The flame will be on show from Tuesday at the Japanese Olympic Museum, located next to the National Stadium purpose-built for the Games which were due to take place in 2020 but were rescheduled for 2021 due to the Covid-19 outbreak. The organisers have chosen to display the flame at the JOC museum, held in a small lantern in the corner of the lobby.
The organisers have not announced details of the torch relay. The original 121-day plan had the torch travelling to all of Japan’s 47 prefectures.
