic medals will feature pieces from a hexagonal chunk of iron taken from the tower. The rings will be lit up every night with 100,000 LED bulbs through the Paralympics, which begin on August 28, 17 days after the Olympics end. The Paralympics will bring together 4,400 athletes from 180 countries competing in 549 events across 22 sports, with many events taking place near landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower, Versailles, and the Grand Palais.
