Paris has reopened the Seine River for public swimming after a century-long ban. Three designated swimming zones have been established along the river, marking a significant step in the city's efforts to improve water quality and leave a lasting legacy from the upcoming Olympic Games. This initiative allows Parisians to once again enjoy swimming in the Seine, a practice that was prohibited for over 100 years due to pollution concerns. The project represents a major investment in urban renewal and environmental sustainability.
