Tokyo Olympic Games will open on July 23.
The event will be unique as most games will be performed without spectators under the COVID-19 pandemic,
Athletes are asked to stay only in the competition sites, training facilities or athlete village. Going out of the village is banned to avoid contacts with ordinary people in Japan.
I visited the Olympic Stadium in the central part of Tokyo, where the opening ceremony and truck and field competitions will be held.
The Olympic ring is places in a space across the road from the stadium. (See als the top photo)
People were taking photos.
Access to the stadium is restricted. Only accredited people and vehicles were allowed to move in from the checking points. (see also the 3rd photo)
Volunteer staff members were working there.
Pictures drawn by kids were displayed on the wall.
There is a count-down clock in front of Tokyo Station. (See also the 2nd photo)
The number of visitors were not so many.
We will have the unprecedented games in three days.
