Rio Torch Relay Day 87: Torch Continues Through Rio de Janeiro

On each day of the official Olympic torch relay, carrying the Olympic flame to the Olympic cauldron in Rio de Janeiro, the Rio2016 Facbeook page is posting brilliant and spectacular images from one of the world’s unique and most beautiful landscapes. Each day until August 5th, we will bring you these stunning images.

Note: We originally posted that the torch travelled through six cities on day 87, when in fact it travelled through just three. This was due to Rio 2016 posting the wrong names of cities in their daily post. On day 87, the torch actually travelled through Ilha Grande, Resende and Barra-Mansa.

 

Check out the images from day 87:
