The Olympic Flame is a symbol of the Olympic Games, representing peace, unity, and friendship among nations. It is lit at the Ancient Olympia site in Greece, where the original games were held. The flame is then carried by a relay of torchbearers to the host city, culminating in its lighting at the opening ceremony. Once in the host city, the flame is displayed in the Olympic Stadium throughout the duration of the games. The flame is kept burning until the closing ceremony, signifying the spirit of competition and the celebration of athletic achievement.
