Even though the Olympic Games of 2012 that are being held in London, England have not begun yet, I want to talk about the next Olympic Games that will be held in Rio, Brazil in 2016. The President of Brazil announced the master plan of the city’s Olympic Park. Brazil is trying to create a park where all the events will be able to be held while there is other space for future developments can be built. Construction of the Olympic Park will be built around existing facilities such as the Maria Lenk Aquatic Centre, the Olympic Velodrome and the Olympic Arena. Brazil held a national competition of sixty entries from eighteen countries of who can come up with the best design for the Olympic Park. Carlos Arthur Nuzman, the President of Brazil want this park to create a long-term legacy to leave for Rio. President Nuzman says, “The Olympic Park legacy for Brazilian sports will be a training centre modelled after the successful experiences of the world’s greatest sporting powers”. The Olympic Games to come are trying to top the incredible and most memorable Olympics that China held in 2008. I am really looking forward to watch the talent that our country offers to the rest of the world.
