Paris Games 2024: Artistic Gymnastics Celebrated By Google With A Typically Parisian Doodle. Check It Out
Paris Olympics 2024: A total of 54 nations are participating in this year's gymnastics events. India is notably absent from the lineup.
Paris Olympics 2024: Google Doodle has been celebrating the many sporting competitions being held at the Olympics this year. On Monday, July 29, Google came up with a cute Doodle that is as Parisian as it gets. When you think of Paris (or most European cities with a river cutting through the middle, for that matter), the first thing that might pop in your head are ornate windows adorned with plants, and perhaps a cat cosily slumbering on the windowsills. Well, Google has managed to bring out that vibe beautifully in its latest creation.
Check out the animated Google Doodle below. Is the bluebird a nod to celebrated Gold contender Simone Biles of the United States? Believe what you want.
