Although this is one of the biggest sporting events in the world, it is not only the sport itself that has the world buzzing.
News that rapper Snoop Dogg will be one of the torchbearers, and speculation about who will perform at the grand opening ceremony has also sparked discussion.
The latest thing to grab the attention of fans is the team outfits.
One team outfit in particular had the internet going crazy – Mongolia.
Since their unveiling last week, the country's opening and closing ceremony outfits have created a buzz on social media, showcasing intricately embroidered vests, pleated robes, and accessories inspired by traditional attire.
