Olympic towns, where athletes live during the Summer and Winter Olympics, may be passed through history. The International Olympic Committee (IOS) intends to reduce the cost of holding the Olympic Games, so it can refuse the Olympic towns. The IOC has sent letters to the National Olympic Committees of 28 major countries to find out their attitude towards it. According to the official website of the IOC, 4 out of 6 countries, claimed to host the 2024 Olympic Games, refused to pay the financial expenses. Finally, the games were entrusted to Paris, which will mark the 100th anniversary of the Olympic Games this year. Moreover, the cost of hosting the summer Olympic Games in Tokyo is about $ 16 billion, which is six times more than the initial calculation.
