Urednika

Dragi čitatelji, upravo pred sobom držite prvo izdanje vašeg i našeg magazina Furaj.ba. Svijet u kojem živimo nije idealno mjesto niti je život vesela šarena slikovnica. Ipak, nije ni tako sumoran i mračan kako nerijetko mislimo. U svakom, ali baš u svakom kutku čarobne planete Zemlje, postoje mjesta koja nas doslovno ostavljaju bez daha, neopisiva čuda prirode, fantastični produkti nečije genijalnosti.

Mi vam želimo otkriti i pokazati ovu lijepu stranu.

I ne, nećemo vam nuditi ružičaste naočale niti uljepšavati stvarnost, jer ona može biti lijepa i bez naše pomoći. Trebate se samo otisnuti, staviti prst na globus i otkriti svoj komadić raja.

U ovom našem i vašem prvom broju, bavimo se, a čime bismo drugim, nego zimom i zimskim radostima. Čista, bijela i hladna ima moć da zagrije dušu, navuče nam osmijehe na lica i probudi dijete koje smo skrili negdje u sebi.

Ako, kao i mi, volite zimu, krenite s nama u skijašku avanturu u Austriju, odabrali smo za vas deset najljepših skijališta u ovoj zemlji. Odmah nakon toga, produžite do Njemačke i upoznajte se sa prekrasnim prazničnim običajima. Nakon toga avionom pravac – Turska. Ne, ne vodimo vas na vrele pješčane plaže, to ćete još malo sačekati, već na neka od najljepših skijališta u ovoj zemlji.

A onda se vratite u našu i vašu Bosnu i Hercegovinu. Odaberite gomile snijega zasljepljujuće bjeline od Jahorine, Bjelašnice, Vlašića, Blidinja, Rostova, a kada se premorite, a istovremeno napunite energijom, krenite lagano prema Kupresu da se divite krdima gracioznih poludivljih konja koji slobodno lutaju Kupreškim poljem, napijte se vode i grijte na toplom blagajskom suncu, obiđite srednjovjekovni grad Jajce, zaljubite se u Srebrenik. Krenite sa nama i potražite ljubavnu sreću na grobu tragično preminule ljepotice Safikade u Banjoj Luci, a onda zavirite u Vijećnicu.

Naši sugovornici vodit će vas na najviše vrhove svijeta, biti vaši vodiči kroz Kinu, a za vas smo istražili destinacije na koje iz Sarajeva, Banje Luke i Zenice možete krenuti na ludo putovanje za najluđu noć.

Svijet je šarena lopta. Budite, zajedno s nama, najveseliji detalj na njoj.

S novim brojem, očekujte nas u proljeće.

Editor’s LETTER Dear readers, Right now you are holding the first edition of your and our magazine Furaj.ba. The World we live in is neither an ideal place nor joyful, vibrant picture book. Still, it is neither gloomy nor dark as we often think. In every, but literally every part of the magical Earth, there are places that leave us breathless, indescribable wonders of nature, amazing products of someone’s geniality.

We want to expose and show this beautiful side.

And no, we won’t offer you pink sunglasses or embellished reality, because it can be beautiful without our assistance. You only need to let yourself go, put your finger on the globe and find your piece of Paradise.

In this first your and our edition, we engage in, what else than, winter and winter joys. Pure, white and cold, it has the power to warm up a soul, put smiles on our faces and wake up a child that we have hid somewhere within ourselves.

In case you love winter, same as we do, come along with us in the skiing adventure in Austria, we picked up ten most stunning ski slopes for you. Right after, proceed to Germany and meet amazing, holiday customs. Then, go by plane straight to Turkey. No, we don’t take you to hot, sandy beaches, you will have to wait a little longer for that, but on some of the most beautiful ski slopes in this country.

Then, come back to our Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Choose piles of snow of stunningly white Jahorina, Bjelasnica, Vlasic, Blidinje, Rostovo and when you get tired, plus you renew your energy, head slowly to Kupres to admire herds of semi wild horses which wander freely over Kupres Field, to drink water and warm up in mild Blagaj’ sun, to see medieval city of Jajce, fall in love with Srebrenik.

Come with us and discover your love happiness on the tomb of tragically passed away beauty Safikada in Banja Luka and afterwards peep into Vijecnica.

Our collocutors will take you to the highest peaks in the World, be your guides through China and furthermore, we searched destinations for you where you can start off your crazy journey for the craziest night from Sarajevo, Banja Luka and Zenica.

The World is a multicoloured ball. Be, together with us, the most cheerful piece on it.

Expect us with the new edition in spring.

INTERVJU / INTERVIEW

JUKKA HONKAVUORI, THE RACING DRIVER AND THE DRIVING INSTRUCTOR AT PORSCHE

NJEGA NE MOŽETE ZAUSTAVITI! NE POTIČE IZ IMUĆNE PORODICE KOJA JE IMALA NOVAC DA INVESTIRA U SKUP SPORT KOJIM SE POČEO BAVITI JOŠ S PET GODINA. PROŠLOGODIŠNJI POBJEDNIK PORSCHE GT3 CUP-A, BIO JE ODLUČAN U SVOJIM ŽIVOTNIM NAKANAMA. POSLIJE PADOVA BI SE DIZAO I OPET KRETAO. ZATO JE I USPIO Razgovarala: Elma Zećo Fotografije: Porsche BH d.o.o.

K

ada sam bio dječak, otac me je poveo, na kako je rekao, jedno mjesto na kojem nikada nisam bio. Ukoliko mi se dopadne, otići ćemo opet, a ako ne, bit će nam to samo lijepo iskustvo. Tako sam se našao na stazi za karting, sjeo u mali karting auto, a tu je bio i instruktor, koji je držao uže vezano za auto kako bi bio siguran da neću otići. Bilo mi je lijepo i od tada smo ljeti dolazili skoro svakodnevno.

Kasnije ću se početi trkati i s autima, prisjetio se u intervjuu za Furaj.ba pobjednik Porsche GT3 Cup-a 2014., Jukka Honkavuori (24), vozač utrka i već tri godine instruktor u Porscheu iz Finske, koji se počeo trkati već s pet godina.

SLIJEDITE STRAST Šta je potrebno da biste postali vozač utrka i da li je taj put skup?

– Svi mi imamo drugačije priče.

Dolazim iz dijela Finske gdje ljudi obično idu na skijaške skokove ili ice hockey. Moj put do postanka vozača utrka bio je težak. Moja porodica nije bila imućna i nisu mi mogli tek tako omogućiti da pratim svoje želje. Ako krenete iz takve pozicije, jedini način da uspijete je da slijedite svoju strast. Ako to silno želite, ako naporno radite, može se doći do cilja. Bit će uspona i padova.

Kada padnete, ustanite i krenite opet. To je jedini način.

Sjećate li se prve pobjede?

– Bilo je to jako davno, mislim da sam imao šest-sedam godina. U tim godinama, da bi se osjećao nevjerovatno, ne moraš uvijek biti pobjednik. Kasnije, kada sam se trkao većim autima, uvijek sam išao na pobjedu. Tako to ide.

PORSCHE - NAJPOUZDANIJI AUTO Šta ima Porsche što drugi automobili nemaju?

– Porsche je snažan brend s bogatom historijom, ali nije riječ samo o tome. Ako bih ga opisivao, rekao bih da je auto za trkaće staze, ali i auto za svakodnevnu vožnju.

Kako god, Porsche je najpouzdanije auto i u to sam potpuno siguran.

U čemu vidite najveću prednost svog posla?

– U ovo što radim bila je uključena cijela porodica. Mnogo sam putovao sa ocem i skupa smo se suočavali sa dobrim i lošim vremenima.

Neko vrijeme su u moj posao bile uključene majka i moje tri sestre.

Danas zbog posla uglavnom putujem sam, ali sam stekao mnogo prijatelja širom svijeta. Kada jednog dana uđem u godine, imat ću i sjajne uspomene.

PUTEM OSVAJAČA Kako provodite slobodno vrijeme?

– Uživam provoditi vrijeme sa djevojkom, koja, kao i ja, uživa u putovanjima. Volimo otići negdje gdje nismo bili, što ne mora uvijek biti daleko, može i do vikendice, samo da se opustimo jer je važno udaljiti se od užurbanog tempa.

Finska ima divnu prirodu, pa nam ne nedostaje lijepih mjesta za odmor.

Jeste li inače skloni brzoj vožnji?

– Ne. Brzo vozim samo na trkaćim stazama, ali u saobraćaju sam veoma oprezan. Želim biti siguran i želim da svi drugi budu sigurni.

Koja je Vaša omiljena turistička destinacija?

– Kako dolazim iz veoma hladne zemlje, uživam boraviti u toplim krajevima. Recimo, Dubai mi se jako dopada. Tamo i generalno na Bliskom Istoku imam mnogo prijatelja. Ima nekoliko „toplih“ zemalja u kojima nisam bio, ali planiram.

Kakvi su Vam utisci o Sarajevu?

– Grad i njegova priroda jako su lijepi. U mojoj zemlji nema planina, imamo samo brda, što je također lijepo, ali sam uvijek volio otići na mjesta gdje se mogu vidjeti planine.

Centar grada mi se dopada i ljudi su prijatni. Šta je Vaš najveći san?

– Osoba sam koja uvijek stremi ka višem. To je mentalitet vozača utrka. Uvijek želimo osvojiti više i ne želimo se zaustaviti. Sretan sam kako stvari u mom životu stoje sada.

Kada govorimo o trkanju, volio bih se trkati u Le Mansu. Možda jednoga dana da budem i factory vozač u trkanju, a volio bih nastaviti putovati radeći ono što volim.

MUŠKARCI I ŽENE ZA VOLANOM U suštini, mala je razlika. Svi ti stereotipi o ženama kao lošim vozačima su pogrešni. Naravno, ima i žena loših vozača, ali i muškaraca. Dok žene započinju laganim koracima, što je bolje, muškarci žele odmah brzo krenuti, iako se još nisu ni upoznali s autom. Žene žele imati vremena i ulaziti u sistem polako. Stereotipi nemaju smisla.

INTERVJU / INTERVIEW Jukka Honkavuori, the racing driver and the driving instructor at Porsche

YOU CANNOT STOP HIM!

DOESN’T COME FROM THE RICH FAMILY THAT HAD MONEY TO FINANCE THE RICH SPORT HE HAD STARTED DOING SINCE HE WAS FIVE. LAST YEAR’S WINNER OF THE PORSCHE GT3 CUP, WAS DETERMINED AND PERSISTENT IN HIS LIFE AMBITION. AFTER DOWNS, HE WOULD RISE AGAIN AND HE CONTINUED TO PURSUE HIS DREAM. THAT IS THE REASON HE SUCCEDED. goal. There will be ups and downs.

When there are downs, stand up and go again. That is the only way.

W

hen I was a little boy, my father took me to a place he said I had never been before. If I liked it, we would go again and if not, it would be just a nice experience.

That was the moment when I found myself on the kart track, I sat in a small kart car and there was also a driving instrucor who was holding the rope tied to the car to ensure I won't escape. It felt good and ever since then, we would come every day during summer. Later, I started racing with other cars, remembered during his interview for Furaj.ba last year winner of the Porsche GT3 Cup of 2014, Jukka Honkavuori (24), the racing driver and the driving instructor in Porsche in Finland, who started racing when he was five.

GO AFTER YOUR PASSION What is required to become a racing driver and is that an expensive life path?

Every racing driver has a different story. I come from the part of Finland where people usually go ski jumping or play ice hockey. My road of becoming a racing driver was rather tough. My family was not wealthy so they couldn't support me so easily to pursue my dream. If you start from such a situation, the only way to succeed is to follow your passion. If you really want it, if you put all your effort, you can achieve your 16

Do you remember your first victory?

It was so long ago, I think I was six or seven... At that age, you don't necessarily have to win every time to make you feel incredible. Later, when I began racing with bigger cars, my only goal was to win.

That's how it goes.

PORSCHE – THE MOST RELAIBLE VEHICLE What is it that Porsche has and other cars don't?

- Porsche is a strong brand with the rich history, but that's not all. In case I would try to describe it, I would say it is a mixture of a sports car, adjusted for driving races, but as well as for everyday driving. Anyway, Porche is the most reliable vehicle and I am completely sure of that.

What is the greatest advantage of your job?

- What I do, included all family. I travelled a lot with my father so we faced both the good and the bad times together. For certain period, my mother and my three sisters were involved. Today, mostly because of the job, I travel alone but I made friends all over the World.

One day when I get old, it will be nice to recall everything.

Along the road of the conquerer What do you do in your free time?

- I enjoy spending time with my girlfriend who also likes travelling. We like going to places we haven't been before, but it doesn't have to be a dis-

tant location, it can be our weekend cottage where we can just relax and go away from the busy everyday life.

Nature in Finland is beautiful so we don't miss beautiful places to go to.

Are you fond of fast driving in your private life?

- No. I drive fast only on race tracks but I am very cautious in the traffic.

I want to be safe and I want others to be safe as well.

What is your favourite tourist destination?

- Since I come from the very cold country, of course I enjoy spending time in warmer places. For instance, I like Dubai. Generally, I have a lot of friends in the Middle East. There are a few „warm“ countries where I have never been which I plan to visit.

What do you think of Sarajevo?

- The city and its nature are beautiful.

We don't have mountains in my country, we have hills that are also beautiful but I always wanted to go to a place where you can see mountains.

Downtown area is very beautiful and I like people who are so kind.

What is your greatest dream?

- I am a person that always strives for more. That is the mentality of a racing driver. We always want to win more and we never want to stop. I am happy with the current situation. When it comes to racing, I would love to race in La Mans.

Perhaps, one day I could become factory driver in racing but I would also like to continue traveling in the future and do what I love.

men and women drivers - Basically, there is a slight difference between them. All those stereotypes that women are bad drivers are wrong. Of course, there are women who are bad drivers but there are men as well. While women start off slowly, what is better whereas men want to start off fast even though they haven’t got to know the car. Women want to have time and to go into the system slowly. Stereotypes are absurd’.

Bjelašnica ZBOG IZUZETNO OŠTRIH ZIMA, 0,7°C VODI SE KAO PROSJEČNA GODIŠNJA TEMPERATURA NA OVOJ PLANINI

J

edan od vodećih ski centara u našoj zemlji je Bjelašnica, mjesto gdje su se na 14. Zimskim olimpijskim igrama u alpskom skijanju, u muškoj konkurenciji, takmičile same legende skijaškog sporta.

Nalazi se u centralnom dijelu Bosne i Hercegovine, udaljena samo 25 kilometara od Sarajeva. Olimpijsku planinu s privlačnim i do nekoliko metara visokim snježnim smetovima karakteriše izuzetna promjenjivost klime, tako da je na njoj moguće doživjeti tri godišnja doba u jednom danu. Zbog izuzetno oštrih zima, 0,7°C vodi se kao prosječna godišnja temperatura na ovoj planini.

SKIJAŠKA STAZA Staza ima za sve profile – od početničkih plavih, na koje vuku tanjirići i sidra, do onih ozbiljnih, olimpijskih crno-crvenih koje su izazov i za najbolje skijaše. Do ovih staza se stiže trosjedom, a do vrha planine možete produžiti ski liftovima.

NOĆNO SKIJANJE Kako Bjelašnica ima reflektore, skijaši mogu uživati i u noćnom skijanju na u potpunosti osvijetljenoj stazi umjerenog nagiba, dužine oko 750 metara.

KAKO DOĆI DO BJELAŠNICE Automobilom…

Do Bjelašnice se dolazi dobro održavanom cestom iz pravca aerodroma iza kojega, nakon pet kilometara, veliki znak upućuje na skretanje u desno. Ovdje se skreće prema skijalištu, dok nakon petnaestak kilometara vožnje dolazite na raskrsnicu koja vas jasno upućuje na Bjelašnicu ili Igman.

Skrećete lijevo i dolazite na Babin dol. Desna cesta vodi vas na veliki parking, koji se plaća po satu ili pet maraka po danu, a skrenete li lijevo, stići ćete do mnogobrojnih apartmana i hotela.

Autobusom…

Kompanija Centrotrans-Eurolines otvara autobusku liniju Vijećnica – Bjelašnica 1. januara 2016. Autobus će saobraćati svaki dan s polaskom u 9.00 sati, dok je povratak predviđen u 16.00 sati. Linija će biti otvorena do marta 2016.

VLASIC- HEALING MOUNTAIN

Adrenaline skiing along the central Babanovci THIS MOUNTAIN, BESIDES BEING VERY SIGNIFICANT TOURIST DESTINATION, WAS NAMED AFTER ITS NOMAD PEOPLE VLASI. IT IS ESPECIALLY POPULAR DURING WINTER VLAŠIĆ - LJEKOVITA PLANINA

Adrenalinsko skijanje centrom Babanovca OVA PLANINA, INAČE ZNAČAJNA TURISTIČKA DESTINACIJA BIH, DOBILA JE NAZIV PO NOMADSKOM STANOVNIŠTVU VLASIMA. POSEBNO JE AKTUELNA ZIMI

lašić je jedna velika prirodna tvrđava, čije su padine pogodne za različite sportove – od alpskog i nordijskog skijanja, noćnog skijanja, snow safarija, sankanja do noćnih provoda.

Udaljen je 28 km od Travnika s nadmorskom visinom od 1.943 metara, koliko je visok najviši vrh Paljenik. Često ga posjećuju i paraglajderi, a poznato je da se vlašićki zrak zbog cjelokupnog ambijenta preporučuje svima onima koji imaju problemima s disajnim organima.

BABANOVAC Ovaj dio godinama je bio poznat po međunarodnom Pokal Vlašić Evropa Kupu održavanom na 90-metarskoj skakaonici, koja spada u jednu od najjužnijih i najprirodnijih skakaonica u Evropi.

Ski centar raspolaže s pet skijaških liftova, stazom za hodanje na skijama u ukupnoj dužini od 15 kilometara, kao i četiri skakaonice. Na

Vlašiću ima deset i pol kilometara uređenih staza, većinom plavo-crvenog karaktera, od čega su dvije lake, dvije poluteške. Maksimalna visinska razlika je 15 posto.

Najduža staza na Vlašiću iznosi 3.800 metara, a jedna od staza prolazi kroz sami centar mjesta i nastavlja se prema polaznoj stanici lifta. Skijanje kroz ulicu, koja je zimi zatvorena za automobile, pravi je doživljaj. No, ovdje je ipak potreban oprez zbog mnogo djece koja se sankaju.

Skijališta na Babanovcu su idealna kako za duže boravke tako i za vikend i jednodnevne posjete za ljude iz okoline. Skijaši početnici imaju odlične uvjete za prve korake na skijama, dok oni napredniji u kratkom vremenu mogu savladati sve staze. Iskusnim skijašima, ne sumnjamo, neće ponestati izazova.

Uz sve navedeno, ponuda Babanovca uključujuje također kvalitetne hotelske smještaje, apartmane, vikendice i pansione.

Dolazak na rekreaciono područje Babanovac moguć je iz više pravaca: Arrival to the recreation destination on Babanovac territory is possible from many directions: Travnik – Turbe – Babanovac ● Banja Luka – Skender Vakuf – Babanovac ● Bugojno – Donji Vakuf – Turbe – Babanovac ● Jajce – Donji Vakuf – Turbe – Babanovac.

lasic is huge, natural fortress whose slopes are suitable for different sports- from alpine to Nordic skiing, night skiing, snow safari, sledding to nights out. It is 28km away from Travnik with elevation of 1943 metres which is the highest peak Paljenik. It is often visited by paraglide and it is widely known that due to the complete atmosphere, the Vlasic’s air is recommended for all those people who have problems with respiratory organs.

BABANOVAC For years, this part was known for International Vlasic Cup Contest hosted on 90-meters high ski jump, which is one of the longest and most natural ski jump in Europe. Ski resort has five ski lifts, 15 km of cross-country skiing trails and four ski jumps. Vlasic has 10,5 km long ski slopes, mostly of blue and red character, out of which two are medium-advanced. Maximum height difference is 15%. The longest ski slope is 3.800km and one of the slopes goes through the centre of the place and continues to the starting lift station. Skiing along the street, which is open for cars during winter, is an amazing experience. But still, you have to be really cautions since there are many children on sledding. Skiiing on Babanovac is perfect both for longer vacations as well as for weekends and single day visits of people from the region. Beginners have excellent conditions for their first skiing steps while advanced can overcome all slopes in a short period. Without doubt, more experienced skiers will not miss challenges.

Above all, Babanovac’ offer includes high-quality hotel accommodation, apartments, cottages and boarding houses.

TOP skijališta u Austriji

Sa odličnim ski stazama, strmim liticama, raznolikim neskijaškim zimskim sadržajima i bečkim kolačima, austrijski ski centri imaju za svakog ponešto. Kažu da najzagriženiji skijaši idu u Švicarsku, oni željni provoda u Francusku, a oni koji žele dobro skijanje po nižim cijenama u Bugarsku... U Austriju idu svi oni koji od skijanja očekuju nešto više. Slikovita sela sa alpskim kućama, predjeli sa snježnim vrhovima, nebrojene staze za svačiji ukus i dobrodošlica lokalaca, prednosti su skijanja u ne tako dalekoj Austriji.

Skijanje u Austriji nalazi se u ponudi svake veće turističke agencije.

Mi vam donosimo listu deset najpoznatijih austrijskih skijališta, kao i kratka objašnjenja o tome šta od svakog od njih možete očekivati i dobiti. Izaberite ono koje vam najviše odgovara...

WESTENDORF – ZA POČETNIKE

OBERAU – ZA SKIJANJE I ODMOR

Ako prvi put stajete na skije i ne volite gužvu, na polupraznim stazama Westendorfa naučit ćete prve skijaške korake. Šarmantni gradić ima ski lift koji ka skijalištima kreće iz samog centra i gondolu koja vodi do vrha prostranih ski staza. Iako važi za prilično mirno mjesto u kojem ne očekujte preveliki broj turista, u Westendorfu postoji nekoliko atraktivnih lokala u kojima možete popiti piće ili se okrijepiti posle skijanja.

Oberau se smatra jednim od najmirnijih i najmanje izvikanih ski rizorta u Austriji. Nekoliko malih trgovina i hotela, među kojima i jedan od najpoznatijih alpskih, butik hotela Gasthof Kellerwirt, kafanice u kojima možete uživati uz toplu čokoladu i kolače, glavne su odlike ovog mjesta. Iako obližnji, mnogo veći Niederau, ima više atraktivnih sadržaja i ski staza, u njemu nećete imati onaj osećaj da ste pobjegli od svega - osjećaj izoliranosti usred snježnog, zimskog pejzaža.

FILZMOOS – ZA PORODICE

ST. ANTON – ZA PROVOD I PRIJATELJE

piše: Ivana Dukčević

Porodice sa mlađom djecom, ali i one sa tinejdžerima, uživat će u širokom izboru porodičnih hotela, kao i u specifičnoj živosti samog grada.

Rizort je poznat po odličnim stazama za početnike, školom za snowboard i restoranima koji su ambijent i ponudu hrane potpuno prilagodili porodičnim odmorima. Samo mjesto važi za jedno od najslikovitijih u Austriji, najpoznatije po atrakciji u vidu staze za sankanje i skijanje koja radi i tokom večernjih sati.

Iako dugi niz godina Sveti Anton prati reputacija mjesta sa razvijenim noćnim životom, njegov centar i dalje podsjeća na predivna tirolska mjesta, sa tradicionalnim alpskim kućama, trgovinama odjećom i suvenirima i barovima raspoređenim duž glavne, pješačke ulice. Ski staze iznad mjesta važe za veoma dobre, a sa ski passom kupljenim u Svetom Antonu

možete skijati u čitavom regionu Arlberga, uključujući i Lech, Zurs i Stuben. Ipak, mjesto je najpoznatije po barovima kao što je Krazy Kangaruh, zbog kojeg neki skijaši, poslije noćnog provoda, ponekad propuste dan na bijelim stazama.

restorana. Na samo 15 minuta vožnje od Galtura, u nešto veći Ischgl možete otići u noćni provod.

MAYRHOFEN – ZA DOBAR PROVOD

ALPBACH – ZA ZALJUBLJENE

Na listi najpitoresknijih tirolskih sela u Austriji, Alpbach je ubjedljivi šampion. Kao u nekoj bajci, mjesto je načičkano alpskim kućicama sa drvenim krovovima i žardinjerama na balkonima, koje su tokom ljeta ukrašene nizom visećih muškatli. U istom stilu i gotovo pod konac uređeni su luksuzni butik hoteli, kafeterije i radnje. Sa pozadinskim pejzažem u vidu planinskih vrhova – svi zajedno čine sliku kao sa razglednice. Ipak, ovo je prije mjesto romantičnih zimovanja i dugih šetnji na 20-ak kilometara utabanih staza, nego rizort za ozbiljno skijanje (u Alpbachu postoje samo dvije staze za početnike). U obližnjem mjestu Inneralpbach, do kojeg se može stići kraćom vožnjom autobusom, postoji mnogo bolji izbor ski staza.

GALTUR - ZA ISKUSNE SKIJAŠE

Visoko u planinama Sivretta, nalaze se dva ski rizorta – Ischgl i Galtur.

Važe za skijališta sa izuzetno dobrim, dugačkim i zahtjevnim ski stazama, nekim od najboljih u Austriji. Čuvena ski staza Alp Trida, koja povezuje Austriju sa skijalištem Sauman u Švicarskoj, korištena je i u jednom od serijala o Jamesu Bondu. Samo mjesto Galtur je veoma slikovito, sa drvenim kućicama i baroknom crkvom, kao i nekoliko kafeterija i

LECH – ZA ONE ŽELJNE GLAMURA

Ako vam je odlazak na skijanje samo izgovor kako biste se negdje dobro proveli, možda je Mayrhofen mjesto za vas. Naime, u njemu se svake godine u aprilu, na kraju ski sezone održava najveći evropski muzički festival na snijegu – Snowbombing Festival (Festival snježnih bombi), na kojem često nastupaju i neke poznate rock i pop zvijezde (Fatboy Slim i De la Soul). Ni skijanje u Mayrhofenu nije ništa lošije (Penken i Ahorn), kao ni u mjestu Zillertal, u neposrednoj blizini.

ELLMAU – ZA PORODICE SA MALOM DJECOM

Kombinacija zahtjevnih staza i onih za početnike, idealna je za roditelje sa malom djecom. U mjestu postoji nekoliko ski škola za djecu i ski vrtić za najmlađe. Dok vi jezdite nekom od staza u okruženju, čija je ukupna dužina oko 250 km, uz nadoknadu svoje najmlađe možete povjeriti iskusnom ski instruktoru. Ellmau važi za mirnije mjesto od susjednog rizorta Soll, koje među mlađom populacijom ima reputaciju odredišta za noćni provod.

Nekada omiljeno mjesto za skijanje princeze Diane, koje se pojavljuje i u drugom nastavku filmskog serijala o Bridget Jones, Lech važi za izuzetno elegantan i skup rizort. Alpsko mjesto gdje u kafeterijama, uz toplu čokoladu sa rumom i uz poseban štimung možete čuti zvuke pjesama Frenka Sinatre, poznato je i po ligenštulima ispred restorana, na vrhu ski lifta (Oberlech), gdje oni sa dubljim džepom, odjeveni u brendiranu ski odjeću, hvataju popodnevne zrake sunca. Na desetak minuta vožnje od Lecha, nalazi se Zurs, najekskluzivniji austrijski zimski rizort, na čijim ski stazama i nema puno skijaša.

IGLS – ZA SKIJAŠE, ALI I ONE KOJI NE SKIJAJU

Ako je vaš problem donekle i to što ste na skijanje krenuli u društvu nekoga ko ne skija, Igls je idealno mjesto za vas. Samo kratka vožnja tramvajem dijeli vas od jednog od najljepših i najpoznatijih gradova Austrije – Innsbrucka. Uz obilje mjesta za razgledanje i šoping – i ni traga od skijališta! I bez skija, možete sjesti u gondolu i stići u restoran Panorama na vrhu Patscherkofel, mjesto gde su 1964. i 1976. održane Olimpijske igre.

TOP Ski resorts

in Austria

With exquisite ski slopes, steep cliffs, diverse non-skiing offer and Viennese pastries, Austrian ski resorts have something for everyone.

It is said that the most ardent skiers go to Switzerland, those keen of the nights out go to France and those who want good skiing but at the lower price go to Bulgaria....Those who expect more from skiing go to Austria...Scenic villages with alpine houses, areas with snowy peaks, uncountable slopes for everyone’s taste and a warm welcome from the locals, are all advantages of the skiing in not too distant Austria.

Every bigger travel agency offers skiing in Austria. We give you the list of 10 most famous ski resorts in Austria and a brief explanation about each of them to inform you what to can expect and what you can get from them. Choose the one that best meets your needs....

WESTENDORF – FOR BEGINNERS

for sledding and slopes that are open even during night.

OBERAU – FOR SKIING AND VACATION

If you ski for the first time and you don’t really like the crowd, you will learn your first skiing moves on the half-empty slopes of Westendorf.

The charming city has a ski-lift that leads to the slope from the city centre and a gondola that leads to the peak of large ski slopes. Although it is known as a serene place where you don’t expect large number of tourists, there are a few modern cafés where you can have a drink or you can refresh yourself after skiing.

FILZMOOS – FOR FAMILIES

By Ivana Dukčević

Oberau is considered to be one of the most serene and the least overhyped ski resorts in Austria. A few small cities and hotels, among which is one of the most famous alpine, boutique hotel Gasthof Kellerwirt, cafés where you can enjoy in hot chocolate and cakes, are main features of this place. Even though bigger nearby Niederau has more gripping offers and ski slopes, you will not find there the feeling that you have escaped from everything- the sense of isolation in the middle of the snowy, winter offer.

ST. ANTON – FOR FUN AND FOR FRIENDS

Families with small children but also those with teenagers will enjoy the extensive offer of family hotels as well as the distinctive vibrancy of the city. The resort is famous for excellent ski slopes for beginners, snowboarding school and the restaurants whose ambience and food offer are completely adjusted for family vacations. The place itself stands for the most picturesque one in Austria, most famous for slopes

Although St Anton has a reputation of a city with a vibrant nightlife for many years, its centre still reminds of beautiful Tyrol places, with traditional alpine houses, clothing stores and souvenirs and bars lined

along the main, pedestrian street.

Ski slopes under the place are known as good quality ones and with the ski passes bought in St Anton, you can ski in the whole region of Arlberg, including Lech, Zurs and Stuben. Besides all, the place is famous for the bars such as Crazy Kangaroo which is one of the reasons why some skiers, after a night out, sometimes miss a day on white slopes.

Austria with the ski resort Sauman in Switzerland, was used in one of the series about James Bond. The place Galtur itself is pictorial, with wooden houses and the baroque church as well as with a few cafés and restaurants. Only 15- minute drive from Galtur is bigger Ischgl where you can go night out.

MAYRHOFEN – FOR PARTYING

ALPBACH – FOR ROMANCE

On the list of top picturesque Tyrol villages in Austria, Alpbach is certainly the winner. As in a fairy, the place is packed with alpine houses with wooden roofs and flower pots on balconies that are decorated with pendulous flower pots. Luxurious boutique hotels are decorated in the same style and so are the cafés and stores. With the background landscape in the form of mountain peaks, all together make a picture as being a one on a postcard. Still, this is a place for romance and for hikes on 20km long stamp tracks, than a resort for more advanced skiing during winter holidays (there are only two slopes for beginners in Alpbach). The nearby place Inneralbach, where you can go to by bus, has better offer of ski slopes.

In case going skiing is just an excuse for having good fun somewhere, maybe Mayrhofen is a place for you. Namely, every year in April, at the end of a good ski season, the biggest European music festival on snow-Snowbombing Festiva, is organized, where some big rock and pop stars often sing (Fatboy Slim, De la Soul).

Skiing in Mayrhofen is not of poorer quality (Penken and Ahorn) than skiing in the nearby place Zillertal.

The place that used to be the favourite ski destination of Princess Diana and which is shown in the second sequel of Bridget Jones, Lech is known as an exceptionally elegant and costly ski resort. Alpine place where in the cafés, with rum hot chocolate or with the special atmosphere, you can listen to the sound of Frank Sinatra’s songs, is also known for ligestul in front of the restaurants, on the top of the ski lift (Oberlech), where those with bigger budgets, dressed in branded ski suits, catch the afternoon sun. Ten minutes driving from Lech is Zurs, the most exclusive Austrian ski resort whose ski slopes are not visited by many skiers.

IGLS – FOR SKIERS AND THOSE WHO DON’T SKI

ELLMAU – FOR FAMILIES WITH SMALL CHILDREN

GALTUR - FOR ADVANCED SKIERS

High in the mountains of Sivrett, there are two ski resorts- Ischgl and Galtur. They are known as ski resorts with outstandingly superior, long and challenging ski slopes, some of them are the best in Austria. Famous ski slope Alp Trida, which connects

LECH – FOR THOSE WHO WISH GLAMOUR

Combination of challenging slopes and those for beginners is perfect for parents with children. In this place, there is a ski school and ski kindergarten for the youngest. While you do down on some of the nearby slopes, whose total length is 250km, you can pay and entrust your youngest with an experienced ski instructor. Ellmau is calmer place that the neighbouring ski resort Soll which is known among younger generation as a place for nights out.

If your problem is that you have come skiing with a person who doesn’t ski, Ischgl is a perfect place for you. A short tram ride separates you from one of the most beautiful and most prominent Austrian cityInnsbruck. With various places to be seen and for shopping- and without a sight of a ski slope! Even without skies, you can sit in a gondola which will take you to the restaurant Panorama on the top of Patscherkofel, the place where the Olympic games from 1964. and 1976.were organized.

Najveća karnevalska UNESCO-ov novi turistički povorka u istočnoj Nemačkoj centar u fabrici Fagus

U Donjoj Lužici, oko Kotbusa, i dalje je živa tradicija Lužičkosrpske pokladne noći – tzv. „Capust“.

Hiljade pripadnika nacionalne manjine Lužičkih Srba i danas njeguje ovaj historijski običaj ukorijenjen u seoskom načinu života. Osnovno obilježje ovog običaja je tzv. „Campern“ – tjeranje demona i drugih opasnih i zlih sila maskama, prerušavanjem, bukom, udarcima štapom i plesom.

Eastern Germany’s biggest carnival parade The traditional Lower Sorbian carnival, the Zapust, is also alive and well in the Lower Lusatian region that surrounds Cottbus.

Thousands of Sorbs, a Slavic minority, still practise this ageold custom that has its roots in village working life. Central to the tradition is the act of zampern, which sees villagers ward off demons and other dangers by putting on masks and costumes, making noise, brandishing canes and dancing.

Gradić Alfeld u blizini Hanovera, glavnog grada Donje Saksonije, bogatiji je od prije nekoliko mjeseci za jednu novu znamenitost: turistički centar UNESCO-a smješten u staroj pilani fabrike Fagus, koja je 2011. godine proglašena spomenikom svjetske kulturne baštine. Fabrika Fagus, koju je od 1911. gradio najčuveniji arhitekta bauhausa, Valter Gropius i njegov kolega Adolf Mejer, važi za prvi primjer građevine u stilu moderne.

New UNESCO visitor centre at the Fagus Factory A new attraction opened a few months ago in the town of Alfeld, near Lower Saxony’s regional capital of Hannover: the UNESCO visitor centre in the historical chipping house at the Fagus Factory, a World Heritage site since 2011.

Built from 1911 to designs by Adolf Meyer and Walter Gropius, who went on to become the star architect of the Bauhaus school, the Fagus Factory is widely regarded as the first truly modern structure.

Otkrijte prirodu – uz malu pomoć tehnologije Prirodnjački centar Rigen otvoren 2013. godine na najvećem njemačkom ostrvu, ima nešto novo u ponudi: aplikaciju za pametne telefone i tablete koja nudi uzbudljive audio-ture i informacije o biodiverzitetu, jedinstvenim staništima i historijskim podacima o regionu. Aplikacija vodi posjetioce po obilježenim rutama kroz odabrane oblasti prirodnjačkog parka i na označenim stanicama objašnjava npr. kako je nastala močvara, zašto slijepim miševima prija da borave u nekadašnjim bunkerima, kako je biljka mesožderka dobila ime i još mnogo toga.

Discover nature – with a little help from technology There’s something new on offer from the Rügen Natural Heritage Centre, which opened on Germany’s largest island in 2013: an app featuring fascinating audio guide tours and information about the biodiversity, unique habitats and history of the region. The app guides visitors on marked routes through select areas of natural heritage, and at checkpoints explains how a fen develops, why bats like living in old bunkers, how the carnivorous sundew plant got its name, and much more besides.

Lagana zimska rekreacija: Hodanje po snijegu na planini Harc Mnoga mjestašca na planini Harc, u pograničnom dijelu između Saksonije-Anhalta i Donje Saksonije, nude iznajmljivanje opreme za snijeg, snježne ture sa vodičem ili posjetioci mogu sami odabrati rutu kojem žele da se kreću – mnogi, na primjer, biraju Širke na brdu Broken, koje sa 1.141 metar visine predstavlja najviše uzvišenje ne samo ovog planinskog vijenca već i cijele sjeverne Njemačke. Gradovi Klaustal – Celerfeld i Hanenkle imaju također bogatu ponudu za ljubitelje hodanja po snijegu.

Winter sports at a gentle pace: snow-shoeing in the Harz mountains Many towns and villages in the Harz mountains, in the border region of Saxony-Anhalt and Lower Saxony, offer snow-shoe hire and guided snow-shoe trails or visitors can choose a route to follow themselves. For example, many explore Schierke am Brocken, home to Mount Brocken which, at 1.141 metres, is the tallest peak not only in the mountain range but in the whole of northern Germany. The towns of Clausthal-Zellerfeld and Hahnenklee also have a lot on offer for snow-shoe enthusiasts.

Nova izložba u „dragom gradu“ reformatora Jedna od najstarijih i najljepših tradicionalnih kuća Tiringije sa prepoznatljivim drvenim gredama nalazi se u Ajzenahu. Ona potiče još iz 14. stoljeća, a svoju slavu stekla je prvenstveno zbog toga što je u jednom periodu bila dom Martina Lutera: Prema predanju, Luter je u ovoj patricijskoj vili živio između 1498. i 1501. godine dok, je kao učenik Latinske škole živio kod svojih rođaka. Dvadeset godina kasnije, on je pod imenom „Junker Jorg“ 300 dana boravio u Vartburgu nad Ajzenahom – koji je od 1999. na UNESCO -ovoj listi svjetske kulturne baštine.

Zarland: „Outlet shopping“ i tradicija proizvodnje keramike Još jedna odlična adresa za kupoholičare ušuškana je u divlji, romantični, šumski predio jugozapadnog Falca, na granici Njemačke, Francuske i Luksemburga, u blizini tradicionalnih turističkih destinacija i popularnih atrakcija: „The Style Outlets“ u Cvajbrikenu tokom cijele godine nudi popuste na proizvode preko 130 brendova - od modnih dodataka, preko stvari za uređenje doma, do cipela i nakita.

New exhibition in Martin Luther’s ‘beloved town’ Eisenach boasts one of the oldest and most beautiful timber-framed houses in Thuringia.

It dates from the 14th century and is best known for being Martin Luther’s temporary home. The great church Reformer is believed to have lived in the then patrician town house with his relatives from 1498 to 1501 while he was studying Latin.

Twenty years later he returned to Eisenach and spent some 300 days disguised as ‘Squire George’ in Wartburg Castle, which stands sentinel over the town. It was here in the castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1999.

Saarland: outlet shopping and ceramics heritage Another hotspot for shopaholics is set amid the dramatic forested hills of the south-west Palatinate, where Germany borders France and Luxembourg, but still close to the main driving routes and popular attractions.

Kako odoljeti Njemačkoj?

Piramide i jaslice izrezbarene u drvetu, miris lutkica za mirisne stošce i primamljive arome kolačića i pečenih jabuka stvaraju sjetne trenutke

UMJETNOST I TRADICIONALNI OBRTI Tradicionalni obrti su u Njemačkoj vrlo cijenjeni. Brojni zanati prenose se iz generacije u generaciju unutar porodičnih preduzeća.

Drugi tradicionalni zanati su pak tipični za određenu regiju te se ondje s ljubavlju njeguju i čuvaju.

Dok putujete Njemačkom, na brojnim mjestima možete zaviriti u radionice obrtnika i vidjeti kako uz pažljiv i precizan rad, dugogodišnje iskustvo i individualno zalaganje nastaje umjetničko djelo. Upoznajte Njemačku!

SAT S KUKAVICOM Već u 17. stoljeću urari su koristili glasanje kukavice kako bi označili puni sat. Sredinom 19. stoljeća u regiji Schwarzwald izrađeni su prvi satovi s kukavicom –„Kuckucksuhren“ – s brojčanikom na pročelju željezničke čuvarske kućice i utezima u obliku češera. U Muzeju satova u mjestu Furtwangen možete vidjeti prototipove i rijetke primjerke te saznati na koji način nastaju ova ručno rađena umjetnička djela. Nek' se čuje kukavica!

Piramide i jaslice izrezbarene u drvetu, miris lutkica za mirisne stošce (Räuchermännchen) i primamljive arome kolačića i pečenih jabuka stvaraju sjetne trenutke. Ovdje možete saznati više o umjetnosti slavljenja Božića.

Dva najpoznatija njemačka lutkarska pozorišta nalaze se u Sachsen-Anhaltu: pogledajte u gradovima Halle ili Magdeburg bajke, adaptacije iz svjetske književnosti ili filmske teme. Ovdje lutke plešu samo za vas.

ADVENTSKI SAJMOVI - HAMBURG U Njemačkoj se održavaju brojni adventski sajmovi i niti jedan nije isti – neki su male sjetne manifestacije, drugi klasični božićni sajmovi s tipičnim ugođajem u povijesnom ugođaju, neki vesele narodne proslave s božićnom muzikom uz roštilj i punč, a neki pak mondeni stilski događaji. U Hamburgu možete odabrati bilo koji tip adventskog sajma: povijesni na Rathausmarktu, sjetni oko crkve Michel ili otkačeno-frivolni na Sankt Pauliu. Ovdje možete doživjeti pravi božićni ugođaj.

CUCKOO CLOCK Already in the 17th century, watchmakers had used cuckoos’ voice to mark a complete hour. In the middle of the 19th century, first cuckoo clocks “Kuckucksuhren” were made in a region Schwarzwald- with a clock face on the top of a railway, guard house and weights in the form of cones.

In the Museum of Clocks in a place called Furtwangen, you can see prototypes and rare samples as well as learn how these handmade artistic pieces were created. Let a cuckoo be heard!

INTERVJU / INTERVIEW

RIJEKE LJUDI I AUTOMOBILA Koliko ste zaista imali vremena za istraživanje Kine?

– Na poziv Instituta za istraživanje medija, Administracije za press, radio, film i televiziju NR Kine, boravili smo u Pekingu tri sedmice na seminaru za razvoj medija i nove ere HD digitalnog emitovanja za zemlje u razvoju. Sedam dana proveli smo u gradu Qingdao na obalama Žutog mora. Predavanja su trajala i do 17 sati, ali su nam nedjeljom bile organizovane posjete najpoznatijim lokacijama, a dio zemlje smo vidjeli u vlastitom angažmanu. Šta Vas je očaralo u Kini?

O

bilazak najmnogoljudnije zemlje na svijetu, naš je sugovornik počeo, kako drugačije, nego Kineskim zidom.

Mao Ce Tung jednom je rekao da onaj ko se nije popeo na Kineski zid nije pravi muškarac. I uspjeli smo. Popeli smo se strmim stepenicama natovareni kamerom, stativom, ruksakom s dodatnom opremom, iako nam je duša izlazila na nos. Zid, podignut kako bi se spriječio prodor stranaca, danas je najveća kineska turistička atrakcija. Osim Kineskog zida, posjetili smo i kompleks carskih palata i dvorana, poznat pod imenom Zabranjeni grad. Remek djelo kineske arhitekture, ovaj ogromni kompleks prostire se na površini od 72 hektara, gdje je car živio u nezamislivoj raskoši. Kao i kod turskih sultana, imao je harem sa stotinama konkubina. Odmah pored Zabranjenog grada nalazi se trg Tiananmen, najveći trg na svijetu, počeo je Nihad priču o svojoj kineskoj avanturi.

48

– Kina je zaista druga planeta, potpuno druga dimenzija. Sve je veće od svega na što smo navikli; broj ljudi i automobila na ulicama, veličina ulica, broj i veličina postojećih i gradova u izgradnji, grandioznost carskih kompleksa…

Kineska ekonomija je, prema relevantnim pokazateljimaa, druga na svijetu, a kao rezultat njenog ekonomskog razvoja, Peking prerasta u pravog ekonomskog diva. Glavni grad pomjerio je granice mogućeg. Elegantni neboderi, moderna zdanja od mermera, čelika i stakla preobražavaju Peking u svjetsku metropolu. Grad ne miruje, sve je toliko prostrano i toliko je puno ljudi da imate dojam da ste tek kap u moru, što je istovremeno i fascinantno i zastrašujuće. Zagađenost zraka je veliki problem, pa smo tokom tri sedmice samo tri dana

vidjeli plavo nebo. Još jedna stvar koja fascinira je kinesko jedinstvo i ponos, bez obzira kojoj religijskoj ili nacionalnoj skupini pripadaju i izražen patriotizam.

Do kojih ste još prirodnih i historijskih ljepota uspjeli doći?

Ljetna palata na sjeverozapadu Pekinga na jezeru Kunming. Njeno ime na kineskom znači vrt savršenog sklada i danas se smatra klasikom kineskog pejzažnog vrtnog oblikovanja. Ovdje su carevi provodili ljetni odmor. Pečat ovom mjestu dala je carica Cu Ši (Cixi), koja se uzdigla od konkubine do carice rodivši caru jedinog sina. Ona je krajem 19. vijeka, nakon careve smrti, preuzela carstvo i budući da je carević bio još dijete, vladala u njegovo ime. Izgradila je i pozorište u kojem su je zabavljali umjetnici i muzičari. Kada je carstvu zaprijetila opasnost od neprijatelja, izgradila je veliki mramorni brod na kojem je priređivala bankete i proslave. Carstvo je propalo, a kameni brod je ostao kao turistička atrakcija. Na svakoj palubi nalaze se ogledala koja reflektuju površinu jezera i stvaraju jedinstven ugođaj kao da sjedite na vodi.

KLJUČNA RIJEČ: HARMONIJA Je li bilo teško sporazumjeti se s tamošnjim stanovništvom?

– Sporazumijevanje na engleskom ide teško, iako mlade generacije Kineza sve više govore barem jedan svjetski jezik. Kada ste u taksiju, izuzetno je važno imati adresu na kineskom.

S kojim tradicionalnim običajima ste se najčešće susretali?

– Kako je harmonija ključna riječ kod Kineza, naći novi balans je imperativ današnje, moderne Kine. Brže se razvijaju nego što to svijet može pratiti, kako fizički, tako i mentalno. Balans se ogleda u principu ravnoteže jina i janga, konfučijevske filozofije, u što se savršeno uklapa slika penzionera koji vježbaju tai-či u parku i plešu valcer na otvorenom uz muziku sa zvučnika. Većina Kineza slijedi principe feng šuia prilikom građenja i uređenja domova. Jedinstveno isku-

PERSPEKTIVNA BUDUĆNOST Šta ilustruje najbolje atmosferu na kineskim ulicama?

– Ekonomski razvoj je novoj generaciji Kineza povećao samopouzdanje i životna očekivanja. Mladi Kinezi troše velike svote novca o kojima njihovi roditelji nisu mogli ni sanjati. Zapadnjački konzumerizam pokucao je i na kineska vrata. Novi naraštaji Kineza, koji će uskoro imati vodeću ulogu u društvu, prva su generacija koju su oblikovale ekonomske reforme. Iskusili su dostupnost sredstava za komunikaciju i informacionih tehnologija, uspješno se kreću kroz brojne društvene medije, mikro bloging platforme, internet sajtove… Za Kinu je od suštinske važnosti da razumije i shvati šta ove nove generacije mladih Kineza motiviše, kakva su im očekivanja u životu, šta ih razlikuje od njihovih roditelja i kako će oni uticati na razvoj ekonomije.

stvo su posjete hutonzima, starim dijelovima grada, gdje stanovnici žive tradicionalno, uprkos činjenici da žive u 21. vijeku, u gradu sa 20 miliona stanovnika. Ako želimo upoznati život starog Pekinga, onda su hutonzi pravo mjesto. Toplina i bliskost među ljudima koji tu žive je gotovo opipljiva, što je danas prava rijetkost.

LAKIRANA PATKA Koja nacionalna jela Kine ste probali i kako biste ih opisali?

– Svi smo čuli za pekinšku patku koja se priređuje na poseban način.

Napuni se juhom, svi otvori se začepe, a ona se peče izvana, kuha iznutra. Pred kraj procesa meso se premaže medom i tako dobije lakirana površina, pa je Francuzi zovu lakirana patka. Služi se uz mandarinske palačinke. Kinezi vole i kuhano tijesto na pari s različitim sadržajima u različitim oblicima.

Na kineskom to su đaoze, tijesto s govedinom i kikirikijem, gljivama, zeljem, ananasom, lotosom. Tu je i dumplings punjen morskim plodovima. Kineska kuhinja se razlikuju od

regije do regije. Stanovnici Pekinga ne vole previše ljute i preslatke okuse. U Šangaju vole slatko, a na sjeveroistoku zemlje ljuto i slatko.

Na kakvim ugostiteljskim mjestima ste se najviše voljeli zadržati?

– Kod uličnih prodavaca, šarenom lavirintu boja, mirisa i okusa, gdje možete probati lokalne delicije i specijalitete. Miris pržene ribe i žamor uličnih prodavača obuzimaju sva čula. Svaki zalogaj je potpuno različit od svega što ste ikada probali kod kuće. Ulična hrana je jeftina, a može se i cjenkati. Možete probati i različite vrste škorpija. Poslužuju se kao ražnjići, nabodeni na štapić, još uvijek žive, tako da znate da jedete svježe. Zatim, odaberete kojeg žohara ili pauka želite, onda ga takvog živog stave na roštilj.

Probali nismo, a nije ni neka navala kod degustiranja ovih životinjica. Tu i tamo se nađe neki hrabar turista.

Osim ovih proizvoda koji služe više da privuku turiste, najveći dio ulične ponude hrane je povrće. Crveno meso u Kini je skupo, pa najviše pripremaju povrće, piletinu i tofu.

Da li je Kina opravdala Vaša očekivanja?

– Nadmašila ih je. Sve predrasude koje sam možda ranije imao o Kinezima pokazale su se neutemeljenim. Ovo što se danas dešava s Kinom nije trenutni fenomen.

Značaj kineskog povratka predvidio je svojevremeno i Napoleon, rekavši: “Pustite zmaja da spava. Kada se probudi, uzdrmat će svijet.”

INTERVJU / INTERVIEW

H

is description of the trip to the most numerous country in the world, our interlocutor began, how else than with the Great Wall of China.

Mao Ce Tung said that the one who has never climbed the Chinese wall is not a genuine man. And we succeeded. We climbed over steep steps loaded with a camera, a stand, a bag with additional equipment even though we were gasping. The wall, erected to prevent a breakthrough of the invaders, is today the biggest, Chinese, tourist attraction. Besides the Chinese wall, we visited the complex of imperial palaces and chambers known as the Forbidden City. Masterpiece of Chinese architecture, this enormous complex covers an area of 72 hectares, where the Emperor had lived in unimaginable luxury. He had his own harem with thousands of concubines, same as the Turkish sultans had. Right next to the Forbidden City is Tiananmen Square, the biggest square in the world; Nihad began the story about his Chinese adventure.

50

THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE AND CARS How much time did you actually have to explore China?

- On a call from an Institute for media research, Administration for press, radio and television of PR of China, we stayed three weeks in Peking on a seminar for media development and new era of HD digital broadcasting for the developing countries. I spent 7 days in the city Qingdao, on the banks of the Yellow sea. The lectures lasted even 17 hours but on Sundays; sightseeing tours had been organized for us of the most popular locations but a part of the country we organised to see ourselves.

What fascinated you in China?

- Certainly, China is another planet, completely new dimension. Everything is much bigger from what we are accustomed to: number of people and cars in street, the size of streets, number and size of the existing and cities under construc-

tion, the grandeur of the imperial palaces. Chinese economy is, according to the relevant, economic indicators, second country in the World, and as a result of its economic progress, Peking turns into a real economic giant. The capital moved the boundaries of possible. Elegant sky-scrapers, modern building made of marble, steel and glass all transform Peking into World’s metropolitan city.

The city never sleeps, everything is so spacious and so crowded so you don’t have impression that you are only a drop in a sea what is, at the same time both fascinating and frightening. Air pollution is a major issue so in these three weeks, we saw the blue sky only for three days. Another thing that is interesting is Chinese sense of unity and pride, no matter which religious or national denomination a person belongs to and a sharp sense of patriotism.

What other natural and historical beauties you managed to see?

Summer Palace in northwest Peking on the Kunming Lake.

Its name in Chinese means “the garden of perfect harmony” and today, it is considered to be a standard example of Chinese, natural, scenery gardening. The Emperors spent their summer holidays here.

The trademark to this place had given Empress Cu Si (CiXi), who rose through the ranks from a concubine to an empress giving birth of a son to the Emperor. At the end of 19th century, after the Emperor’s death, she took over the Empire, since the prince was too young, she ruled instead of him.

She built a theatre where artisans and musicians entertained her.

When the Empire was threatened by invaders, she erected huge, marble boat where she organized

banquets and celebrations. The Empire collapsed and the stone boat was left as a tourist attraction. On each deck, there is a large mirror to reflect the waters of the lake and make an incredible impression as if you sit on the water.

KEY WORD: HARMONY Was it difficult to communicate with the people?

Communication in English is quite difficult but younger generations of Chinese speak at least one of world’ languages. When you drive by taxi, it is necessary to have an address in Chinese.

Which traditional custom you encountered most frequently?

Since harmony is a key word for Chinese people, finding a new harmony is an imperative of today’s modern China. They develop faster that the world is able to catch up it, both physically and mentally. Harmony is seen in the jing and jang principle, Confucius philosophy, where a picture of retired persons exercising tai-chi in a park or dancing waltz in an open space with the music from speakers, fits perfectly.

Most Chinese practice the principles of feng shui when they build or decorate their homes. A unique experience are visits to gutongs-old parts of a city, where people live traditionally, despite the fact that they live in the 21st century, in the city with population over 20 million.

If you want to get to know life of an old Peking, gutongs are perfect for that. Warmth and closeness among those people is almost touchable which is quite rare these days.

PEKING DUCK Which traditional, Chinese dish have you tasted?

We have all heard about Peking duck which is prepared in a special method. It is filled with soup, closed up so it roasts on the outside and boils inside. At the end of a process, meat is glazed with honey so you get lacquered surface which is the reason why French call it lacquered duck. It is served with mandarin pancakes. Chinese love steamed dough with different fillings in different shapes. In Chinese, it is called “baozi” (buns), pastry with beef and peanuts, mushrooms, spinach, pineapple, salmon. There are also dumplings filled with seafood.

There are regional differences in Chinese cuisine. People in Peking like neither too bitter nor too sweet.

People in Shangai like sweet and in the northeast bitter and sweet.

In what kind of catering facilities you liked spending time most?

At the Street vendors, in a colourful, labyrinth of colours, of fragrances and tastes, where you can taste local delicacies and specialties.

The smell of fried fish and street vendors’ murmur, catch all your senses. Every bite is completely different from everything you have

ever tasted before at home. Street food is cheap and you can also palter. You can try various kinds of scorpions. They are served as skewers, on sticks, still alive so to make you sure that you eat them fresh. Then, you choose an insect or spider that you want and they put them on grill. We haven’t tasted that and honestly, there was not such a crowd of people who rushed to taste it. Here and there turned up some courageous tourist. Besides these products whose purpose is to attract tourists, great part of street’ offer are vegetables. Red meat in China is expensive so they mainly cook vegetables, chicken and tofu.

PROSPEROUS FUTURE What illustrates best the atmosphere on Chinese streets?

Economic development increased self-confidence and life expectations to the new generation of Chinese people. Young Chinese spend large amounts of money which their parents could have just dreamed of. Western consumerisms knocked on Chinese door as well. New generations of Chinese, who will soon take a leading role in society, are the first generation shaped by economic reforms.

They experienced availability of communication and information technology, they successfully go through numerous social media, micro blogging platforms, internet sites...It is of crucial importance for china to understand and realize what motivates these generations of young Chinese, what are their expectations in life, what makes them different from their parents and how will they influence the economic development.

Has China come up to your expectations?

It surpassed them. All prejudice about Chinese people I used to have turned out to be groundless.

What is happening in China now, is not a current phenomenon. The importance of Chinese recovery, Napoleon predicted at his time saying: “Let the dragon sleep.

When it wakes up, it will shake the World.”

V

jerovatno su mladi Mocart, Betoven, a kasnije Frojd, Klimt i mnogi drugi, znali zbog čega su izabrali da žive baš u Beču. U odnosu na ostatak razvijene srednje Evrope, na Njemačku ili Češku na primjer, Beč je oduvijek važio za „južnjački grad“ i sinonim za ležernost, opuštenost i zabavu.

Gdje je zabava, tu su umjetnost i muzika, pozorište i opera, te je vremenom, pogotovo u periodu od XVIII do početka XX vijeka, Beč i u umjetničkom smislu uspio da se nametne kao jedna od najprestižnijih evropskih prijestolnica.

Glavni grad Austrije sa svojih oko 1,7 miliona stanovnika, karakterističan je po nekoliko stvari: velikom broju odličnih i edukativnih muzeja, raskošnim baroknim i 52

rokoko palatama, austrougarskim zdanjima u bijeloj ili bež boji (omiljenoj boji carice Marije Terezije), klasičnoj muzici u svakom smislu i neobično mnogo ljudi iz zemalja bivše Jugoslavije koji su ovde našli svoje parče sreće i koje ćete sretati na svakom koraku.

Grad je karakterističan i po interesantnim i brojnim tablama sa raznim obavještenjima, koje ne služe samo lakšem snalaženju, već i kao svojevrstan vid obavještenja i upozorenja o tome šta se u Beču smije, a šta ne. S obzirom da se velika većina Bečlija (ali i onih koji to nisu) pridržava onog što na tablama piše, sam grad funkcionira savršeno. Inače, Beč kao grad veoma je lak za snalaženje. Šetajući Bečom, primjetit ćete otmjenost i uređenost bečkih zda-

nja, ljepotu mnogobrojnih pasaža između uličica u strogom centru, čistoću ulica i mnogobrojne turiste u vožnji starim taksi-vozilima – uglancanim, crnim fijakerima.

Neki od simbola ovog grada su i fantastično uređene poslastičarnice (neke od najpoznatijih su: Demel Konditorei ili Konditorei & Restaurant Oberlaa), u kojima možete probati čuvene bečke torte.

U neke od klasika spada i čuvena zaherica.

Dok sjedite u nekoj od bečih kafeterija (Café Hawelka ili Café Central) i ispijate neku od bečkih kafa, možda uz zvuke bečkog valcera negdje u pozadini, svuda oko vas biće primjetni detalji nekadašnjeg sjaja i moći, koje je za sobom ostavila velika i moćna imperija Austro-Ugarska.

Priča o zaherici (Sacher torti) Kao i sve čuvene i „velike“ stvari, zaher torta je izmišljena slučajno.

Godine 1832., moćni princ Meternik (Metternich), kazao je svojim kuharima – poslastičarima, da imaju samo nekoliko sati da do večernjih časova (kada je odlučio prirediti zabavu), osmisle novi dezert. Sudbina je htjela da glavni kuhar bude bolestan te je ova dužnost dopala 16-godišnjeg kalfu i pomoćnika Franca Zahera (Franz Sacher) – morao je osmisliti nešto što nikako neće razočarati princa i njegove uvažene goste. Dao je sve od sebe i uveče pobrao sve pohvale. Čokoladna torta sa mekim patišpanom, uz dodatak džema od kajsije postigla

Šta ne smijete propustiti

je neslućen uspjeh, te je mladi učenik uskoro postao glavni kuhar i čuvenog grofa Esterhazija. Kada je stekao dovoljno iskustva, odlučio je da započne samostalan posao.

Godine 1876., sin Franca Zahera, Edvard, osnovao je Hotel Zaher. Godine 1998., u njemu je napravljena najveća originalna zaher torta na svijetu, prečnika 2,5 metra, koja je ušla u Ginisovu knjigu rekorda.

Provozati se unutar drvenih kabina najstarijeg "točka" bečkom panoramom Raisenrad, u Prateru - jednom od najstarijih zabavnih parkova Evrope; Prater je poznato bečko rekreacijsko područje.

Obići relativno nov i potpuno interaktivan Muzej zvuka - Haus der Musik u kome, na primjer možete da „dirigujete“ Bečkom filharmonijom; Provozati se fijakerom ulicama starog Beča; U periodu između 1860. i 1908. u Beču je bilo preko hiljadu fijakera. Kočijaši su često pravi Bečani, a nerijetko ćete vidjeti i kočijašice.

Obići Prirodnjački muzej koji čuva kolekciju fosila, insekata, skeleta životinja iz prahistorije.

San svakog profesora prirodnih nauka, ali i roditelja da pokaže svojoj djeci; Popiti bečku kafu u jednoj od poznatih, starih kafeterija, na primjer u kafeu Hawelka, u kojem je i vlasnik starina za sebe; Posjetiti jedan od dva najbolja umjetnička muzeja: Muzej istorije umetnosti ili Albertinu; Subotom ujutro promuvati se po buvljoj pijaci Naschmarkt, kupiti ponešto za uspomenu, proći zelenom pijacom i zaustaviti se u nekom od kafea na jutarnjoj kafi;

Vienna Card Sa „Bečkom kartom“ može se ostvariti 210 popusta (u muzejima, prilikom posjete znamenitostima, pozorištu, koncertima, pri kupovini, u kafeima, restoranima). Pomenuta karta važi i kao vozna karta za metro, autobus i tramvaj u periodu od 72 sata od momenta kada se otkuca. Roditelji koji posjeduju „Bečku kartu“ imaju besplatan prijevoz za dijete do 15 godine. „Vienna Card“ košta 19,50 eura, a može se kupiti u svim hotelima, turističkim biroima kao i kioscima gde se prodaju vozne karte.

Vienna m u e s u M y t i C the THE MOST COURTEOUS EUROPEAN METROPOLITAN

The city is distinctive for interesting and numerous traffic signs with various notices which serve not only for better orientation but as a unique way of notice and warning of the things which are and are not allowed to do in Vienna

Y

oung Mozart, Beethoven and later Freud and many others, probably knew the reason why they had chosen to live in Vienna. Compared to the rest of the developed Central Europe, Germany or the Czech Republic for instance, Vienna had always been known as the “Southern city” or a synonym for comfort, relaxing and fun. Where is a social gathering, there are art and music, theatre and opera, so over a certain period, especially from XVIII until the beginning of XX century, Vienna managed to become one of the most prestigious European capitals, in the artistic aspect.

The capital city of Austria, with its 1, 7 million population, is distinctive for several things: numerous excellent and educational museums, splendid baroque and rococo palaces, Austro-Hungarian edifice in white or beige (favourite colour of Queen Maria Theresa), classical music in every possible sense and unusually large number of people from the former Republic of Yugoslavia who settled there and whom you will see on every corner.

The city is distinctive for interesting and numerous traffic signs 54

with various notices which serve not only for better orientation but as a unique way of notice and warning of the things which are and are not allowed to do in Vienna.

Considering the fact that most of Vienna people (but also those who are not) abide by the notices written on traffic signs, the city itself functions perfectly. Besides, Vienna itself is easy for orientation.

Walking through Vienna, you will notice splendour and regularity of the Vienna buildings, beauty of numerous passages between streets in the city centre, clean streets and a large number of tou-

rists driving in old taxi vehiclespolished, black fiacre.

Some symbols of the city are fantastically decorated pastry shops (some of the most popular are: Demel Conditorei or Conditorei & Restaurant Oberlaa) where you can try famous cakes. One of these classics is well-known Sacher cake. While you sit in one of these Vienna coffee shops ( Café Hawelka or Cafe Central) and drink some of Vienna coffees, perhaps you will hear the sound of Vienna waltz somewhere in the background. Everywhere you look around, you will see details of the former splendour and power, which the huge and powerful Austro-Hungarian Empire had left.

Vienna Card You can get 210 discounts with Vienna Card (in museums, sightseeing monuments, in theatres, concerts, while shopping, in cafés and restaurants) The ticket is valid same as an underground, bus or tram ticket- 72 hours from the moment it was annulled. Parents who have “Vienna Card” have free transport for children under 15.

It costs 19,50euros and it can be bought in any hotel, tourist agency or on news stalls where transport tickets are sold.

DON’T MISS Drive inside wooden cabins of the oldest “wheels”, in Wiener Riesenrad or Riesenrad in Prater- one of the oldest amusement parks in Europe; Prater is famous Vienna recreation centre;

THE STORY ABOUT THE SACHER CAKE Like all “famous” and “big” things, the Sacher cake was cooked up accidentally. In 1832. powerful Prince Metternich told his cooks-pastry cooks, that they had only few hours until the evening (when he decided to organize a party) to prepare a new dessert. Destiny wanted the main cook to be sick, so 16-old apprentice and assistant of Franz Sacher had to think of something that would not disappoint the Prince and his respected guests. He gave his best and got praises in the evening.

Chocolate cake with soft biscuit and apricot jam was unimagined success so that the young apprentice soon became the main cook and the cook of famous Count Esterhazy. When he gained enough experience, he decided to start his own business.

Visit rather new and entirely interactive museum of sound-Haus der music where, for instance, you can “conduct” the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra; Drive in fiacre along the streets of an old Vienna; during the period from 1860-1908, there were over thousand of fiacre in Vienna. Fiacre-drivers are very often born in Vienna and quite often you will see women fiacre-drivers; Visit Natural History Museum which is home to collections of fossils, insects, animal skeletons from the prehistoric period. This is a dream of every natural science teacher but of parents as well to show it to their children; Drink Vienna coffee in one of famous old coffee shops, for instance cafe Hawelka, where the owner himself is a kind of an antiquity; Visit one of the best two art museums in Vienna: Art History Museum or The Albertina;

ZAVRTI GLOBUS / SPIN THE GLOBE

MUZEJ OBUĆE BATA

ZGRADA KAO KUTIJA CIPELA Najposjećeniji dio muzeja je svakako onaj u kome je izložena zbirka cipela poznatih: srebrene cipele Eltona Džona, balske cipele britanske kraljice Viktorije, plave cipele Elvisa Prislija, „The Beatles” čizme Džona Lenona, čizme sa šarom zebre slikara Pabla Pikasa...

Ivana Dukčević, Furaj.ba Većina muzeja odavno nisu ono što su nekada bili – puke galerije slika i skulptura. Jedan od najzanimljivijih modernih muzeja (po nekim kriterijima i jedan od Top 10) u svijetu, jeste Muzej obuće čuvene modne kuće Bata u Torontu.

U ovom interesantnom muzeju možete vidjeti izložbu obuće iz svih krajeva svijeta i gotovo svih epoha, koju je za muzejsku postavku godinama sakupljala Sonja Bata, supruga Tomasa Bate, nasljednika osnivača čuvene imperije cipela – Tomaša Bate. Poslije Drugog svjetskog rata, iselivši se za Kanadu i prateći supruga na brojnim putovanjima širom svijeta, Sonja Bata je uspjela skupiti veliku kolekciju obuće. Kada je njen suprug u septembru 2008. godine umro, mediji su se ponovo sjetili priče o njegovom ocu, Čehu iz mjesta Zlin, koji je 1894., u dvije prostorije u svom rodnom mjestu pokrenuo prvu proizvodnju obuće.

Godine 1979., porodica Bata u Torontu je osnovala Fondaciju Muzeja Bata cipela – kao internacionalni, istraživački centar i mjesto gdje je 56

obuća sakupljana godinama, našla svoje mjesto.

Petnaestak godina kasnije, posjetivši Sonju Batu, očaran i inspirisan njenom kolekcijom cipela od kojih je svaka bila čuvana u svojoj kutiji, arhitekta Rejmond Morijana (Raymond Moriyana) osmislio je zgradu od metala i stakla na četiri sprata, u obliku kontejnera, koja asocira na kutiju za cipele. Zdanje koje se danas nalazi u „muzejskom kvartu” Toronta, na broju 237 u ulici Bloor, otvoreno je 1995. godine. U zgradu je ubrzo smještena čitava kolekcija cipela Sonje Bate i proglašena stalnom postavkom muzeja, koja broji preko deset hiljada pojedinačnih komada obuće, ali i onih u paru.

Danas je Muzej obuće Bata mjesto najveće i najkompleksnije postavke kolekcije obuće i opreme za obuću, na svijetu. U okviru muzeja postoji nekoliko izložbi, od koji je jedna stalna, dok se preostale tri povremeno mijenjaju, na primjer: „”Obuća kroz vijekove”, „Dizajneri obuće XX vijeka”, ili „Od renesanse do baroknih štikli”. Stalna postavka muzeja podijeljena je na četiri oblasti: „Sve o cipelama”, „Inuitske čizme – umjetnost žena”, „Nježni koraci – Ženska obuća XIX vijeka” i „Ilustracije cipela iz dječijih knjiga”.

Najveća zbirka obuće u muzeju obuhvata onu američkog domorodačkog stanovništava –

Indijanaca i Inuita (Eskima), dok je najposjećeniji dio muzeja svakako onaj u kome je izložena zbirka cipela poznatih: srebrene cipele Eltona Džona (sa platformom i monogramom), balske cipele britanske kraljice Viktorije, plave cipele Elvisa Prislija, „The Beatles” čizme Džona Lenona, čizme sa šarom zebre slikara Pabla Pikasa...

Budete li imali priku da prošetate ovim interesantnim muzejem, moći ćete se upoznati sa različitim cipelama i njihovim pričama, od načina na koji su pravljene, materijala koji su korišteni, preko toga kakvu je šiljastu obuću nosio evropski srednjovjekovni vitez, a kakve mokasine američki Indijanci.

U muzeju možete saznati i kako su cipele određivale status u različitim kulturama, u kojoj mjeri je njihov dizajn bio odraz političkih ili soci-

jalnih prilika, te kako je osmišljena praktična obuća za razna zanimanja. Na kraju, vidjećete kako je izgled čarapa kroz vijekove utjecao na izgled obuće na primjer kralja Čarlsa I ili Napoleona Bonaparte, te kako su izgledale neke od najuvrnutijih ciplela na svijetu – francuske cokule za razbijanje oraha ili obuća japanskih sumo hrvača!

BATA SHOE MUSEUM

BUILDING LIKE A SHOEBOX Most visited part of the Museum is surely the one where is exhibited the collection of celebrity footwear: silver shoes of Elton John, ball room slippers of the British Queen Victoria, blue shoes of Elvis Presley, “The Beatles” boot of John Lennon, boots with a zebra print of the painter Pablo Picasso For a certain period of time, many museums are not what they used to be: mere galleries of pictures and sculptures. One of the interesting contemporary museum (according to some criteria one of the Top 10) in the World is the Shoe Museum of the fashion house Bata in Toronto.

In this interesting museum, you can see footwear exhibition from every part of the World and from almost every historical period, which had been collecting for years for the Museum Sonja Bata, wife of Tomas Bata, heir of the founder of the prominent shoe empire-Tomas Bata. After the Second World War,

moving to Canada and accompanying her husband on his frequent business trips, Sonja Bata managed to build up a huge collection of footwear. When her husband died in November in 2008, media again remembered the story of his father, a Czech from a place Zlin, who started his first production of footwear in 1894. inside two rooms in his place of birth. In 1979. Bata family in Toronto established The Bata Shoe Museum Foundation as an international, research centre and a place where footwear collected for years found its place.

Fifteen years later, after having visited Sonja Bata, impressed and inspired with her shoe collection where each pair had been kept in its shoebox, architect Raymond Moriyana designed a building from metal and glass on four floors, in a shape of a container which looks like a shape of a shoebox. The building, located in the “museum area” in Toronto, at number 237 of the Bloor Street, was opened in 1995. The entire shoe collection was soon placed in the building and it became the permanent collection, which numbers over ten thousand individual pieces of shoes, but also paired ones.

Today, Bata Shoe Museum is a place of the largest and most compound shoe collection and shoe equipment in the World. There are several exhibitions at the Museum; one is permanent and the other three feature changing exhibitions, for instance: “Footwear through

the Ages”, “Shoe Designers of the 20th century”, “From Renaissance to Baroque heels”. The permanent collection is divided into four sections: “All about Shoes”, “Inuit Boots-A Women’s art”, “The Gentle Step- The Ladies Realm of Fashion of the 19th century“, and „Illustrations from Contemporary Children’s Books about Shoes. “ The most extensive collection at the Museum is the one about Native American people- Indians and Intuits (Eskimos) whereas the most visited part of the Museum is surely the one where is exhibited the collection of celebrity footwear: the silver shoes of Elton John, the ball room slippers of the British Queen Victoria, the blue shoes of Elvis Presley, “The Beatles” boot of John Lennon, the boots with a zebra print of the painter Pablo Picasso.

If you have a chance to walk through this amazing Museum, you will learn about different shoes and their stories, how they were made, materials that were used, what pointy shoes wore European, medieval Knight and what type of moccasins American Indian. At the Museum, you can learn how shoes determined the social class in different cultures, to what extent their design had been the reflection of political and social circumstances and how practical shoes for various works had been designed. In the end, you will see how the pattern of socks throughout centuries influenced the shoe shape, for instance King Charles I or Napoleon Bonaparte; you will see shape of the craziest footwear in the World- French boots for crashing walnuts or footwear of Japanese sumo wrestlers!

PRIČA O VIJEĆNICI

Žuta kuća

na početku grada Ona možda ne pripada tu. Nije dijelom Čaršije, prevelika je. Nije dijelom šume, prenježna je. Nije dijelom ničeg, ali izgleda da joj je ipak mjesto tu, ne može se ni zamislit ništa manje visoko, ni manje žuto od nje Piše: Vedran Jakupović, Fotografija: Samir Zahirović Potraje spuštanje kanjonom Miljacke. Čini se da šuma nema kraja, a i čovjek izgubi osjećaj na kojoj je visini bio. Stekne taj osjećaj kad ponovo siđe, ako mu Bog dadne da siđe.

Na izlasku iz šume u Vrhbosansko polje stoji ona. Žuta, s nijansama narandžastog. Nakinđurena, čipkom obrubljena, a na glavi kruna od ljiljana. Nije njena boja limun žuta, nije ni oker, ova žuta nosi u sebi i boju pustinjskog pijeska i čaršijskog zlata. I skromnost i raskoš. I bliskost i nadmenost. Stoji kao dobrodošlica.

Nekad je ta dobrodošlica bila mevlevijska tekija na Bentbaši, koju jedni uništiše, a drugi obnoviše podigavši je na stijeni iznad starog mjesta, pa sad samo može gleda, više ne dočekuje. Žuta kuća možda ne pripada tu. Nije dijelom Čaršije, prevelika je. Nije dijelom šume, prenježna je. Nije dijelom ničeg, ali izgleda da joj je ipak mjesto tu, ne može se ni zamislit ništa manje visoko, ni manje žuto od nje. Možda da pokaže da se može desiti da i Švabo nešto ne zna. Da ne zna da ovi muslimani u Bosni nisu kao oni iz Španije, oni koji vole nakinđurit i čipkom obrubit zgradu. Ovi u Bosni tek znaju zavoljet takvu zgradu.

I prihvatit je kao svoju.

Dim iz ćevabdžijske ulice zaklanja joj pogled na najljepšu sarajevsku avliju, džamijski harem. Miris pečenog mesa, ne da mirisu haremske ruže da dodje do obruba od bijele čipke.

I kao da taj dim kaže - kad ti ne daš Nadmlinima da gledaju, ne dam ni ja tebi. I kao da pomisli - da mogu, otjerao bih te, kao što si i ti otjerala Inat kuću na drugu stranu. Ali da je na drugoj strani ne bi se mogla otvoriti suncu. Zna i on to. Ali dimi.

Ne prestaje.

Imao sam, za studentskih dana, običaj hodat' Starim Gradom. Što bi stariji rekli da mozak "provjetri" nakon cjelodnevnog učenja. Pravio sam ture znanim i neznanim mahalama, ulicama, koje su popodne, puste krile svaka svoju tajnu. Odakle god bih „bacio“ pogled na Sarajevo, nazirala se Vijećnica. Ova Vijećnica mog vremena, zapaljena, uništena, tužna, krila je i sama svoju tajnu. Mahalske tajne uspio sam otkriti, ali tajnu koju

Godine. Prvobitno je bila zgrada tadašnje gradske uprave i gradske administracije Sarajeva.

Nakon 2. svjetskog rata, sve do 1949. Godine, Vijećnica je služila gradskoj upravi kao zgrada Okružnog suda Sarajeva i sjedište Bosanskohercegovačkog sabora.

Nakon toga postaje Gradska biblioteka, odnosno Nacionalna i univerzitetska biblioteka BiH. Tokom opsade Sarajeva, u noći između 25. i 26. augusta 1992. godine, Vijećnica je granatirana i zapaljena. U vatrenoj stihiji je, osim na hiljade knjiga i vrijednih dokumenata, izgorio i veliki dio Vijećnice, njena jedinstvena aula, sva stolarija, zidovi, krovna konstrukcija te veliki dio fasade.

Obnova Vijećnice je počela 1996. godine, na stotu godišnjicu od završetka njene izgradnje. Potpuno obnovljena, svečano je otvorena 9. maja 2014., na Dan Evrope i Dan pobjede nad fašizmom nosi Vijećnica nisam. Možda nekad i uspijem. Ako udjem u nju, prodjem hodnicima, stepenicima, pogledam i iz nje, a ne samo na nju. Mozda taji istinu, šta će ona tu, ili koliko je slova sačuvala, iščitala. Koliko je diploma istrpila? O kakvim se mudrim i manje mudrim stvarima vijećalo u njenim sobama. Možda otkrije i tajnu sudbina i jauka iz susjedne Beledije koje je slušala godinama. Ili tajnu velikih ljubavi koje su se rodile u njenim odajama.

A vjerujem i da zna zašto je smetala onima koji su je zapalili tog ljeta. Zna, ali neće reći. Dama.

Kao i u svemu sarajevskom i Vijećnica izgleda drugačije s Bistričke i s one druge strane. S memli strane je i sunce gleda i obasjava. Otvorena je, raskošna, široka, zove, mami. Kad je gledaš sa Vratnika, gledaš je s boka, stidljiva je povučena. Kao da žali što je Nadmlinima zaklonila pogled na Čaršiju. Ne smije im ni u oči pogle69

THE STORY ABOUT THE CITY HALL VIJECNICA

Yellow house at the city entrance

Column by Vedran Jakupović, Photo: Samir Zahirović

Perhaps, it doesn’t belong there. It is not part of Carsija, it is too big.

It is not part of a forest, it is too snowy. It is not part of anything but nonetheless, its place is just there, you cannot imagine anything taller nor shorter, nor less yellow than it.

It takes time to come down the Miljacka canyon. It seems as if the forest is endless and one loses his sense at what height he has been. You get the feeling back once you go down again, if God lets you. At the end of the forest, on the Top Bosnian field stretches it.

Yellow, with orange shades. Tawdry, trimmed with lace and a lily crown at the top. Its colour is neither lemon, yellow nor ochre; this colour keeps in itself the colour of a desert sand and bazaar gold. Both modesty and luxury.

It stands as a welcome. Mevlevi Tekke used to be the welcome, which was devastated by the ones, and the others restored it on a rock above the old site, so now, it can only watch but it cannot welcome.

The yellow house perhaps does not belong there, it is too big. It is not part of a forest, it is too snowy. It is not part of anything but nonetheless, its place is simply there, you cannot imagine anything taller nor shorter, nor less yellow than it. Perhaps, to show that even a German warrior doesn’t know everything. That he doesn’t know that these Muslims in Bosnia are not similar to those in Spain, those who like to dude and trim 70

buildings with lace. These in Bosnia surely know to love such a building.

And accept it as if it were theirs.

As for everything else in Sarajevo, Vijecnica also looks differently from Bistik side and from the other. On the cold side, the Sun watches and illuminates it. It is open, splendid, wide, it calls, appeals. When you watch from Vratnik, you watch from the side and see it shy and coy. As if it feels sorry for obstructing the view of Carsija to Nadmlins. She won’t even look them in eyes. The other side looks at Bravadziluk all the way to the Bey’s Mosque. Smoke from the street with grills, obstructs its view on the most beautiful Sarajevo yardharem of the Mosque. The smell of roasted meat instead of fragrant harem’ roses come to the trimmed white lace. And as if the smoke says- since you won’t let Nadmlins to watch, I won’t let you either. And as if it thought –if only I could, I would drive you away same as you drove away the Inat house on the other side. But, if it were on the other side, it couldn’t have opened to the sun. He knows that too. But it still smokes. It doesn’t stop.

I used to walk, when I was a student, in the Old Town. The adults would say ‘to take a breath’ after all day studying. I made tours along both known and unknown neighbourhoods and streets whereas each of them in the afternoon hid its own secret. From wherever I took a look on Sarajevo, Vijecnica loomed. This Vijecnica of my time, burnt, devastated, sad, hid in itself a secret. I managed to find out secrets from neighbourhoods myself but the secret of Vijecnica, I simply couldn’t have. Perhaps, I will succeed one day. If I go in it, along the hallway, steps, look out from it and not only at it. Perhaps, it hides a secret why it stands there or how many letters it saved, read. How many diploma papers it endured?

How many wise and unwise decisions were talked about there? Perhaps, it will reveal the secret and the secret of destinies and mourns from the neighbouring Beledija that she had listened to for years. Or the secret of big loves that arose in its premises.

And I am sure she knows the reason why it bothered those who had burn it that summer. It knows, but it won’t tell. A lady.

Vijecnica was built in 1896. At first, it had been the seat of the Local government and Local administration of Sarajevo. In the period after The Second World War, until 1949.

Vijecnica served for the City Council as the seat of District Court Of Sarajevo and the seat of Bosnian and Herzegovinian Parliament. Later, it became the City library which was the National and University library of Bosnia and Herzegovina.

During the Sarajevo siege, in the night between 25th and 26th August 1992, Vijecnica had been shelled and burnt. Besides thousands of books and important documents, which were burnt in the flames, a huge part of Vijecnica was burnt as well- its auditorium, joinery, walls, roof structure and a large part of a façade.

Restoration of Vijecnica began in 1996, on the centenary of its construction. Completely reconstructed, it was ceremoniously reopened on the 9th May 2014, on Europe Day and Day of Victory over Fascism.

VODENI SPOMENICI

Stare sarajevske česme Ko se jednom napije vode sa Baščaršije, nikad više iz Saraj’va taj otići neće

Program obnove starih sarajevskih česmi obuhvatio je 41 česmu, sve koje se mogu rekonstruisati i restaurisati.

Na osnovu ovog programa obnovljene su u Sarajevu mnogobrojne česme, koje svjedoče o našoj tradiciji i predstavljaju značajnu vrstu spomenika u našoj kulturnoj baštini.

WATER MONUMENTS

Old water

pipes in Sarajevo

Many water pipes are mentioned in travelogues and they can be seen as a motif on numerous paintings.

According to the historical record from 1888, there were 152 public water pipes in Sarajevo but until 1992. merely thirty of them remained.

Project on reconstruction of old water pipes included 41 water pipe that could have been reconstructed and restored. Under this project, numerous water pipes were restored which give evidence of our tradition and they symbolize important type of a monument in our cultural heritage.

BOSNA I HERCEGOVINA / BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA

ČESMA KOD GAZI HUSREV-BEGOVE DŽAMIJE Najpoznatija sarajevska česma nalazi se u srcu Baščaršije, u kamenom zidu harema Gazi Husrev-begove džamije.

Ima dvije lule iz kojih neprekidno teče voda. Hladna i pitka, voda s ove česme opjevana je i u sevdalinkama, a običava se i kazati: “Ko se jednom napije vode sa Baščaršije, nikad više iz Saraj’va taj otići neće.”

WATER PIPE NEXT TO THE GAZI HUSREV-BEY MOSQUE

BISTRIČKA ČESMA

ČESMA POD ALIFAKOVCEM Jedna od najstarijih sačuvanih sarajevskih česmi je česma pod Alifakovcem. Ugrađena je u zid harema Vekilharčove džamije, u narodu poznate kao Hadžijska džamija. Nastala je vjerovatno kada i sama džamija, između 1541. i 1561. godine. Kao poklon grada Sarajeva gradu Rimu, izvedena je njena replika na trgu Piazza S. Giorgio al Velabro 1999. godine.

WATER PIPE BELOW ALIFAKOVAC One of the oldest and best preserved water pipes in Sarajevo is the water pipe under Alifakovac. It is built in the wall of the harem of the Vekilharac’s mosque, known among people as the Hadzi’ mosque. It was probably build the same year as the mosque, between 1541. and 1561. As a gift of the city of Sarajevo to Rome, copy of this water pipe was built on the Piazza S. Giorgio al Velabro’ square in 1999.

Smještena je uz ogradu džamije Mehmed-bega Ishakovića na uglu ulice Bistrik medresa i Muhameda Envera Kadića. Pretpostavlja se da je sagrađena 1520. godine, kad i obližnja džamija. Sagradio ju je Mehmed-beg, sin Isa-begov, koristeći se očevim vodovodom. Bistrička česma bijaše najveća česma u Sarajevu, poslije one u Malom parku kod Željezničke direkcije i stajala je skoro posred ulice pri ulazu u današnji Mali sokak. Rekonstruisana je 2006. godine po novom projektu i nalazi se u neposrednoj blizini nekadašnje česme.

BISTIK WATER PIPE It was built next to the fence of the Mahmut-bey’s mosque, an the corner of the Street Bistik medresa and Muhamed Enver Kadic Street. It is assumed that it was built at the same year as the nearby mosque in 1520.

It was built by Mahmut bey, Isa bey’s son, using his father’s water system.

Bistik water pipe was the largest, after the one in the Small Park close to the Railway station and it stood almost in the middle of the street on the entrance into today’s Small Street. It was reconstructed in 2006. according to the new project and it set close to the place of the old water pipe.

The most famous water pipe in Sarajevo is the one built in the heart of Bascarsija, in the stone walls of the Gazi Husrev-bey mosque. It has two pipes with the incessantly running water. Cold and clean, the water from this pipe was sang about in Sevdah music and there is a saying according to which, “Whoever drinks water from Bascarsija once, he/she will never leave Sarajevo.”

SUMBUL ČESMA Ova česma prvobitno bijaše smještena na uglu ulica Avde Sumbula i Hadžijamakovića. Ime je dobila po porodici Sumbul i prvi zapisi o njoj datiraju iz XVIII vijeka, iako se pretpostavlja da je sagrađena ranije.

Prenesena je i postavljena 1891. godine uz zid harema džamije Hadži Bali-oglu Mehmed-bega.

SUMBUL WATER PIPE At first, this water pipe was set at the corner of the Streets Avde Sumbul and Hadzijamakovic. It was named after the family Sumbul and first records about it date back from the XVIII century although it is assumed it was built much earlier. The water pipe was transferred and set next to the wall of the harem of the Hadzi Balioglu Mehmed-bey’s mosque.

Smještena je na lijevom uglu ulice Jekovac. Sagrađena je u XVI vijeku, u zidu starog muslimanskog groblja.

Najljepša je stara javna česma Sarajeva sačuvana u izvornom izgledu.

Na desnoj strani kaldrmisane staze, uz kamenu ogradu starog muslimanskog groblja na Alifakovcu, smještena je stara česma nazvana po istoimenoj sarajevskoj mahali.

Obnovljena je 1997. godine.

WATER PIPE ON NATKOVACI It is set in the left corner of the Street Jekovac. It was built in the XVI century, inside the walls of an old Muslim cemetery. It is the most stunning old public water pipe preserved in its original form.

WATER PIPE ON ALIFAKOVAC On the right side of the cobble path, next to the stone fence of an old Muslim cemetery on AlfIakovac, the oldest water pipe, named after the part of Sarajevo that has the same name, was built. It was reconstructed in 1997.

ČESMA JEDILERI

DŽAMIJICA Česma Džamijica nalazi se u Požegijinoj ulici. Posebnom je čini niša (slijepi mihrab), na prednjoj strani česme.

Na krovu ima alem poput kakve džamije, pa je po tome i dobila ime.

Sagrađena je u drugoj polovini XVI vijeka. Na gradski vodovod priključena je 1891. godine, a obnovljena 1999.

WATER PIPE DZAMIJICA Water pipe Dzamijica is located in the Pozega Street. What makes it special is its niche (blind mihrab), in the front part of the water pipe. There is alem on its roof, as if it were a mosque so that’s how it got its name. It was built in the second part of the XVI century.

It was connected to the civic water system in 1891 and it was reconstructed in 1997.

Česma Jedileri sastavni je dio istoimene tekije koju je 1879. godine osnovao Sejfulah Iblizijev. Nalazi se na Bistriku. Poznata je po tome što je u njenom haremu smješteno turbe sedam braće. Česma obuhvata cijeli jedan zid tekijskog harema s vanjske strane, iznad koje je drvena nadstrešnica obložena crijepom, čija je funkcija da štiti putnika namjernika od kiše i snijega. Česma je obnovljena 1997. godine.

JEDILERI WATER PIPE Water pipe Jedileri is the constituent part of the same named tekke that was founded in 1879. by Sejfulah Iblizijev. It is located on Bistrik, in the Jedileri Street. It is famous for the turbeh of the seven brothers which is placed in the harem. The water pipe covers one whole wall of the tekke’s harem from the outer side, above it is placed wooden eaves covered with tiles whose function is to protect a visitor from rain or snow. The water pipe was reconstructed in 1997.

ČESMA NA BUDAKOVIĆIMA Ne zna se kada je tačno sagrađena ova česma, ali svakako jeste prije 1735. godine. Bila je od velikog značaja za ovu mahalu, jer su se na njenoj terasi, pod lipom i tri jasike, u hladu pred akšam i poslije akšama, okupljali ugledniji mahalani na razgovor, kada se odlučivalo o “stvarima” mahale. Česma je obnovljena 1999. godine.

WATER PIPE ON BUDAKOVICI The exact date of its construction is unknown but surely it was before 1735. It was of great importance for this part of the city because on its terrace, under a lime and three aspens, in the shade before and after the sunset, gathered prominent people to talk, and when they discussed “the matters” of the locality. It was reconstructed in 1999.

PARIŠKA PEKARA U SARAJEVU

MRVICA PO MRVICA

Macaroni, čuveni francuski kolač zaštitni je znak Mrvice, ali je tek jedan u nizu kojem zasigurno nećete odoljeti Pariz je grad kojem poseban, vanvremenski šarm daju male kafeterije, pekare i zalogajnice smještene u uskim uličicama kojima se širi miris kroasana i aromatiziranih začina, od cimeta, preko bosiljka, sve do vanilije.

Jedna takva, potpuno preslikana pariška priča, odnedavno se nalazi u Sarajevu.Caffe pekara Mrvica posebna je po mnogo čemu i potpuno smo sigurni da ćete, nakon čitanja ovog teksta, prvu pauzu na poslu ili slobodan dan iskoristiti da posjetite ovo zbilja posebno mjesto.

Mrvica nije u centru, na nekoj od „razvikanih“ lokacija, jer ono što ona nudi nećete naći nigdje u gradu i rado ćete se odmaknuti od centra jer užitak je vrijedan toga. Vjerujte nam na riječ i prošetajte do Paromlinske ulice u sarajevskom naselju Čengić vila. Ako tražite masne pite ili peciva zasićena aditivima, Mrvicu zaobiđite u širokom luku. Toga tamo prosto nema. I kažu da neće ni biti.

Za početak, ne izgleda kao pekara već kao fency kafeterija, sa odvojenim dijelovima za pušače i nepušače. Uvijena u nježne boje, žutu i bež, djeluje toplo i ušuškano.No, idemo da se počastimo.

Za početak, tu su savršena peciva, od čistoga brašna. Samo u Mrvici na jednom mjestu možete naći kruh od raževog brašna, pur pur čuveni kruh s mrkvom, chia kruh i kifle, mirisne kroasane i... I mnogo toga. Macaroni, čuveni francuski kolač zaštitni je znak Mrvice, ali je tek jedan u nizu kojem zasigurno nećete odoljeti. Tu je mrvica tatli, francuski kolač opera, tiramisu i sutlijaš sa šumskim voćem koji se

serviraju u poklopljenim starinskim teglicama, piccaso šnita, američka pita u nekoliko fantastičnih okusa, a sve pravljeno na principu kompaktnih mini porcija. Nisu zaboravljeni ni dijabetičari, za koje se u Mrvici spremaju posebni kolači bez šećera, a očaravajućih ukusa. I izbor napitaka je čudesan, od koktela od svježe cijeđenog voća do tople čokolade sa jagodama, cappuccina ili našeg favorita - gurmanske kafe uz koju dobijate pet mini kolača po izboru.Mrvicu je teško napustiti nakon što ste samo popili kafu, zbog koje ste došli. Ostaje se zbog kolača i doručka ili samo salate.

Mislili su u Mrvici i na one koji su u žurbi. Za njih imaju hrskave sendviče, od običnih sa sirom i mesnim dodatkom, do onih sa lososom, piletinom ili vegeterijanskih, a nećete odoljeti ni sendviču mrvica. I izbor doručaka je više nego fin - od klasičnog američkog doručka sa sirom, šunkom i namazima, preko kuhanih jaja, vazdušastih omleta do našeg omiljenog - jaja na oko serviranih u mini tavi u kojoj su se pekla.

Mrvica nije nastala po principu "mi ćemo nešto slično". Naprotiv, iz Francuske i Njemačke dovedeni su vrhunski tehnolozi, poslastičari i pekari koji su obučavali domaće osoblje. Ovdje se kolači ne prave "iz kesice" već po starinskoj tradicionalnoj recepturi u pravoj maloj manufakturi koja se nalazi ispod objekta i svakog trena omogućava potpuno svjež proizvod direktno iz pećnice.

PREDSTAVLJAMO / INTRODUCING PARISIAN BAKERY IN SARAJEVO

CRUMB BY CRUMB

Macaron, the famous French sweet which is a trademark of the bakery Mrvica, is surely only one of a kind that you will find irresistible.

Paris is a city whose special, timeless charm comes from small cafes, bakeries and small restaurants placed in narrow streets where spreads the fragrance of croissants and aroma spices, from cinnamon, basil, all over to vanilla.

One such entirely copied Parisian story, was placed in Sarajevo recently. Coffee bakery Mrvica is exceptional for many things and we are absolutely sure that you will, after reading this text, your first day-off or weekend use to visit this quite unique place.

Mrvica is not situated in one of those “over-hyped” locations, but what

80

it has to offer, you will not find in any other place and you will gladly escape the city centre because the pleasure is worth it. Take our words and walk to the Parolimska Street in Sarajevo, at Cengic vila area.

If you looking for greasy pies or pastries saturated with additives, bypass Mrvica. You simply cannot find it there. And they say they will never have it.

At first, it doesn’t look like a bakery but more as a fancy café with separate areas for smokers and non-smokers. Wrapped in mild yellow and beige, it looks warm and tucked. Well, let’s go for a treat.

For beginning, there are perfect pastries, made from clean flour. Only in Mrvica you can find rye bread, pur pur (purple wheat) - famous bread with carrot, chia bread and rolls, fragrant croissant and.... much more.

Macaron, the famous French sweet is a trademark of the bakery Mrvica but is surely only one of a the tempting products. There is also Crumb tart- French Opera sweet, tiramisu, rice pudding with berries served in closed antique jars, Pica-

sso cake, American pie in several different flavours and all that made in small, dense portions. They thought about diabetic people as well, so special cakes are made without sugar with stunning flavour.

The list of beverages is also extensive, cocktails, fresh squeezed juices, and hot chocolate with strawberries, cappuccino, or our favourite- gourmand coffee served with five cakes of your choice.

It is hard to leave Mrvica after having drunk only a cup of coffee, only which was the reason why you came. You stay because of the cakes or breakfast or only salad.

They also thought about people in a hurry. They have crunchy sandwiches, from basic to those with cheese and meat, with salmon, chicken or vegetarian but anyway, you won’t resist even the crunchy sandwich.

The choice for breakfast is more than fine- from basic American breakfast with cheese, bacon and toppings, baked dishes, airy omelettes to your favourite- poached eggs served in pans in which they were baked.

Mrvica did not start off from the idea “we will do the same”.

Quite opposite, the top technologists, pastry cooks and bakers were taken from France and Germany to teach domestic stuff. Here, cakes are not made “from the pouches” but according to the old, traditional recipes in a real small, manufacture which is placed below the object and every moment, they offer you completely fresh products, right from the oven.

BOSNA I HERCEGOVINA / BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA

Moja čudesna zemlja Od sarajevske Vijećnice, preko srebreničke Gradine, Kupreškoga polja na kojem u slobodi živi na stotine poludivljih konja, kraljevskoga grada Jajca, pa sve do bistre i ledene Bune u Blagaju, ova je zemlja puna čuda rijetke ljepote. Okrenite stranu i nećete se više pitati zašto im se uvijek vraćamo.

My Amazing Country If you start your journey from Vijećnica( old city hall) in Sarajevo, then continue to Gradina in Srebrenica and all the way to Kupres, where hundreds of wild horses live in freedom. When you visit the royal town of Jajce and continue to icy clear Buna in Blagaj, you’ll discover a country full of exceptional beauty. If you just turn the page, you’ll never ask why do we always come back.

UKRASI JAJCA

Stare bosanske kuće

Domovi koji su poštovali privatnost Napisao i fotografisao: Amir Bašimamović

Bosanske stare kuće u Jajcu sličnog su oblika kao u ostalim dijelovima Bosne, no imaju specifičnost koja ih donekle razlikuje od ostalih.

Ogleda se u činjenici da su stare jajačke kuće determinisane terenom na kojem su građene, pa izgledaju kao da su jedna na drugoj.

Podrumi i magaze služili su za odlaganje namirnica jer je u takvim podrumima uvijek konstantna temperatura oko desetak stepeni Celzijusa.

Mnogo računa se vodilo o pozicioniranju prozora, koji nisu smjeli gledati u komšijske, a sve zbog održavanja dobrih komšijskih odnosa.

U KAMENU ILI ZEMLJI, ALI S DOBRIM PODRUMOM

ARHITEKTURA KUĆA

Zbog potrebe za obradivim zemljištem i lijepom avlijom, kuće su uvijek pravljene na najkamenitijem dijelu posjeda. Stoga je stara jajačka kuća uvijek jednim dijelom u kamenu ili zemlji, ali s dobrim podrumom.

84

Kuće u Jajcu većinom su građene na dvije etaže. Prva se uvijek zidala kombinacijom kamena i drvenih greda, dok je druga često bila od drvenih greda i plivske sedre. Za pokrov se koristila drvena šindra, a kasnije šindra pokrivena limom kao mnogo dugotrajnijim materijalom.

THE ORNAMENTS OF JAJCE

Old Bosnian Houses Homes that respected privacy

By Amir Bašimamović Although old houses in Jajce are similar in shape as other houses in Bosnia, they are distinctive in a way. That distinctive feature of old houses in Jajce is determined by the land where they were build, so they look as if they stand on the top of each other.

IN ROCKS OR GROUND BUT WITH THE GOOD BASEMENT Due to the need for arable land, nice garden, the houses were built on the rockiest part of a property.

That is the main reason why an old house in Jajce is always partly placed in rocks or in ground, but with the good basement.

Basements and storerooms served for storage of foodstuffs because they kept the constant temperature of 10 centigrade. They paid special attention on the house positioning, which mustn’t have looked in the neighbour’s, all for keeping good neighbourly relations.

HOUSE ARCHITECTURE Houses in Jajce were mainly built on two floors. The first floor was always built from the combination of stone and wooden beams, whereas the second was built from the wooden beams and tuff - a type of a porous material produced by microorganisms in Pliva. They used wooden shingles for roofing and later shingles covered with sheet metal as a type of long-lasting material.

SAFIKADIN GROB

LEGENDA O VJEČNOJ LJUBAVI Mladi i zaljubljeni Banjalučani i danas na tom mjestu ostavljaju cvijeće i pale svijeće vjerujući da će im to pomoći da nađu vječnu i neuništivu ljubav, onu kojoj ni smrt ne može ništa Ljubav dvoje mladih koji su pripadali drugačijem vjerskom, kulturnom i civilizacijskom krugu bila je teško održiva u taj vakat. Djevojka nije mogla sama izlaziti iz kuće niti se sastajati sa muškarcima, a po običaju, budućeg muža birali su roditelji. Ljubav je unaprijed bila osuđena na propast i nije bila narušena ni naredbom o iznenadnom pokretu austrougarske vojske. Bijeg koji su zajedno planirali, morao je biti odgođen, ali dvoje mladih zaklelo se na vječnu ljubav i vjernost do groba. Uskoro u Banju Luku do 86

Safikade stiže vijest o pogibiji njene ljubavi, a nedugo potom, roditelji joj protiv njene volje pronalaze odgovarajućeg muža.

Legenda kaže da je Safikada, obučena u vjenčanicu, otišla do Tvrđave i stala pred top, koji je u to vrijeme pucnjem označavao podne. Njeno mrtvo tijelo je palo na mjestu današnjeg spomenika, koji svjedoči o vječnoj ljubavi.

Po drugoj, ništa manje rasprostranjenoj verziji, lijepu Safikadu ubio je austrijski vojnik, jer nije stala na znak

"HALT!" (Stoj), što je izazvalo burne proteste žitelja grada na Vrbasu.

U cijeloj priči važan je kastelski top, koji se javlja i u verziji da je pod Kastelom poginuo Safikadin izabranik.

Zašto je sporan top? Jednostavno jer s banjalučke tvrdave, koliko je poznato, nikada nije pucnjem iz topa oglašavano podne. Topovi su se oglašavali za vrijeme turske okupacije u svečanim prilikama, ali ni tada tane nije ispaljivano, jer je bilo samo punjenje barutom! Na Safikadinom grobu i danas mladi i zaljubljeni Banjalučani ostavljaju cvijeće i pale svijeće vjerujući da će im to pomoći da nađu vječnu i neuništivu ljubav, onu kojoj ni smrt ne može ništa. Na osnovu ove legende nastala je istoimena opera.

Safikada je pripremana šest godina kao regionalni projekt. Autor teksta i libreta je publicista Slavko Podgorelac, a kompozitor Muharem Insanić.

SAFIKADA’S TOMB

LEGEND ABOUT ETERNAL LOVE Young and enamoured Banjalucans, even today, put flowers and light candles believing that it will help them find eternal and indestructible love, the one that even death can do nothing.

Love of two people who belonged to different religious, cultural and civilization circles was hard to maintain at that time. A girl was neither allowed to leave a house alone, nor meet with men and it was a custom that a husband was chosen by parents.

Love was condemned to failure in advance and it was not troubled with commands of a sudden movement of Austrian army.

The escape which both of them planned had to be postponed but the two of them swore for eternal love and faithfulness till death. Soon, the news about the death of her beloved

one reached Safikada in Banja Luka, and not so long after that, her parents chose her a proper husband.

The legend tells that Safikada, garbed in a wedding dress, went to the Fortress and stood in front of cannon, which at the time signalized noon with a shot. Her dead body fell at the place of today’s memorial, which testifies eternal love.According to the second version, not less widespread, Austrian soldier killed Safikada because she did not stop on the sign “HALT” (stop), which evoked boisterous reaction from citizens of Vrbas.

In the whole story, Castel Fortress is important which also appears in a version according to which Safikada’s chosen one died there. Why the Fortress is questionable? Simply because from the Fortress of Banja Luka, so far as it was known, a shot from a cannon had never signalized noon. Cannons resounded during the period of Turkish occupation on festive occasions but even then, a bullet was not shot because they were only filled with gunpowder. Young and enamoured Banjalucans, even today, place flowers and light candles believing that it will help them find eternal and indestructible love, the one that even death can do nothing.

Based on this story, homonymous opera was created; Safikada had been prepared for six years as a regional project. The author of the text and libretto is a publicist Slavko Podgorelac and a compositor is Muharem Insanic.

BLAGAJ

Turistički raj u srcu

Hercegovine Herzegovina Tourist Paradise in the Heart of

Kada se smjestite u mir blagajske tekijske avlije, po kojoj je ovo područje poznato širom svijeta, prestat ćete se pitati zašto je Blagaj bio mjesto kojem su se vraćali i rimski plemenitaši i osmanski veziri i austrougarski oficiri When you seat yourself in the harmony of Blagaj Tekke’ garden, after which this place is wide-known around the world, you will stop questioning yourself why Blagaj is a place where Roman noblemen, Ottoman viziers and Austro-Hungarian officers used to come back Ako iz pravca Sarajeva krenete ka jugu zemlje, da nahranite pogled i okrijepite dušu na bijelim kamenim lukovima Staroga mosta, ne vraćajte se odmah natrag.

Produžite južno još samo malo. Na tek tri kilometra od aerodroma u ovom gradu, smjestio se pravi mali raj na zemlji.

Blagaj sa svojom tekijom, zbog blizine Jadranskoga mora mediteranskom toplom klimom, ugrijat će vas i u ovim zimskim danima. A ne zaboravite, samo ste dva sata vožnje od snijegom prekrivenih planina.

Kada se smjestite u mir blagajske tekijske avlije, po kojoj je ovo područje poznato širom svijeta, prestat ćete se pitati zašto je Blagaj bio mjesto kojem su se vraćali i rimski plemenitaši i osmanski veziri i austrougarski oficiri.

Zbog jako velikog broja sunčanih dana, a ima ih gotovo dvije stotine tokom godine, na ovom području u savršenom miru živi oko 150 vrsta ptica, među kojima je najpoznatiji bjeloglavi sup, vrsta kojoj prijeti nestanak i koje, osim u Blagaju,

ima samo na otoku Cresu u susjednoj Hrvatskoj.

Hladne vode Bune, koja izvire iz dubine od oko 200 metara ispod kraške stijene, stanište su najpoznatijoj evropskoj pastrmci, a vrelim suncem hrane se kivi, grožđe, smokve, nar...

Prema predaji, tekiju na vrelu Bune osnovali su derviši bektašijskog reda u XVl vijeku. Evlija Čelebija je zapisao da je mostarski muftija Zijaudin Ahmed-ibn Mustafauz na izvoru Bune dao sagraditi tekiju helvetijskog reda u „kojoj derviši vode prijateljske razgovore i naučne diskusije“.

Sredinom XlX vijeka obnovio ju je Omer-paša Latas i ona od tada pripada kaderijskom redu. Danas je tekija u posjedu nakšibendija. Biseri orijentalne bosanske arhitekture ogledaju se na mirnim vodenim površinama. Zgrade su građene na sprat sa izbačenim doksatima i imaju prostrane avlije.

Dvije musafirhane (kuće za goste) služile su za smještaj putnika, koji bi se u tekiji zaustavljali radi odmora.

In case you go from Sarajevo to the south of the country, to feed your eyes, and refresh your soul with the white stone arches of the Old Bridge, don’t return straight away. Continue to the south a little bit. Three kilometres from the airport in this city, settled a genuine, small paradise on earth. Blagaj with its Tekke, due to the closeness to the Adriatic Sea with its warm climate, will warm you up even in these cold, winter days. And don’t forget, it is only two hours away from snow-covered mountains.

When you seat yourself in the harmony of Blagaj Tekke’ garden, after which this place is wide-known around the world, you will stop questioning yourself why Blagaj is a place where Roman noblemen, Ottoman viziers and Austro-Hungarian officers used to come back Since the number of sunny days is rather large and there are almost two hundred a year, 150 bird species live in a perfect peace on this area, among which the most famous is griffon vulture, the specie which is threatened with extermination and, besides Blagaj, it can be found only on an island Cres in neighbouring Croatia. Cold Buna waters, which spring from karsts rocks 200m depth, are settlements for the most famous, European trout; and kiwi, grapes, figs, pomegranate... feed with the hot sun....

According to the legend, Blagaj Tekke was founded by the Bektashi order of dervishes in 16th century.

Evlija Celebi wrote down that Mufti Zijaudin Ahmed-ibn Mustafauz gave a Helveti order Tekke to be built at the spring of Buna where “dervishes had friendly talks and scientific discussions”.

In the middle of 19th century, it was restored by Omar Pasha Latas and ever since then; it belonged to Mevlevi order dervishes. Today, the Naqshbandi (Sunni spiritual order) own the Tekke. Pears of oriental, Bosnian, architecture are seen in peaceful, water surfaces. Buildings are built with floors, protuberant verandas and spacious gardens. Two musafirkhanas (guest rooms) were used to accommodate travellers, who took a rest at the Tekke.

NESVAKIDAŠNJA LJEPOTA I RIJEDAK FENOMEN

Ti prekrasni divlji konji Uglavnom nisu opasni i treba samo biti strpljiv i sačekati da odu. Sirene i povici ljudi neće ih otjerati jer su na njih naviknuti

EXTRAORDINARY BEAUTY AND A RARE PHENOMENON

Those Wild Horses Mostly, they are not dangerous and it takes patience and time for them to go.

Horns and shouts will not send them away because they got used to them

91

BOSNA I HERCEGOVINA / BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA

F

enomen divljih konja, kakav se u našoj zemlji može vidjeti u regiji Kupresa i Livanjskog polja, iznimno je rijedak u svijetu, ako izuzmemo američke mustange. Na stotine konja slobodno luta brdima i poljima ovih krajeva.

Mještani ovog dijela Bosne i Hercegovine, ali i stručnjaci, kažu kako se zapravo ne radi o pravim divljim konjima, prije bi ih nazvali poljudivljim, već potomcima pitomih domaćih konja koje su vlasnici, s uvođenjem mehanizacije, prije oko pola stoljeća pustili da slobodno lutaju vrletima.

Trenutno na području, veličine oko 150 kilometara kvadratnih uglavnom na visoravni Krug, slobodno luta nešto preko tri stotine konja, fascinantne ljepote, tvoreći iznimnu turističku atrakciju, mada u njihovoj ljepoti vole uživati i domaći ljudi, dolazeći na izlet ili tek uzimajući predah, ako su na putovanju.

92

Nije rijetkost da se, ukoliko idete automobilom ovim krajem, morate zaustaviti jer se dešava da izlaze na cestu, tražeći i ližući, uglavnom zimi, ostatke soli. Uglavnom nisu opasni i treba samo biti strpljiv i sačekati da odu. Sirene i povici ljudi neće ih otjerati jer su na njih naviknuti.

Krivolovci su drastično smanjili njihov broj, ali se njihovom zakonskom zaštitom na lokalnom nivou, tome stalo ukraj. Među ovim konjima trenutno nema niti jedne čiste pasmine jer je vremenom došlo do križanja različitih pasmina, od bosanskog brdskog konja do takozvanih „arapina“ i „posavaca“.

Zanimljivo je i da su iznimno otporni na gotovo sve bolesti od kojih konji obično obolijevaju, zimi im dlaka postaje znatno duža, pa su i po tome iznimno rijedak fenomen.

W

ild horses’ phenomenon, which can be seen in our country in districts Kupres or Livanjsko polje, is very rare in the World if we don’t take into account American mustangs.

Hundreds of horse wanders freely over the hills and fields of these regions.

Locals of this part of Bosnia and Herzegovina , but experts as well, say that these are not real wild horses, but rather half-wild, offspring of tamed, domestic horses which the owners, due to the mechanisation usage, about half a century ago freed to wander over crags.

Currently, on this area of 150 square kilometres mostly on Krug plateau, over three hundred horses freely wander, stunningly beautiful, creating an amazing tourist attraction, but locals enjoy their beauty as well when they come on a trip or make a break if they travel.

It is not rare, if you go by car through this area that you will have to stop because it happens that they go on roads, mostly during winter, to look for and lick remaining salt on roads. Mainly, they are not dangerous and it takes patience and time for them to go. Horns and shouts will not send them away because they got used to them.

Poachers drastically reduced their number but the legal protection on local level ended that.

There is no pure breed among these horses because there was an intersection of different breeds over time-from Bosnian rocky-mountain horse to socalled “Arabs” and “Posavac”.

Interesting fact is that they are highly resistible on almost all diseases that usually affect them, during winter, their hair becomes longer and that makes them a rare phenomenon.

MAGAREĆA FARMA

Zavidovićka bajka Što se tiče druželjubivosti, magarci su baš kao ljudi – svaki ima svoj karakter po kojem se razlikuje od onog drugog, kazao nam je vlasnik Alen Jusupović Iza sedam brda, sedam gora, sedam rijeka i sedam mora... Tako su počinjale bajke koje smo čitali kao djeca i kada smo odrastali, shvatali smo da je sve to izmišljena, uljepšana stvarnost.

Ipak, neke bajke mogu da ožive i postanu realnost. I nije potreban čarobnjak, i nema bundeva koje se pretvaraju u kočije, nema vila ni vilenjaka. Potrebna je želja, volja i velika ljubav. I da, nešto novaca.

Alen Jusupović iz Zavidovića imao je sve to – želju, volju i ljubav, a novce je osvojio na konkursu USAID-a u okviru programa „Imam ideju“. A ideja se zvala pokretanje farme. I dok se svi odlučuju za farme krava, koza ili ovaca, Alen se odlučio za uzgoj magaraca. Tako je nastala prva i za sada jedina farma ovih životinja u našoj zemlji.

Na farmi, koja je zapravo prava seoska bajka, trenutno živi 15 magaraca i jedan konjić poni. Porodica Jusupović uskoro planira osnivanje zoo vrta sa isključivo domaćim životinjama, gdje će roditelji moći doći sa djecom i pobjeći od svakodnevnog stresa. Nakon toga, kreće se u razvoj ruralnog turizma, osnivanja malog etno sela u kojem

94

ćete moći prenoćiti i jesti isključivo domaću hranu, onu koju domaćini sami proizvedu.

Magareće mlijeko je jako zdravo, gotovo se može reći da je prirodni lijek, posebno za plućne bolesnike. Jedna litra košta stotinu maraka, prodaja ide dobro, a ono što se ne proda, Jusupovići koriste za proizvodnju prirodnih kozmetičkih preparata, krema i balzama od kombinacije mlijeka, meda i maslinovog ulja i trenutno su okupirani njihovom promocijom. Odgovor tržišta je odličan i vjeruju da će sve planove koje imaju, uz puno truda i malo sreće, i uspjeti ostvariti. U planu su imali i pokretanje farme domaćih kokoši i prodaju jaja, ali su lisice „odlučile“ da im uspore taj proces, pa će ova zamisao morati pričekati izgradnju odgovarajućih objekata.

Ono što nas je posebno zanimalo na ovom zanimljivom mjestu jesu odgovori na neka pitanja: možemo li reći da je neko glup kao magarac, jesu li tvrdoglavi kao što ljudi kažu i koliko su druželjubivi.

Tvrdoglavi jesu, ali glupi nisu.

Naprotiv, iznimno su pametne životinje. Kada pođe padati mrak, sami odlaze u štale, svaki na svoje mjesto i nikada se neće desiti da zauzmu tuđe. Osim toga, nikada neće popiti prljavu vodu kao ni vodu koja je dugo stajala, moraju piti svježu. Što se tiče druželjubivosti, magarci su baš kao ljudi – svaki ima svoj karakter po kojem se razlikuje od onog drugog, kazao nam je vlasnik Alen Jusupović

DONKEY’S FARM

A Zavidovici Fairy Tale When it comes to conviviality, donkeys are the same as people-each of them has its own character which distinguishes it from others, said the owner himself Alen Jusupovic Beyond seven hills, beyond seven forests, seven rivers and seven seas....That’s how fairy tales traditionally started which we read when we were children and when we grew up, we realized that all of that was invented, beautified reality.

Still, some tales can be revived and become reality. And it takes neither a wizard nor pumpkin that turns into wheels; there are neither fairies nor trolls. It takes a wish, motivation and huge love. And of course, some money.

Alen Jusupovic from Zavidovici had it all-wish, motivation and love and he won the money on USAID competition under the project “I have an idea”. And the idea was to start up a farm. When everybody else chose cow, goat or sheep farm, Alen chose donkey farming. That is how the first and the only farm of this kind started in our country. At the farm, which is a real, country fairy tale, currently lives 15 donkeys and a pony.

Jusufovic family plans to open a zoo with domestic animals only where parents will come with their children and escape the daily stress.

The next step is development of country tourism, setting a small, ethno village where tourists can sleep over and eat only traditional food, the one made by the locals.

Donkey’ milk is very healthy, it can be almost said to be the natural cure, especially for pulmonary patients. One litre costs 700KM, it sells good and what is not sold, the Jusufovic use to produce natural cosmetic products, creams, balsam mixtures of milk, honey and olive oil and they currently work on their advertising. The market feedback is excellent and they believe that they will realize all their plans, with a lot of effort and a little luck.

so this idea will have to wait construction of suitable structure.

What interested us most at this exciting place were answers on some question: can we actually say that someone is stupid like a donkey, are as stubborn as people say and how much are they friendly.

They are stubborn but they are not stupid. Quite contrary, they are very intelligent animals. When it gets dark, they go to stalls themselves, each of them at its own place and they would never occupy others place. Moreover, they will never drink filthy water or water that stayed for a longer period; they have to drink it fresh. When it comes to conviviality, donkeys are same as people-each of them has its own character which distinguishes it from others, said the owner himself Alen Jusupovic

They planned to start domestic chicken farm and sell eggs but foxes “decided” to slow down the process

BOSNA I HERCEGOVINA / BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA

SREBRENIK - NAJOČUVANIJA TVRĐAVA IZ SREDNJEG VIJEKA U BOSNI I HERCEGOVINI SREBRENIK - BEST PRESERVED MEDIEVAL FORTRESS IN BOSNIA AND HERZGOVINA

Stari grad Srebrenik (u Srebreniku ga zovu Gradina), prvi put se spominje 15. februara 1333. godine u ugovoru koji su pod Srebrenikom (tzv. Srebrenička povelja) zaključili Ban Stjepan II Kotromanić (1322.

- 1353.) sa jedne i predstavnici Dubrovačke Republike sa druge strane o ustupanju Stona, Pelješca, Prevlake i još nekih posjeda Republici u zamjenu za godišnji danak od 500 perpera.

Srebrenička kula je jedna od najočuvanijih tvrđava iz srednjeg vijeka u BiH, a bila je dom bosanskog bana Stjepana Kotromanića sve do njegove smrti.

Stari grad Srebrenik sastoji se iz tri dijela koja se nadovezuju jedan 96

na drugi sa četiri kule i omanjim dvorcem. Donji grad čini ulazna kvadratna četvorostrana kula - kapija sa pomoćnom zgradom i dvorištem. Odatle se pored zaobljene četvorostrane kule stiže do platoa na kome se nalazi kasarna, odakle, pored kvadratne četvorostrane kule, vode kamene stepenice do kapije Gornjeg grada odnosno Srebreničke citadele. U citadeli se nalazi manji dvorac, pored koga je na vrhu stijene iznad ulazne gradske kule - kapije smješten veliki okrugli četvorostrani Donžon.

U periodu poslije Osmanlija Srebrenik je bio u izvjesnoj historijskoj zaleđini, pa nema puno svjedočenja o gradu iz perioda austro-ugar-

ske vladavine niti Kraljevine Jugoslavije. Ponovno buđenje doživljava poslije Drugog svjetskog rata.

Do Starog grada dolazi se magistralnim putem M-18 (Sarajevo – Orašje). Ako dolazite prvi put, u centru Srebrenika na semaforima pratite putokaz za Gornji Srebrenik i strmom cestom krenite prema Gradini. Nakon pet kilometara vožnje na velikoj raskrsnici, između seoskog mezarja i trgovine, skrenite desno. Nakon oko 200 metara vožnje ili šetnje po lošem makadamskom putu, naći ćete se na odredištu. Iza metar i pol debelih vanjskih zidova ovog impresivnog zdanja skriva se pravo historijsko blago.

The Old Town Srebrenik (it is called Gradina in Srebrenik), was mentioned for the first time on 15th February in 1333. in a document signed in Srebrenik ( so-called Srebrenik Chart) by Ban Stjepan II Kotromanic (1322-1353.) on one side and the representatives of the Republic of Dubrovnik on the other in which Ston, Peljesac and some other areas were given to the Republic in exchange for annual tribute of 500 perpers. The fortress of Srebrenik is one of the best preserved medieval fortresses in Bosnia and Herzegovina and it used to be a home of the Bosnian ban Stjepan Kotromanic until his death.

The Old Town Srebrenik consists

of three parts which are attached to each other with four towers and a smaller castle. The lower town consist of an opening, square, four-sided tower- gate with an outbuilding and a yard. From there, along the rounded four-sided tower, you get to the plateau where the quarters are positioned and from there, stone steps lead you to the gate of the Upper Town to The Fortress of Srebrenik. Inside the Fortress is a smaller castle, next to which, on the top of a hill above an opening, tower-gate is placed huge, round, four-sided Donjon.

In the Ottoman period, Srebrenik was in a certain historical background so there is not much

evidence about the city neither from Austro-Hungarian Empire nor from the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. Its second awakening took place after the Second World War. You can reach The Old Town on the highway M-18 (Sarajevo-Orasje). If you go for the first time, follow the road sign for the Upper Srebrenik put on the traffic light in the centre of Srebrenik. After 5km drive, you will arrive to the large crossroad, between the rural cemetery and the market, take right. After 200m drive or walk over macadamised road, you will reach the place. Behind metre and a half thick, outer walls, this impressive construction hides a real, historical treasure.

INTERVJU / INTERVIEW

TOMISLAV CVITANUŠIĆ, ALPINISTA I MARATONAC

Himalaji SU MOJ SLJEDEĆI CILJ

I da ne znate ništa o njemu, već prilikom prvog susreta lako ćete zaključiti da je Tomislav Cvitanušić ostrašćeni sportista.

O tome detaljnije mogu posvjedočiti i fotografije na njegovom Facebook profilu prikazujući ga kako trči i u pet ujutro.

Zahvaljujući njemu i njegovim kolegama nedavno je uspješno održan još jedan Sarajevski polumaraton s više od 1.300 trkača iz 36 zemalja.

Osim trčanju, posvećen je alpinizmu, biciklizmu i plivanju.

Individualnim sportovima posvetio se nakon košarkaške karijere tokom koje je krajem osamdesetih igrao i u prvom timu KK Bosna, sarađujući u to vrijeme sa Mirzom Delibašićem i Ibrahimom Krehićem.

Even if you didn’t know anything about him, it is easy to conclude during your first meeting that Tomislav Cvitanusic is a passionate sportsman. His Facebook photos can attest to that showing him during his 5 a.m. run.

Thanks to him and his colleagues another Sarajevo half-marathon was successfully held with participation of over 1300 runners from 26 countries.

Apart from running he is also committed to alpinism, cycling and swimming. He took to individual sports after his basketball career, during which in the eighties he played in KK Bosna first team together with Mirza Delibasic and Ibrahim Krehic.

INTERVJU / INTERVIEW NA INTERVJU JE STIGAO PUN POZITIVNE ENERGIJE I PRISTUPAČNOSTI. KLASIČNI JE PRIMJER OSOBE U ČIJEM ZDRAVOM TIJELU ŽIVI ZDRAV DUH.

Argentina, Aconcagua

- ŽELIO SAM OSTATI ZDRAV I U DOBROJ KONDICIJI, JER AKO NISTE ZDRAVI, NEMATE ENERGIJE, ONDA ĆETE SE TEŠKO BAVITI DRUGIM STVARIMA, GOVORI TOMISLAV NA POČETKU RAZGOVORA. Bavite se različitim disciplinama. Šta za Vas znači stalno biti na izvoru adrenalina?

– Svakodnevno sam bar sat ili dva jako fizički aktivan. Radim po programima koji ovise o tome za što se spremam, odnosno za kakvo takmičenje. Kada sam se pripremao za Ironman Triathlon imao sam 15-18 sati treninga sedmično, uključujući plivanje, vožnju bicikla i trčanje.

Koliko je važan plasman nakon tako napornog treninga?

– Takmičenja triatlona i maratona su masovna takmičenja na kojima učestvuje i do 40.000 ljudi. Na maratonu u New Yorku, na kojem sam trčao 2008. godine, bilo ih je upravo toliko. Na Ironmanu u Klagenfurtu 2012., bilo je 2.400 takmičara. Mi koji se bavimo ovim disciplinama, prvo se sami sa sobom takmičimo. Uvijek imate profesionalce koji isključivo žive od toga i osvajaju prva mjesta i visoke novčane nagrade. Ja nisam profesionalac, nalazim izazov u tome da pobijedim samoga sebe. Jer sami sebi ste uvijek najteži protivnik.

Može li se reći da ste najvećim dijelom svog bića alpinista?

– Time me je zarazio Muhamed Gafić, doajen bh. alpinizma. U suštini, mnogi ljudi ne znaju da su alpinizam i visokogorstvo različite stvari. Kod visokogorstva ljudi idu u planine na velike visine, dok u alpinizmu ne mora biti presudna visina, koristiš se alatima, užadima, klinovima, tehnikama... Volim visine, ali volim da se popnem na Romaniju ili Visočicu. Kod mene je to pomiješano.

S kojim planinskim vrhom ste započeli?

– S Trebevićem.

100

Najveći vrh koji ste osvojili je Akonkagva. Koliko ste se pripremali?

– Cijeli život. Penjanje na visinu od 7.000 metara ne znači samo da ste fizički spremni. Morate biti i mentalno jaki da izdržite takvo iskušenje. Na 6.000 metara imate na raspolaganju samo 40 posto kisika.

Nosite teret od 25 do 30 kilograma, šator, provodite noći na -25 stepeni, držite sve u vreći kako se ne bi smrznulo… U takvim okolnostima pokazuje se mentalna snaga. Fizička se može steći treniranjem, ali za sticanje mentalne snage treba malo više vremena. Naša ekspedicija imala je četiri člana, tri iz BiH, dok je četvrti član bio Emanuel Bocha, Argentinac, koji je bio naš vodič. Ne penjete se na Akonkagvu bez vodiča i dozvole Vlade za ulaz u nacionalni Ararat

Kada pokažem stranicima slike iz BiH, video o promociji turizma i prirodnih ljepota koji je bio na CNN-u, ostanu bez riječi. Gdje je onda problem?

Kako ne uspijevamo dovesti ljude da uživaju ovdje? Da potroše novac i osjećaju se dobro? Odgovornost je na turističkoj zajednici. Ono što mi imamo ovdje, mnogi nemaju! park. I naravno, morate poštovati pravila. U slučaju da ostavite otpatke na pogrešnom mjestu ili uradite bilo šta što nije u skladu s pravilima, dozvola vam se oduzima, plaćate kaznu od 500 dolara i bit ćete izbačeni iz nacionalnog parka bez mogućnosti da se više ikada vratite. Samo penjanje od ulaska u nacionalni park, od napuštanja civilizacije do dolaska na vrh i povratka trajalo je 17 dana. Šta biste izdvojili kao najteža iskušenja?

– Uvijek mislite na one koje ste ostavili iza sebe u dolini, nedostatak komunikacije, nema interneta, ne možete se nikome javiti... Visina vam uzima energiju, a nemate apetita. Izgubili smo u prosjeku oko devet kilograma.

Kako ste se obično hranili?

– Uvijek nosimo plinska kuhala da možemo napraviti nešto toplo. Hrana koju smo nosili nije bila teška,

GrossGlockner, Austria

Dolomiti, Italija

jer se o tome vodi računa. Konzumirali smo laganu hranu, ali gore nema apetita. Čovjek nema volje za pićem i jelom, ali se hrana mora uzimati na silu da bi se energija obnovila i da bi se moglo nastaviti dalje. Veliko je to mentalno iskušenje. Mnogi timovi su se raspadali, vraćali s pola puta, nisu se slagali.

Mi smo bili spremni, naoružani znanjem i željom da izvedemo akciju, tako da se naša zastava zaviorila na vrhu Akonkagve.

Kako ste podnosili niske noćne temperature?

– Jurišni kamp bio je na 6.100 metara visine. Tu nema životinja niti bilo kakvog života. Kondori lete do nekih 5.000 metara. Teško je spavati, spavate nekoliko minuta, onda se budite jer nemate zraka, opet zaspete i tako do zore. Vjetar šiba i ako vam odnese šator šanse za preživljavanje su minimalne.

sam u područja u kojem se PKK sukobljava s Vladinim snagama.

Bili smo u području gdje je većinsko stanovništvo tursko, pa smo bili u gradu ispod Ararata gdje žive Kurdi.

I jedni i drugi su predivni ljudi, jako gostoljubivi. Nije bilo razlike među ljudima na koje smo nailazili na putovanjima u Južnoj Americi, na jugoistoku Turske, Austriji, Italiji, Francuskoj… Možda smo mi dolazili među ljude koji znaju da smo mi alpinisti ljudi s dobrim namjerama, otvorenog srca i jednostavno su s oduševljenjem primali takve goste.

S velikom radoznalošću su postavljali pitanja o zemlji iz koje dolazimo.

Kako volite najviše putovati?

– Pješke (smijeh).

Ironman Austria

Vašington DC

Na takvim ekspedicijama nerijetko se dešavaju i situacije sa smrtnim ishodom!?

– Kada smo izašli na vrh, trebali smo krenuti brzo nazad, jer se približavala oluja. Kratko nakon nas stigla je poljska ekspedicija u kojoj je bio Mareka Radiševski, s kojim smo se bili sprijateljili u kampu. Nakon što smo ga pohvalili jer se uspio popeti na vrh, samo je odmahnuo glavom i izgubio svijest. Pokušali smo mu pružiti prvu pomoć, ali Marek je umro. Težak je trenutak kada morate ostaviti prijatelja alpinistu, jer ga ne možete nositi prema dolje.

Prekrili smo njegovo tijelo folijom i stavili kamenje okolo. Nemili događaj se desio u srijedu, a spasilačke ekipe argentinske vojske su tek u nedjelju uspjele doći do vrha da snesu njegovo tijelo u dolinu da bi mogao biti sahranjen. To je realnost i na nju je čovjek spreman.

Koji će biti Vaš naredni poduhvat?

– Moj partner Ismir Jusko i ja sanjamo Himalaje, neki vrh iznad 8.000 metara na kojem će se zavioriti zastava BiH. Sve o čemu smo do sada maštali smo i ostvarili.

Volim reći da naši preci nisu izašli iz pećine i da nisu vidjeli šta se nalazi preko planine u drugoj dolini, mi ne bismo bili tu gdje smo sad.

Kako biste ocijenili gostoprimstvo ljudi u različitim dijelovima svijeta gdje ste boravili?

– Na jugoistoku Turske boravio

INTERVJU / INTERVIEW HE ARRIVED FOR THE INTERVIEW FILLED WITH POSITIVE ENERGY AND ACCESSIBILITY. HE IS A CLASSIC EXAMPLE OF A PERSON WITH A HEALTHY MIND IN A HEALTHY BODY.

Bjelasnica

- I WANTED TO STAY HEALTHY AND IN GOOD CONDITION, BECAUSE IF YOU ARE NOT HEALTHY AND HAVE NO ENERGY IT IS HARD TO DO OTHER THINGS, SAYS TOMISLAV AT THE START OF OUR CONVERSATION. You are involved in different disciplines. What does it mean to you to be at a constant source of adrenalin?

– I am very physically active on a daily basis for at least an hour or two. I work according to programs that depend on what I am preparing for rather for what type of competition. When I prepared for Ironman Triathlon, I had 15 to 18 hours of training a week including swimming, cycling and running.

How important is the ranking after such a strenuous training?

– Triathlon and marathon competitions are mass competitions with participation of up to 40.000 people. New York marathon that I ran in 2008 had that many people.

Ironman in Klagenfurt in 2012 had 2400 competitors. Those of us who engage in these disciplines are competing with ourselves primarily. You always have professionals that live exclusively off of that and take first places as well as high monetary rewards. I am not a

Maraton, Sarajevo

102

professional, I find a challenge in defeating myself because you are always your own hardest opponent.

Can we say that you are an alpinist in the largest part of your being?

– I was infected by it by Muhamed Gafic, doyen of alpinism in BIH. Basically many people do not know that alpinism and hiking are different things. In hiking people climb mountains of high altitude whilst in alpinism altitude is not crucial since you use tools, ropes, wedges, techniques…I like heights but I also like to climb Romanija or Visocica.

It’s a mixed feeling for me.

What was your first mountain peak?

– Trebevic.

When I show pictures from BIH to foreigners as well as the video promoting tourism and natural beauties broadcast on CNN they are left speechless. Where is the problem then? How is it that we cannot manage to bring people here to enjoy themselves, to spend money and feel good? The responsibility is upon Tourism community. Many do not have what we have here.

The highest peak you conquered is Aconcagua. How long did the preparations last?

– My whole life. In order to climb an altitude of 7000 meters it is not enough to be physically ready. You have to be mentally strong in order to endure such a trial. At 6000 meters you only have 40 percent of available oxygen. You are carrying weight of 25 to 30 kilograms, tent, as well as spending nights at minus 25 Celsius with everything in your sleeping bag so it doesn’t get frozen…In circumstances like that your mental strength is shown.

Physical strength can be gained through training but in order to gain mental strength it requires a little bit more time. Our expedition had four members, three from BIH whilst the fourth member was Emanuel Bocha from Argentina

What would you say were your hardest trials?

– You always think about those you left behind in the valley, lack of communication, no internet, you cannot call anyone…The altitude takes away your energy and you have no appetite. On average we lost nine kilograms.

What did you eat?

– We always carry gas cookers in order to make something hot.

The food we carried was not heavy because that is something we had to take into consideration. We consumed light food but you have no appetite up there. A person has no desire to eat or drink but you have to force feed yourself in order to replenish the energy to be able to go on. It is a huge mental trial. Many teams fell apart, returned half-way or did not get along. We were ready, armed with knowledge and desire

Stockholm

who was our guide. You do not climb Aconcagua without a guide and a permit from the Government to enter the national park. And of course you have to abide by the rules. In case you leave trash at a wrong place or do anything that is not according to the rules your permit is revoked, you pay a 500 dollar fine and you are expelled from the national park without any options to return. The climb itself, from entering the national park, leaving civilization, reaching the peak and returning took 17 days.

to complete the action so our flag was planted at Aconcagua peak.

How did you deal with low night temperatures?

– Our base camp was at 6100 meters. There are no animals or life at that altitude. Condors fly up to 5000 meters. It is hard to sleep, you sleep for a few minutes and wake up since you have no air then fall asleep again and repeat it all until dawn. The wind is merciless and if your tent is blown away your chances of survival are minimum.

Expeditions such as yours often have situations with a deadly outcome!?

– When we got to the top we had to quickly go back because the storm was brewing. Shortly

after us a Polish expedition with Mareka Radisevski caught up to us. We made friends with him at the camp. After we congratulated him for managing to conquer the peak he turned his head and lost consciousness. We tried to help him by applying first aid but Marek died. It is a difficult moment when you have to leave your alpinist friend behind because you cannot carry him downhill. We covered his body with foil and placed rocks around it. The unfortunate event occurred on a Wednesday and rescue team of Argentinian army got to him on a Sunday and brought his body back to the valley so he could be buried. That is a reality and a man is ready for it.

What is going to be your next endeavor?

– My partner Ismir Jusko and I are dreaming of Himalayas, a peak above 8000 meters with BIH flag planted on it. So far we managed to fulfill all our fantasies. I like to say that if our ancestors did not leave the cave and saw what was going on over the mountain in the other valley we wouldn’t be where we are today.

How would you comment on the hospitality of people in different parts of the world you travelled?

– I was in southeast of Turkey in areas where PKK is fighting government forces. We were in an area where the majority of population is Turkish and we were in a town below Ararat where Kurds live. Both are very wonderful people full of hospitality. There was no difference among people we met in our travels in South America, southeast of Turkey, Austria, Italy, France… Maybe we encountered people that know that alpinists are people with good intentions, open heart and they simply were delighted to host such guests. They asked questions about the country we come from with great curiosity.

What is your favorite mode of travel?

– By foot (laughs).

IZABERI I ZAVOLI SALAJEVE

BOŽIĆNI RAJ

Porodica Salaj iz Hrvatske počela je božićnim lampicama ukrašavati svoj vrt prije 13 godina

N

a okućnici Salajevih je najobičnija stvar da se okupi puno sretnih ljudi i da se među njima podijele najsretniji trenuci u godini, kao maleni dar. O duhu Božićne Bajke rado će vam pričati svako ko je ikada bio. A oni, Salajevi, raduju se bezbrojnim sitnicama koje stvaraju posebne doživljaje i otvore vam srca. Kada živiš podno ovog moslavačkog obronka i znaš da stvaraš, nemaš puno izbora. Pomiri se s time da ti svako zavidi na spokoju i sreći. Na miru koji narušavaju samo zvukovi prirode. Lijepo je i potrebno da ovo imanje postane svijet, ali još je potrebnije da svijet dođe kod Salaja zbog onoga što postoji samo kod nas i u nama. Kad si se već našao kod Salajevih, imaš samo jednu obavezu, da ih zavoliš.

104

BAJKA KOJU I ZVIJEZDE GLEDAJU Samo jedan pogled je dovoljan da se u djetinjsvo urežu lijepa sjećanja i isto toliko je potrebno da se nakon puno godina ta ista sjećanja vrate.

Ovaj blistavi događaj lako ćete pronaći preko internet pretraživaća.

Ali samo ako svratiš, pronaći ćeš dijete u sebi, a svome djetetu priuštiti čaroliju bajke. Milioni zvjezdica razasuti svuda kao svjetlucavi prah iz vilinog čarobnog štapića obasjavaju sretna lica dok zrakom treperi veseli žamor i smijeh, miris čaja, vina i kolača. Simbioza dragih ljudi koji vraćaju ljubav tamo odakle je i potekla. Iz prvih koraka u stvaranju Božićne bajke obitelji Salaj. Ovo je bajka koju i zvijezde gledaju.

U TRAGANJU ZA UZBUĐENJIMA Vatra, svjetlo i toplina uvijek idu zajedno. Uzbuđenje nastaje kada se sve skupa pretvori u vatromet. Ako za vrisak oduševljenja nije dovoljno da svjetucave lampice blistaju najljepšim bojama, pobrinu se vatrometi. Svojim žarom i snagom šalju bezbroj zvjezdica u vis koje ne znaju kuda da krenu, prema zvjezdama na nebu ili da se vrate zvjezdicama na zemlji. Moćni huk mlinskog kola na mlinu obitelji Salaj, zaglušujući šum vodopada rijeke Grabovnice, jezera, mostovi, 1200 stabala i grmlja iza kojih se kriju mnoge tajne. Da biste doprijeli do njih krenite vijugaviim stazama.

Možda se snješko, pingvin, medo, labud, zaleđeno jezerce, sjeverni pol ili glavom i bradom djed Božić-

njak požele fotografirati s vama.

Fotografije koje načinite neka vas podsjećaju kako ste se osjećali.

Svojim osjećajima sudjelovali ste u stvaranju svakog našeg dana.

Vrijedi otkrivati novo.

ČAROLIJA GODINE U koje god doba godine da dođete, nudimo vam kulturne i zabavne događaje prema vašim osobnim željama, jer između naših događaja kao vezivno tkivo čeka vas naš svakodnevni život. Odlučite li se na šetnju potoci, stazice, otoci, jezera, šume i njegovani travnjaci garantiraju predivne vizure na 60.000 kvadrata raznolikosti.

ZALOGAJ I GUTLJAJ Kod nas se kaže, ako smo dobro jeli to znači da smo pojeli kakav ukusan mesni obrok. Salajnica sa čvarcima od najfinijeg mesa, pa ukusan zalogaj domaće šunke i hrena, pomno su osmišljeni recepti jedinstvene gastronomske ponude na imanju obitelji Salaj. Nakon ukusnog zalogaja uvijek godi i dobar napitak. Svaka čast svim čarobnjacima za vino, ali prazne bi nam bile čaše da da nema Salajevog vina. Kuhano vino, crno i bijelo, nezaobilazni su dio adventske ponude. Poželite li se ugrijati čajem, posebno pripreman od sedam vrsta čajeva, i najzahtjevnije goste oduševljava okusom i mirisom.

RECENZIJA: Obitelj Salaj započela je uređivati svoje dvorište božićnim lampicama prije 13 godine. Djelatnost obavlja registrirana kao zadruga pod nazivom Božićna Bajka.

U radu zadruge sudjeluje 10 članova zadruge. Godinama, uz veliki trud i entuzijazam, postala je najznačajnija manifestacija kontinentalnog dijela Hrvatske.

Mnoge svjetske medijske kuće prepoznale su ju kao jedinstven događaj te su napisane brojne reportaže i članci što je imalo za učinak da je manifestacija postala od značaja za razvoj turizma i promociju Hrvatske.

Institucije države, Ministarstvo turizma, Ministarstvo poduzetništva i obrta, Hrvatska turistička zajednica, Turistička zajednica Bjelovarsko-bilogorske županije te lokalna samopravna zajednica također su prepoznale važnost i ulogu ovog projekta i u skladu sa razvojnim planovima podupiru i podržavaju aktivnost organizacije svake Božićne bajke obitelji Salaj.

CHOOSE AND LOVE THE SALAJS

CHRISTMAS PARADISE

The Salaj family from Croatia began to decorate their garden with Christmas lights 13 years ago One of the most common things to see around the Salaj’s house and in their grounds is a gathering of happy people sharing the happiest moments of the year.

Anyone who has ever been there will be keen to tell you about the spirit of Christmas fairy tale. And the Salajs themselves are looking forward to the many little things that make for special occasions and that will open your hearts.

When you live at the foot of the Moslavina slopes and you know that you are doing something well, you do not have much choice. You have to come to terms with the fact that everyone envies your serenity and happiness, the peace and quiet that is disturbed only by the sounds of nature. It is right and good that this property becomes the world, but it is even more important for the world to come to the Salajs’ because of what exists only in their garden and in the family itself. When you find yourselves at the Salajs’, you have only one obligation: to love them.

106

A FAIRY TALE THAT THE STARS ARE WATCHING Just one look is enough to etch itself in childhood memory and one second for these memories to return later in life. This glittering event can be easily found using a web browser. But if you drop by, you'll find the inner child within you and you can reward your own child with the magic of fairy tales.

Millions of stars scattered everywhere like the shimmering powder of a fairy wand which paints a happy face, while the air is filled with good cheer and laughter, the scent of tea, wine and cakes. The symbiosis of kind people who respond with love to where it comes from from the first steps in creating the Christmas fairy tale of the Salaj family. This is the fairy tale that the stars are also watching.

SEEKING THRILLS Fire, light and heat always go together. Excitement bursts out when they all combine in the form of fireworks. If the screams of delight are not enough when the lights sparkle in the most beautiful colours, the fireworks do the trick.

Their glow and strength send countless stars into the air, not knowing whether to shoot upwards towards the stars in the sky or to return to the stars on the ground. The powerful sound of the mill-wheel from the Salaj family mill, the deafening noise of the waterfall from the River Grabovnica, the lakes, bridges, 1,200 trees and shrubs behind which many secrets are hidden. To reach them, follow the winding paths.

Perhaps a snowman, penguin, bear, swan, frozen lake, the North Pole or Father Christmas himself will want to have a photo with you. Let the photos you take remind you of how you felt. Your feelings contribute to creating our every day. It is worth discovering something new.

THE MAGIC OF THE YEAR Whichever time of the year you choose to visit us, we offer cultural events and entertainment according to your taste, since there is a natural link between our events and our everyday life.

If you decide to take a walk, our streams, paths, islands, lakes, woods and lawns guarantee beautiful views over 60,000 square metres of diversity.

EATS AND DRINKS We say, ‘If we eat well, it means that we have eaten a delicious dish of meat’. Salajnica sa čvarcima, made of the finest meat, and then a tasty snack of home produced ham and horseradish are welltried recipes for a gastronomic treat on the Salaj family estate.

After a delicious bite to eat, a good drink is always welcome. Congratulations to all wine-making wizards, but our glasses would be empty if it were not for the Salajs’ wine.

Mulled wine, both red and white, are an essential part of Advent. If you want to warm yourself, choose a hot cup of tea, specially brewed from seven types of tea whose taste and smell would thrill the most demanding of guests.

REVIEW The Salaj Family began to decorate their garden with Christmas lights 13 years ago. They perform their business activities as a registered cooperative called Christmas Fairy Tale. There are 10 members of the cooperative involved in its work. Over the years, with great effort and enthusiasm, it has become the most important event of the inland part of the Republic of Croatia. Many of the world’s media have recognized it as a unique event, and filmed numerous clips and written articles to the effect that the event has become important for the tourism development and promotion of the Republic of Croatia. Government Institutions, the Ministry of Tourism, the Ministry of Business and Trade, the Croatian National Tourist Board, the Tourist Board of Bjelovar-Bilogora County, and local communities have also recognized the importance and role of the project and, in line with the development plans, they support and fund the organization activities of every Christmas Fairy Tale of the Salaj family.

Jedina tačna definicija savršenog životnog prostora je ona u kojoj riječ savršenstvo podrazumijeva da se u tom prostoru osjećamo dobro, a taj osjećaj je nešto čemu svi težimo. No, svi smo mi ponekad zbunjeni, kako svojim željama, tako i nemogućnošću da ih realiziramo, iako nam se čini da nam tog trenutka savršeno „ide“. Finalni proizvod naših koraka često bude loš, bez obzira na dobru namjeru.

Slična je stvar sa stvaranjem idealnog doma ili radnog prostora. Bez obzira koliko vam se savršen činio, recimo stan vaših prijatelja ili ured poslovnih partnera, to nije prostor u kojem možete biti u potpunosti svoji.

Sve je tu, sve je savršeno, ali nešto nedostaje ili je pak nešto višak.

Kako biste zaista znali kako će izgledati vaš dom na kraju vaše potrage za savršenom sofom, savršenom stolicom, savršenim ormarima, neophodno je projektom precizirati i uz pomoć modela istestirati sve ideje. Projektiranje enterijera je magična kompozicija umjetnosti, vještine i znanja stečenog kroz obrazovanje i iskustvo. Ono određuje funkcionalnost i estetiku prostora i to kako će prostor izgledati nakon izvođenja svih radova. Stoga je neophodno da arhitekta u projektu predvidi sve detalje, vodeći računa o potrebama i željama klijenata i korisnika prostora, kako bi se dobilo najbolje moguće rješenje.

Kako biste realizirali najkompleksnije, ali i najjednostavnije ideje vezane za projektiranje i opremanje enterijera, posjetite Dizajn studio i Fabriku namještaja Inside

by Ećo. Filozofija poslovanja ove kompanije zasniva se na Custom made pristupu, gdje se cjelokupan asortiman radi po zahtjevima i željama klijenata, profiliranih ljudi, koji prepoznaju i znaju cijeniti dizajn i kvalitet i upravo zato klijenti određuju kvalitet ponude i usluge koju kompanija pruža.

The only correct definition of a perfect life space is the one where the word perfection means we can feel good in that space, which is the feeling we aspire to. But, we are sometimes confused with our desires and it is not always possible to achieve them even though we are almost certain in that moment we can do it.

The final product of our steps is often bad despite the good intention.

Inside Dizajn studio čini tim iskusnih arhitekata-enterijerista i dizajnera. Njihov zadatak je da, uz pomoć menadžmenta i inžinjera, uspostave politiku dizajna kao temelj za daljnji razvoj. Studio se bavi izradom idejnih rješenja, 3D modela i vizualizacijom projektiranih rješenja enterijera.

Creating an ideal home or work space is a similar thing. Your friend’s house or your business partner’s office can seem perfect, but that is not the place you can be entirely yourself. Everything is there, everything is perfect but something is missing.

Or maybe something does not fit in that space.

It is necessary to make a project and test all of your ideas so you can know immediately how your home will look like when you finish the search for the best sofa, chair or cupboard. Interior projects are magical compositions of art, skill and knowledge which are achieved through education and experience.

These components define functionality and esthetics and the way your home would look like after all the work is done. So, it is crucial for our architects to foresee all the details, taking care of the needs and desires of the clients who would use the space. Only then we can get the best possible solutions.

MALI SAVJETI ZA SVEČANO POSTAVLJANJE STOLA

CVIJEĆE, SVIJEĆE I BLISTAVI ESCAJG

Fotografije/Photos: Ema de Ir

AKO IMATE SREĆU DA U STANU ILI KUĆI IMATE OTVORENO OGNJIŠTE (KAMIN), STO SE FANTASTIČNO MOŽE POSTAVITI I SA VINTAGE STOLNJACIMA SA KOCKASTIM UZORKOM U stalnoj žurbi da u životu stignemo uraditi sve što mislimo da treba, na neke stvari koje bi nam trebale postati normalne, najčešće zaboravljamo ili prosto odmahnemo rukom i kažemo: Ma, nema veze, nije to tako važno. A važno je.

Svi znamo da ručati moramo. Obroci su nam se sveli na brzu hranu koju pojedemo dok smo na poslu, a kada smo kući serviramo najjednostavnije što se može, kako ne bismo gubili vrijeme ni na pripremu stola ni na raspremanje nakon obroka.

Možda su baš zato praznici lijepe prilike da tokom obroka potpuno uživamo. I da je sve servirano kako treba i da je ukusno i da lijepo izgleda. A posao raspremanja stola je mali u odnosu na užitak koji će na pružiti svečana trpeza.

Za početak, bez obzira da li svečani ručak ili večeru spremate samo za sebe ili pak za veću grupu ljudi, prvo pravilo je da sve mora biti savršeno čisto i blistavo. Ništa gore od situacije kada gosti pregledaju pribor za jelo, pa potajno brišu nož od mrlje, pa bila ona samo od kamenca.

Potrošite nekoliko minuta na dodatno usijavanje pribora mješavinom 116

MAŠTA MOŽE SVAŠTA

sirćeta i vode. Zapamtite, sve mora da blista.

Za lijepo postavljen sto bitan je kvalitetan stolnjak. Za svečane prilike, birajte bijeli ili bež, a ako volite malo ekstravagantniji ugođaj, sjajno će izgledati tamnoplavi ili bordo stolnjaci na kojima će se odlično isticati blistavo svijetlo posuđe.

Ako imate sreću da u stanu ili kući imate otvoreno ognjište (kamin), sto se fantastično može postaviti i sa vintage stolnjacima sa kockastim uzorkom. Uz prigušeno svjetlo ili lampu čija je svjetlost ublažena gustim abažurom, imat ćete filmsku atmosferu.

Kada birate posuđe za serviranje, ni slučajno ne stavljajte rasparene komade. Pred svakim gostom mora biti istovjetna postavka. Nemojte da vam na pamet padne da uz posuđe postavite pribor za jelo sa drvenim ili plastičnim drškama. U obzir, osim srebrenog ako ga imate, dolazi samo čisti rostfrei.

Važna je još jedna stvar. Šta kod da izaberete, boje i stil se moraju uklapati. Ne igrajte se sa previše boja, ako niste savršeno sigurni da ćete ih uklopiti na pravi način. Bolje manje boja, čak i samo jedna, tako zasigurno nećete pogriješiti.

Umjesto klasičnih stolnjaka, može-

Salvete neka budu platnene.

U izuzetnim situacijama, ako dočekujete bliske ljude, možete staviti i papirne, ali nemojte one najjeftinije kakve viđamo u lošim restoranima. Kupite deblje, u boji stolnjaka ili u nekoj jakoj kontrastnoj boji, a možete u njih, ukoliko ste vješti, dekorativno upakirati escajg. te koristiti i podmetače, najbolje od neke grube tkanine. Ni slučajno ne stavljajte plastične ili papirne. Papirnim ili plastičnim podmetačima i stolnjacima gostima šaljete poruku da se plašite da će vam ih isprljati.

Broj tanjira ovisi o tome šta ste spremili. Obavezno postavite minimalno dvije čaše, po mogućnosti obje sa postoljem, jednu za piće, a drugu za vodu.

Sto možete dodatno dekorisati borovim granama položenim na sredini stola, a ako koristite cvijeće u vaznama, nemojte da budu previsoke, kako bi svaki gost mogao nesmetano komunicirati sa osobom koja sjedi na suprotnoj strani stola.

Svijećnjaci također neka budu niski, a ako vam je baš stalo da imate visoki višekraki svijećnjak na stolu za vrijeme jela, pozicionirajte ga tako da nikome ne bi smetao.

I šta reći na kraju osim – uživajte u svakom zalogaju i svakom trenutku.

IMAGINATION CAN DO ANYTHING Let napkins be canvas. Only in exceptional situations, if you welcome close people, you can use paper napkins but don’t put the cheapest ones we see in bad restaurants.

Buy thicker which match the colour of tablecloth or in an intensive, contrastive colour or you can, if you are skilled, pack them decoratively with silverware.

SMALL TIPS ON ELEGANT TABLE SETTING

FLOWERS, CANDLES AND GLITTERING SILVERWARE IF YOU ARE LUCKY TO HAVE AN OPEN HEARTH (FIREPLACE), THE TABLE CAN BE FANTASTICALLY SET EVEN WITH VINTAGE TABLECLOTH IN PLAID PATTERN Always in a hurry to manage everything we think is necessary to be done, some things that should become regular, we forget quite often or we simply shake our head and say: Never mind, it is not so important.

Nevertheless, it is essential.

We are all aware that we have to eat. Meals have come down to fast food which we eat at work and when we are at home, we serve as simple as possible so as not to waste our time on setting table or cleaning the table after a meal.

This might be the reason why holidays are nice opportunities to absolutely enjoy during a meal.

And that all is served suitably, that it is delicious and that it looks fine. And, cleaning the table is very small compared with the joy that an elegant table will give you.

For the start, no matter whether it is a festive lunch or dinner you prepare only for yourself or for a larger group of people, the first rule is that everything has to be perfectly clear and polished. Nothing worse than a situation when the guests inspect cutlery, then secretly wipe stains on a knife, let it be solely from scale.

Spend few minutes on additional polishing of cutlery with mixture of vinegar and water.

For a nice table setting, a tablecloth of quality is essential. For festive occasions, pick white or beige and if you like more extravagant atmosphere, dark blue or burgundy colour will do great on which bright, sparkling dishes will remarkably stand out. If you are lucky to have an open hearth (fireplace), the table can be fantastically set even with vintage, checked tablecloth.

Soft lighting or a lamp whose glare is softened with rich lampshade, you will have movie scenery.

When you chose serving dishes, you mustn’t put unpaired pieces.

Identical items have to be placed for each guest. Don’t you dare even thinking to set utensils with wooden or plastic holders alongside dishes.

Besides silver, if you have it, only pure rostfrei is acceptable.

One more thing is important. Whatever you chose, colours and style have to match. Don’t play too much with colours unless you are absolutely sure you will match them in the right way. Better less colours, even only one, and you will certainly not make a mistake.

Instead of classic tablecloth, you can use pads, it would be best if they are made from more coarse cloth. Don’t you even think to place plastic or paper ones. With plastic or paper pads, you send a message to your guests that you are afraid that they will soil it.

You can further decorate table with pine branches set in the middle and if you use flowers in vases, don’t chose ones that are too high so that each guest can communicate with a person sitting opposite freely.

Candle holder should be low likewise and if you really want high, candelabra candle holder on table during a meal, position it so that it disturbs no one.

And what else to say in the end than- enjoy every bite in every moment.

PREVENT AND CURE

Learn the difference between flu and cold

SPRIJEČITI I LIJEČITI

Razlikujte gripu i prehladu

FLU TREATMENT INCLUDES BED REST, PLENTY OF FLUIDS, TAKING MEDICINES TO LOWER TEMPERATURE AND COUGH SUPPRESSANTS.

LIJEČENJE GRIPE UKLJUČUJE MIROVANJE, NADOKNADU TEČNOSTI, TE UZIMANJE LIJEKOVA ZA SNIŽAVANJE TEMPERATURE I SMIRIVANJE KAŠLJA

Gripa i prehlada nisu ista bolest i iako većina ljudi to zna, ne znaju ih razlikovati. Donosimo kratak pregled najvažnijih razlika između simptoma gripe od simptoma prehlade te savjete kako si pomoći kada obolite od gripe.

Gripa je teška, a katkad i pogibeljna bolest zbog brojnih komplikacija. One mogu biti uzrokovane virusom influence ili sekundarnim bakterijskim infekcijama, odnosno zajedničkim djelovanjem virusa i bakterija. Komplikacije su najčešće u samom disajnom sistemu (upale uha i sinusa te pneumonije), ali mogu biti zahvaćeni i drugi organski sistemi.

curenje iz nosa. Komplikacije kod prehlade su vrlo rijetke.

er organ systems can be affected as well.

Gripa, dakle, dolazi naglo. Prati je visoka temperatura, jaka glavobolja i istaknuta bol u mišićima. Prisutan je suh, vrlo neugodan kašalj i osjećaj velikog umora i iscrpljenosti.

Komplikacije su vrlo česte.

Pneumonia is the most severe complication of influenza and a cause for many deadly outcomes from this disease. Antiviral medicines, if taken within 48 hours when the symptoms occurred, shorten duration of the disease and lower the severity of possible complications.

Liječenje gripe uključuje mirovanje, nadoknadu tečnosti, te uzimanje lijekova za snižavanje temperature i smirivanje kašlja. Budući da je gripa uzrokovana virusima, antibiotici nisu efikasni pa se njima mogu liječiti samo bakterijske komplikacije, odnosno upala uha, upala sinusa i pneumonija.

Upala pluća je najteža komplikacija influence i odgovorna je za većinu smrtnih slučajeva od ove bolesti.

Antivirusni lijekovi, ako se uzmu u prvih 48 sati nakon početka bolesti, bitno skraćuju trajanje bolesti i ublažavaju težinu simptoma, a smanjuju broj i težinu komplikacija.

Flu and cough are not the same, although most people are aware of that, they don’t know the difference. We give you a short overview of the most important differences between flu and cold symptoms and advice how to help yourself when you get a cold.

Kada se radi o običnoj prehladi, treba znati da se ona, za razliku od gripe koja dolazi naglo, pojavljuje postepeno. Temperatura je umjerena ili tek blago povišena, bolovi u mišićima ili glavobolja su vrlo rijetki, a nema ni osjećaja umora ili iscrpljenosti. Kašlja nema nikako li je vrlo blag, ali je prisutno jako

Flu is tough, sometimes even fatal due to numerous complications. It can be caused by a virus or other secondary, bacterial infection which is a joint invasion of a virus and bacteria. Very often, complications occur in the respiratory system itself (ear infection, sinus infection and pneumonia) but oth-

120

When it comes to basic cold, it is good to know that, unlike flu which develops rapidly, it develops gradually. Temperature is medium or slightly high, muscle ache or headache is very rare and there is no feeling of fatigue of exhaustion.

No cough or it is rather mild but nose is runny constantly. Cold complications are very rare.

So, flu comes suddenly. It is followed with high temperature, strong headache and distinctive muscle ache. Dry, very unpleasant cough, fatigue and exhaustion are present.

Complications are quite frequent.

Flu treatment includes bed rest, plenty of fluids, taking medicines to lower temperature and cough suppressants. Since flu is caused by viruses, antibiotics are ineffective and they can cure only bacterial complications- ear infection, sinus infection and pneumonia.

ZA ZDRAVLJE I VITKU LINIJU

Njegovo veličanstvo - ZELENI ČAJ Naučno je dolazano da zeleni čaj, osim što čisti organizam, može pomoći i u mršavljenju, ali nije nebitno kako ga i u kojem obliku konzumirati.

Da bi bio efikasan u topljenju masnih naslaga ili zadržavanja vitke linije, zeleni čaj ne bi smio sadržavati šećer. Sve popularniji su zeleni čajevi s dodatkom voćnih ili drugih okusa, ali nutricionisti smatraju kako prednosti zelenog čaja ne bismo trebali umanjivati dodavanjem različitih okusa. Ako dodana aroma uključuje šećer, onda čaj može sadržavati više kalorija, pa neće biti djelotvoran u topljenju masnoća. U zeleni čaj se ne dodaju ni šećer ni umjetni zaslađivači .

Zeleni čaj najsnažnije djeluje kada se posluži vruć. Kada ga pripremate, nemojte pustiti da voda proključa. Prije ključanja, kada se pojave prvi mali mjehurići, prelijte vodu preko čaja. Pustite da odstoji dvije do četiri minute da se oslobode svi sastojci koji zeleni čaj čine tako posebnim i zdravim.

FOR HEALTH AND SLIM BODY IMAGE

His Majesty - GREEN TEA It has been scientifically proven that green tea, besides organism detoxifications, can help in losing weight too but it is not irrelevant how and in what form we consume it.

In order to be effective in fat burning or keeping the body slim, it shouldn’t contain sugar. Increasingly popular are green teas with additional fruit or some other flavors, but nutritionists claim that the advantages of green tea should not be decreased adding various flavors. If an additional flavour includes sugar, then tea can contain more calories so it won’t be effectual in fat burning. Neither sugar nor artificial sweeteners are added in green tea.

Green tea is most effective when served hot. When you prepare it, don’t let water boil. Before boiling, when first bubbles appear, pour water over the tea. Let it rest for two or four minutes so as to release all ingredients that make green tea so special and healthy.

INTERVJU / INTERVIEW

AKO VOLITE BANJALUČKE ĆEVAPE Gotovo da ne postoji osoba koja je došla u Banju Luku, a da nije probala čuvene ćevape Kod Muje.

Iako će većina Banjalučana reći da su najbolji Mujini ćevapi, postoje i oni koji na to odmahuju glavom i govore da su najbolji oni Kod Mahe. Bilo da odete Kod Muje ili Kod Mahe nećete pogriješiti.

Vrijedi probati.

GDJE I ŠTA POJESTI U GRADU NA VRBASU

Na ćevape kod Muje, na pizzu kod Brke BANJA LUKA IMA BOGATU I ŠAROLIKU GASTRO PONUDU, TAKO DA JE GOTOVO NEMOGUĆE PREDSTAVITI SVE RESTORANE KOJE BISTE TREBALI POSJETITI. ZA POČETAK, PREPORUČUJEMO NEKOLIKO UGOSTITELJSKIH OBJEKATA U KOJE ĆETE SE SIGURNO VRAĆATI SVAKI PUT KADA BUDETE BORAVILI U GRADU NA VRBASU.

GDJE NA DORUČAK

By Dasha Gajić

Lounge bar IN - smješten u strogom centru grada, sa prekrasnim ambijentom, divnom baštom, uz ljubazno osoblje i ukusnu hranu čini pravi izbor za početak dana.

Najbolje tortilje u gradu. U blizini se nalazi luksuzni i novootvoreni restoran DOM koji takođe zaslužuje da ga posjetite.

Na 14. spratu Poslovnog centra Integra nalazi se elegantan i luksuzan Restoran i Lounge bar Integra.

Enterijer opremljen namještajem u stilu bidermajera i teresa koja pruža veličanstven pogled na grad su neki od brojnih razloga zašto da posjetite ovaj restoran. Idealno za prvu jutarnju kafu i doručak.

122

ZA LJUBITELJE PIZZE Picerija kod Brke je jedna od novijih u gradu na Vrbasu koja je veoma brzo zadobila naklonost i povjerenje gostiju. Iz bogate ponude izdvaja se pizza osebujnog naziva ‘’Debeli Brko’’. Jedna od najstarijih i najpopularnijih banjalučkih pizzeria je Sanremo. Lokacija u centru grada i poseban enterijer, pored ukusne hrane, privlače goste već godinama.

Intermezzo – mjesto gdje možete pojesti ukusnu pizzu. Dodatni je plus što u ponudi ovog lokala ima i divni sok od lavande koji apsolutno morate probati.

Ako ste vikendom u ovom gradu, imate slobodnog vremena i nije vam problem voziti 30-ak minuta od centra, posjetite Bife Kola u selu Kola. Svaki pređeni kilometar i utrošeno vrijeme ćete zaboraviti čim okusite prvi zalogaj pizze koja je veću šla u legendu.

ZA ONE KOJI NE MOGU ODOLJETI JAGNJETINI Neka vaš prvi izbor bude restoran Kazamat, koji je jedan od najstarijih restorana u Banjoj Luci.

Smješten je u zidinama tvrđave Kastel na obali Vrbasa. Pored odlične lokacije i ljetne bašte sa pogledom na rijeku, ovaj restoran nudi najbolju jagnjetinu ispod sača.

Tako bar tvrde brojni Banjalučani.

Za mediteransku jagnjetinu sa inćunima, ruzmarinom, lavandom, sušenim paradajzom I maslinama posjetite restoran Mala Stanica.

Manje “fancy” izbor je Orhideja.

Ne očekujte poseban ugođaj ili interijer, ali očekujte vrhunsku jagnjetinu.

AKO STE ZA PASTU Fenomenalan izbor paste nudi već pomenuti restoran Mala Stanica.

Ako ste za klasičnu varijantu probajte pastu sa gljivama, tikvicama i slaninom, ako biste nešto drugačije probajte pastu sa lisičarkama, ćuretinom, kajmakom i tostiranim orahom. Koju god pastu da odaberete nećete pogriješiti. Ako ste u žurbi, nemate vremena da sjedite u restoranu, a želite dobru pastu za ponijeti, svratite u Agi Pasta Away.

Brzo, ukusno, povoljno i obilno.

ZA LJUBITELJE KOLAČA Ne možete reći da ste bili u Banjoj Luci, ako niste probali čokoladni soufflé u Maloj Stanici. Definitivno najbolji soufflé u gradu i to već godinama. Čarobno i čokoladno.

Restoran DOM ima savršen crème brûlée, koji se izdvaja u bogatoj i maštovitoj ponudi delicija koju nudi ovaj restoran. Nemojte propustiti ni čokoladnu tortu.

Slastičarna Cookie bar - Snickers pita? Torta od mrkve? Orijent torta? Zvuči primamljivo, zar ne? Ako se ne možete odlučiti koji kolač odabrati, preporučujemo Snickers pitu sa puno sirupa od karamela.

the walls of the Fortress Castel on the banks of the River Vrbas. Besides excellent location and summer garden with the view on the river, this restaurant offers best lamb under ashes. At least, that’s what numerous Banjalucans say. For Mediterranean lamb with anchovies, rosemary, lavender, dried tomato and olives, visit restaurant Mala Stanica. Less “fancy” choice is Orhideja.

Don’t expect special atmosphere or interior but surely you can expect the finest quality lamb.

IF YOU LIKE PASTA WHERE AND WHAT TO EAT

Have cevapi At Mujo, pizza At Brko BEST LAMB UNDER THE ASHES IS TRADITIONALLY SERVED IN THE KAZAMAT RESTAURANT WITHIN THE WALLS OF CASTEL FORTRESS Banja Luka has wide and diverse gastronomic offers so it is almost impossible to write about all restaurants that you should visit. For the start, we recommend you a few restaurants where you will surely come back again every time you stay in the city on the River Vrbas

WHERE TO GO FOR BREAKFAST Lounge bar IN- located in the city centre, with beautiful environment, marvellous garden, very polite stuff and delicious food makes it the right choice to start your day.

Best tortillas in the city. Luxurious and new restaurant DOM is nearby and it definitely deserves to be visited. On the 14th floor of the Business space Integra, is elegant and exclusive Restaurant and Lounge bar Integra. The interior, equipped with furniture in style of biedermeier and terraces which gives you magnificent view at the city, is just one of numerous reasons to visit this restaurant. It is perfect for fist morning coffee and breakfast.

IF YOU LIKE BANJA LUKA’S CEVAPI There isn’t a person who came to Banja Luka and hasn’t tasted famous cevapi At Mujo. Although most Banjalucans will say that Mujo’s cevaps are the best, others will nod and say that the best are At Maho. Whether you go At Mujo or At Maho, you will not make a mistake. It is worth trying.

FOR PIZZA FANS Pizzeria At Brko is one of newer ones in the city on the River Vrbas which rather fast got affection and trust of the guests. From the rich offer excels pizza with unusual name “Fat Brko”. One of the oldest and most popular pizzerias in Banja Luka is Sanremo. Location in the city centre and special interior design, besides tasty food, has attracted guest for years. Intermezzo – a place where you can eat delicious pizza.

An additional advantage of this place is that they have an amazing lavender juice in their offer which you absolutely have to try.

If you come to the city during weekend, you have free time and 30-minute drive from the centre is not a problem for you, visit Cafe Kola in the village Kola. You will forget every kilometre and spent time after a first pizza bite which had already become legendary.

Excellent choice of pasta offers before mentioned restaurant Mala Stanica. If you want classical choice, try pasta with mushrooms, zucchini and bacon; if you want something different, try pasta with chanterelle mushrooms, turkey, cream and toasted walnut. Whichever pasta you choose, you won’t make a mistake.

If you are in a hurry, you don’t have time to sit in a restaurant and you want good, take-away pasta, visit Agi Pasta Away. Fast, delicious, good price and ample.

FOR CAKE FANS You cannot say you have been in Banja Luka unless you tried chocolate soufflé at Mala Stanica .

Without doubt, it has been the best soufflé in the city for years. Magical and chocolate. Restaurant DOM has perfect crème brûlée which stands out in rich and imaginative specialty’ offer of this restaurant.

Don’t miss chocolate cake either.

Pastry shop Cookie bar - Snickers pie? Carrot cake? Orient cake?

Sounds tempting, doesn’t’ it? If you cannot decide which cake to choose, we recommend Snickers pie with loads of caramel sauce.

FOR THOSE WHO CANNOT RESIST LAMB Let your first choice be restaurant Kazamat which is one of the oldest in Banja Luka. It is located inside 123

Svaki poklon od srca sjaji kao dijamant Studentima kupite novčanike.

I neka budu crveni. Stručnjaci kažu da crveni novčanici donose sreću i privlače novac Mjeseci pred nama mjeseci su darivanja. Stižu nam praznici. Nova godina, dva Božića, Valentinovo...

Sve prekrasne prilike da obradujemo ljude koje volimo. Obradujte ih, ali ne zaboravite sebe jer svi su prolaznici u našim životima, vi ste najvažnija osoba u svome životu.

126

Najlakše je darivati ljude koje savršeno poznajemo, znamo šta vole, šta imaju, šta ne žele, šta trebaju. Idealno bi bilo da poklon ne bude tek nečija puka potreba, već nešto što će se koristiti i primatelja dara uvijek podsjećati na važnu stvar – koliko ste vi posebna osoba.

Da vas ne bi stigla pretpraznična groznica i nervoza, uzrokovana nedostatkom vremena jer ste sve ostavili za zadnji čas, sa kupovinama krenite odmah.

Dijamanti su ženini najbolji prijatelji, rekla je najslavnija plavuša svih vremena. Mi bismo ženinim, a i muškarčevim prijateljima, dodali i parfeme. Parfemi i nakit poklanjaju se osobama s kojima ste bliski.

Modnim ovisnicima i trendseterima poklonite modne detalje ili gadgete. Fancy sunčane naočale, mobiteli, iPedi, trendi torbe, ešarpe, kravate, kamere, pravi su poklon za takve ljude.

Svi među prijateljima imamo osobu koja predano voli svoj dom i uživa da ga dotjeruje. Takvima poklonite posteljinu, od pruća pletenu korpu za odlaganje sitnica, mekani peškir jarkih boja, posudu za vino, čaše, zdjelu za voće...

Mogućnosti su brojne.

Onima koji ljubomorno vode računa o svojom kosi, koži ili noktima, poklonite kreme za lice ili ruke, maske za kosu.

Studentima kupite novčanike. I neka budu crveni. Stručnjaci kažu da crveni novčanici donose sreću i privlače novac.

Starijim osobama poklonite meke svilene ili pletene šalove, tople rukavice, pamučne pidžame.

Dobar izbor je i pulover sa zimskim detaljima.

I da, obradujte sebe. Ne smijete to zaboraviti. Samo sretni ljudi šire sreću svuda oko sebe.

PREDSTAVLJAMO / INTRODUCING

prosto nije dovoljno, pa sam u Zagrebu 2012. godine u Latorteriji prošao vrlo ozbiljnu slastičarsku obuku.

Danas ima posla, narodski rečeno, preko glave. Želje mladenaca su uvijek vrlo zahtjevne, ali uspijeva ih realizirati.

PRIČA O ČAROBNIM SVADBENIM TORTAMA

ZENIČKA SLATKA ČAROLIJA Počeo je sa pravljenjem dječijih torti, ukrašenih likovima iz crtića. Prvu je napravio za rođendan svoje kćerke Sajre, dopala se gostima i krenule su preporuke Benjamin Bećiragić zaposlen je u jednom zeničkom restoranu. Nije kuhar. Zapravo, sa kuhinjom, bar kada je na poslu, nema nikakvog dodira.

No, kada se vrati kući, kuhinja je njegovo carstvo u kojem stvara fantastične kreacije od tijesta, čokolade, šećera, voća. Da, on pravi torte. Zapravo, bilo bi malo reći da se radi samo o tortama. Prije bismo rekli da su to prava mala umjetnička djela. Ne postoji oblik koji možete poželjeti, a da ga njegove čarobne ruke neće napraviti.

Iza njega je na stotine napravljenih torti i već sada u Zenici i okolnim 128

gradovima, od Travnika, preko Viteza do Visokog, a odnedavno i Sarajeva i Višegrada, važi pravilo da se ozbiljno vjenčanje ne sprema bez Benjaminove torte.

Počeo je sa pravljenjem dječijih torti, ukrašenih likovima iz crtića.

Prvu je napravio za rođendan svoje kćerke Sajre, dopala se gostima i krenule su preporuke.

Ideja da se odmakne od dječijih torti i pođe se ozbiljno baviti ovim poslom došla je, kao i sve velike ideje, sasvim slučajno. Dobio je ponudu da, kada već pravi torte, istina male, pokuša napraviti i veliku svadbenu jer njegove su torte, osim lijepe, bile i iznimno ukusne.

- Svadba je bila u restoranu u kojem radim i torta je dobila, hajde da kažemo, prolaznu ocjenu, priča Benjamin za magazin Furaj.ba. Shvatio sam da znam o tome dosta, ali da to

- Najzahtjevnija torta koju sam napravio izgledala je s jedne strane kao odijelo mladoženje, a sa druge kao mladenkina vjenčanica. Bila je savršena, kaže, ne bez ponosa.

Nekako u tom periodu, bilo je to prije otprilike dvije godine, primijetio je da se, osim samoj torti, vrlo malo značaja pridaje detaljima koji jedan tako bitan čin, kao što je vjenčanje, čine velikim. Danas, oni koji odluče da od njega naruče svadbenu ili rođendansku tortu, dobijaju kompletnu uslugu. Kupio je originalna kolica na kojima se torta „doveze“ pred mladence i goste, reže se posebnim svadbenim noževima, a sve prati prikladna dokoracija i mini vatromet.

Od konkurencije ga, kaže, izdvaja posebna receptura po kojoj pravi torte. Savršenog izgleda izvana i nenadmašnog ukusa unutra, čine dobitnu kombinaciju.

THE STORY ABOUT MAGICAL WEDDING CAKES

I knew a lot about that but is was not sufficient so I went on a very serious, confectionery training in Zagreb at Latorterija in 2012.

THE

Today, I’m busy over head, as people would say. Newlyweds’ wishes are always demanding but he manages to realize them.

SWEET

MAGIC OF ZENICA

- The most demanding cake he has ever made looked on one side as a groom’s suit and on the other as a bride’s wedding dress. It was perfect, he says proudly.

He started off making children’s cakes, decorated with cartoon characters. The first he made for his daughter Sajra’s birthday, the guests liked it and recommendations began Benjamin Beciragic works at a restaurant in Zenica. He didn’t cook. Actually, when he works, he doesn’t have any touch at all with a kitchen.

But, when he comes back home, the kitchen is his empire where he makes incredible creations with pastry, chocolate, sugar, fruit.

Yes, he makes cakes. Telling the truth, it wouldn’t be enough to say that he only makes cakes. We would rather say that those are real, small artistic pieces. There is no shape you imagine that his magical hands cannot make.

The idea to move away from children’s cakes and to start doing this business professionally came, as every other great idea, accidentally. He got an offer, since he has already made cakes even though they were small, to try and make a big wedding cake because his cakes were not only beautiful but also very delicious.

Somehow at that period, it was approximately two year ago, I noticed that, besides the cake itself, details were given small attention and they are very important parts which make the wedding splendid. Today, those who decide to order a wedding or a birthday cake from him, get complete service. He bought the original wheels to “carry” the cake in front of newlyweds and guests; it is cut with special wedding knives and all of that with suitable decoration and small firework.

He says that the special recipes for making cakes distinguish him from competitors. Perfect outside and unsurpassed taste inside make a winning combination.

- The wedding was at the restaurant where I work and let’s say, the cake got a passing grade, says Benjamin for the magazine Furaj.ba. I realized

He has made hundreds of cakes and it is widely accepted rule, in Zenica and nearby cities, from Vitez to Visiko, and recently in Sarajevo and Visegrad, that a serious wedding is not organized without Benjamin’s cake.

He started off making children’s cakes, decorated with cartoon characters. The first he made for his daughter Sajra’s birthday, the guests liked it and recommendations began.
