Hoje nossa viagem falada vai nos levar até o Norte do Brasil, a maior região do país em extensão territorial, onde a Amazônia domina a paisagem e inspira o coração.
São sete estados incríveis: Acre, Amapá, Amazonas, Pará, Rondônia, Roraima e Tocantins. Lá, a natureza é majestosa, e a vida — muitas vezes rural, outras vezes urbana — tem um ritmo todo seu, marcado por rios e por lendas antigas.
Ao falar do Norte, a primeira imagem que vem à mente é a Floresta Amazônica, a maior floresta tropical do mundo — um verdadeiro veículo verde cheio de biodiversidade. Ela abriga milhares de espécies de plantas, animais e insetos que você não verá em nenhum outro lugar.
E por falar em rios… O Rio Amazonas, com seus afluentes, forma a maior bacia hidrográfica do planeta. É como se o mundo respirasse ali. Barcos, pequenas comunidades ribeirinhas, peixes gigantes como o pirarucu… Tudo isso faz parte do cotidiano de quem vive às margens desses rios — inclusive em Manaus, a “cidade da selva”.
E você sabia que em alguns lugares do Norte existe a ocorrência da cheia e da seca, e as casas ficam sobre palafitas para acompanhar o sobe e desce da água? É uma adaptação incrível — simples e elegante.
A cultura do Norte é rica em festividades e expressões artísticas. Tem o Festival Folclórico do Amazonas, o boi-bumbá no Pará — com destaque para o famoso Boi-Bumbá de Parintins — e tradições indígenas que mantêm vivas suas línguas, opiniões e saberes.
E a gastronomia… ah, essa é de emocionar! Tem tacacá, maniçoba, pato no tucupi, jambu, além de belíssimos frutos amazônicos, como o açaí, o cupuaçu e o tucumã. O gosto é forte, exótico e inesquecível.
A região também é símbolo de resistência — tanto ecológica quanto cultural. Comunidades indígenas, quilombolas e ribeirinhas lutam para preservar a floresta e suas tradições, enfrentando desafios para manter o equilíbrio entre o homem e a natureza.

Ancient Egyptians loved and respected cats, believing they brought good luck.

Some families even dressed their cats in jewelry, and mummified them after death. They would mourn the death of their cat by shaving off their eyebrows, and continue to mourn until their eyebrows grew back.

Inspired by this ancient love for cats, the Shanghai Museum in China held a special event called Meowseum Nights.

Held 10 times during last summer and fall, the event invited 200 cats and 2,000 people to explore the exhibition On Top of the Pyramid: The Civilization of Ancient Egypt.

Some of the artifacts shown in the exhibition came from a temple discovered years ago in Egypt. The temple was for Bastet, an Egyptian goddess who could change into a cat. This gave the Shanghai Museum another reason to use cats as the theme for their event.

Museum director Chu Xiaobo said that the event was created to bring cat lovers to the museum, as in Shanghai, where there are over a million pet cats, cat-friendly public spaces are rare.

"There are dog parks, dog brunches, but not that much for cat parents to do with their pets," Wen Liuli, a visitor to the exhibition, told The Art Newspaper.

The museum took measures to keep all visitors and artifacts safe. Cats had to stay in strollers or bags, but there were certain areas where people could take their cats out for photos, such as in front of a statue of Bastet. All the other artifacts were kept behind glass.

The museum also had vets, doctors, and even an ambulance on-site, and over 80 animal welfare workers attended each night to help and give advice.

While the museum doesn't plan to hold another Meowseum Night, Chu hopes it might inspire other museums to try similar ideas.

"Cat people now have a special affection for the Shanghai Museum," he said.
