Description
"The fact that there is not really fire, but electricity and water, it looks like a flame, it's really beautiful", says Muriel Lévy, a tourist from South France.
Thousands of people gather in front of the Tuileries gardens in Paris on Monday to watch the Olympic cauldron rise into the air as night falls on the French capital.
Mayor of Paris Anne Hidalgo told the France Bleu broadcaster that she hoped the hugely popular hot air balloon could find a permanent home in Paris, as could the statues of 10 French women that were part of the Olympics opening ceremony last week. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
