The Olympic Torch Arrives in Russia

On Sunday the 6^th October the Olympic torch arrived in Russia for the Winter Olympics 2014.

The Winter Olympics start next February in Sochi and it is the first time the flame has been in Russia. The flame will take 123 days to cross 65,000km by 14,000 torch bearers. The torch’s journey will even include a trip into space, a trip to the North Pole on an atomic-powered icebreaker and ascend the highest peak in Europe, Mount Elbrus!

The torch was lit in Greece by the sun’s rays.

The Sochi 2014 President Dmitry Chernyshenko said “Russia, for the first time in history, received one of the most important, well-known symbols in the world – the Olympic Flame.

We are proud that our Russian torch relay will be unique.”
