The Confucius Institute at the University of Aveiro is promoting a new cycle of thematic workshops dedicated to Chinese culture, which will run between September 2026 and January 2027. The program is aimed at both the academic community and the general public, inviting everyone to discover different cultural expressions from China.

The workshops cover a wide range of topics, including traditional Chinese games, the art of tea, Peking Opera, traditional clothing and the popular Square Dancing. This diversity of topics allows participants to explore multiple aspects of Chinese culture.

The sessions are designed to combine three fundamental components: theoretical knowledge, practical demonstration and active participation of the participants. This approach aims to provide an immersive and interactive experience, allowing participants to engage directly with the cultural traditions presented.

Dos jogos tradicionais ao chá, passando pela Ópera de Pequim, pelo vestuário tradicional e pela popular Dança de Praça, as sessões combinam conhecimento, demonstração e participação prática.

Torrevieja Salt Lake: Looks Like a Scene from the "Barbie" Movie, But It's Very Real (and It's Right Next to Portugal)

The Salt Lake of Torrevieja, in Alicante, Spain, transforms into a vibrant pink setting during summer, particularly between August and September, due to a natural phenomenon involving Dunaliella salina microalgae and bacteria that produce carotenoids under conditions of high salinity and evaporation. The phenomenon, which has even attracted NASA's attention, is part of the Natural Park of the Lagunas de La Mata y Torrevieja, where salt pans managed by the Unión Salinera de España remain active. Visits are free along the trails and viewpoints, with guided train tours available for €12 for adults. From Portugal, there are direct flights to Alicante from €51 from Lisbon and €98 from Porto.

This opinion article from the Jornal do Algarve presents a cynical reflection on the language used in politics and sports, comparing how expressions like "strategic surprises and offensive posture," used by Iran regarding the United States, could easily be applied to football. The author notes how the discourse of footballers and politicians is frequently empty and permissive of multiple interpretations. In a second part, it addresses the issue of plastic recycling in Portugal, criticizing those who demand more recycling without confronting the practical problems of overflowing bins and collection machines at supermarkets, in a clearly ironic tone about the contradiction between demands and practices.

Communist scientists built a Coca-Cola during the Cold War. Today it is a success

During the Cold War, while the United States and its allies consumed Coca-Cola, communist countries created their own versions of the drink. Scientists from the Soviet Union, Romania and other communist countries developed their own cola recipes, often using local ingredients and adapting the taste to local consumer preferences. Some of these products, such as Kvas or Romanian cola, became so popular that they are still consumed today and are considered cultural successes, demonstrating how ideological rivalry extended even to the details of everyday consumption.
