Coliseu de Roma reabre com apenas 300 visitantes na reabertura em meio à pandemia


Local turístico mais visitado da Itália, que normalmente recebe cerca de 20 mil pessoas por dia, ficou quase 3 meses fechado. Público usa máscara na reabertura do Coliseu de Roma Filippo Monteforte / AFP Depois de quase três meses de fechamento devido à pandemia de Covid-19, o Coliseu de Roma, o local turístico mais visitado da Itália, reabriu ao público nesta segunda-feira (1º), embora apenas algumas dezenas de pessoas tenham visitado o monumento. Apenas cerca de 300 pessoas reservaram seus ingressos on-line, muito longe das 20.000 que costumam lotar diariamente o Anfiteatro Flaviano (da dinastia Flaviana), de quase 2.000 anos de antiguidade. O monumento é classificado como Patrimônio Mundial da Humanidade. “É um símbolo de Roma e da Itália”, diz a arquiteta-chefe do local, Alfonsina Russo, que considerou “surreais” esses três meses sem público. “Mas foi a sensação do vazio que destacou a grande beleza do lugar e sua fragilidade”, acrescentou, em conversa com a AFP. Em tempos normais, quase 20.000 turistas, 70% estrangeiros, visitam diariamente o Coliseu, situado no final do Fórum Romano (ou Imperial), aos pés do Monte Palatino (uma das sete colinas de Roma). Coliseu de Roma ficou quase 3 meses fechado Filippo Monteforte/AFP “Aproveitamos a ausência de turistas estrangeiros para passear”, disse Pierluigi, um morador de Roma que chegou com sua esposa “para uma primeira visita” ao Coliseu. “Queríamos ver algumas pedras antigas”, explica Luca, que também foi com a família, surpreso com a procura limitada na reabertura. Medidas sanitárias adequadas foram estabelecidas, com itinerários seguros, reservas obrigatórias e horários modificados e adaptados. Aproveitando o público escasso, alguns trabalhadores locais preencheram alguns buracos nas paredes antigas com argamassa, enquanto um gato se escondia entre as ruínas. No domingo à noite, o Coliseu foi iluminado de verde, branco e vermelho, as cores da bandeira italiana. A Itália está lentamente suspendendo o confinamento. Crucial para sua economia, o setor de turismo foi duramente afetado, em um país que registrou quase 33.500 mortes por COVID-19. As fronteiras devem ser abertas em 3 de junho.

Duke Kahanamoku reflects on surfing, Olympics, and old Hawaii in 1966 interview

Duke Kahanamoku is the most influential surfer of all time and is often hailed as the father of modern surfing. There is nearly no one questioning these titles. Recently, Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) Hawaii unveiled a never-before-seen interview with the legendary surfer and Olympic swimmer. In the 1966 episode of Pau Hana Years, a seminal Hawaii television program that aired on KHET-TV (now PBS Hawaii) for 16 years, running from 1966 until 1982, Bob Barker chats with Duke Kahanamoku, then 76. The conversation drifts from royal ancestry to Olympic lanes, from Hollywood sets to a surfboard shaped by hand, tracing the outline of a life that helped define modern surfing and Hawaii's public image in the 20th century. And if you know little about the man who dreamed of getting surfing into the Olympic Games, this is a precious piece of history. A name with history, worn casually The interview starts with Kahanamoku explaining that "Duke" is not a title but his giv...

The hydrodynamics of surfboard fins

Have you ever wondered why a surfboard fin looks like that? It is a single or a set of fixed blades or keels located under a board, near the tail, often no bigger than a hand. Yet that small surface is where much of the surfboard's behavior takes place. Speed, hold, looseness, and the feeling of control all trace back to how water moves around fins. The physics of surfboard fins falls under hydrodynamics, the study of how fluids behave in motion. So, according to science, they feature a shape designed to turn flowing water into several forces. Let's take a look at what's at stake when fins and water interact. Lift and the feeling of control One of the key variables in hydrodynamic terms involving surfboard fins is lift. When a surfer leans into a turn, the board tilts and the fins meet the water at an angle. The angle is enough to create a pressure difference between the two sides of the fin. Water speeds up on one side and slows on the other. The result is a sidewa...

How paddleboarding transforms your body and mind

Adventure is on our doorstep. With so many different bodies of water available to paddleboarders, from city canals to coastal routes, we can find adventure in places much closer to home than people might initially expect. According to the Canal and River Trust, 50 percent of people in England and Wales live within just eight kilometers of a canal or river, and eight million people live less than one kilometer away. I had lived within just a few kilometers of the Leeds and Liverpool Canal for years and never really explored it before stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) came into my life . The challenge created both a new perspective and a deeper love for where I lived and the areas which I passed through. On my coast-to-coast journey, I slept in my own bed for two nights as the route passed through my then hometown of Skipton, yet I felt I was on a grand journey of discovery. We are braver, stronger, and more resilient than we think. SUP not only helps us feel more connected to our va...
