2020 Summer Olympics cauldron, Olympic cauldron at National Stadium, Tokyo, Japan

The Olympic cauldron features a spherical structure with moving panels that open like flower petals when receiving the Olympic flame.

Tennis player Naomi Osaka lit the cauldron during the opening ceremony of the delayed Tokyo Olympics on July 23, 2021.

The design incorporates steps that represent Mount Fuji and references the natural elements of Japanese traditional aesthetics.

Visitors can view the permanent cauldron installation near the Ariake West Canal, adjacent to the Japan National Stadium.

This cauldron marks the first use of hydrogen as fuel in Olympic history, produced through solar-powered electrolysis in Fukushima Prefecture.
