History Photographed on Instagram: "London first hosted the Olympic Games in 1908.⁠ ⁠ These games, also known as the Games of the IV Olympiad, were originally scheduled to be held in Rome, but were relocated to London due to Italy's organizational and financial challenges. ⁠ ⁠ London was awarded the games in November 1906, giving them less than two years to prepare.⁠ ⁠ London has hosted the Summer Olympics a total of three times, also hosting in 1948 and 2012.⁠ ⁠ Credit: @teamgb"
