Daily Edition
Official observances, world days, local context, and everyday celebrations for people who need something worth reading, sharing, or talking about today.
A day for fresh air, street sounds, weather changes, curtains, neighbors, and the way a room becomes part of a place.
Not a national holiday, but a regional celebration in the Krāslava region of eastern Latvia, where the Latgalian culture is preserved. The Latgalians are a distinct cultural group with their own language (Latgalian), their own traditions, and their own food. The celebration includes traditional Latgalian songs, dances, and the baking of Latgalian bread. The Latgalian language is recognized as a historical variant of Latvian, and it is spoken by 150,000 people.
