After spending the last four years in London, the Olympic flag has now arrived in Rio de Janeiro.

Where it is on display at the Palacio da Cidade, Rio's ceremonial city hall.

One of the first stops for the flag after its arrival in Brazil was Brasilia and the Palácio do Planalto, where it was presented to the President of Brazil, Dilma Rouseff, in the company of two of Brazil's Olympic medallists, boxing brothers Esquiva and Yamaguchi Falcio, who won silver and bronze medals in London respectively.
