Dragi putnici,
Dear passengers,
INSPIRISANI STAROM KINESKOM PO- SLOVICOM KOJA KAŽE DA PUT OD HILJA- DU MILJA POČINJE JEDNIM KORAKOM , taj prvi korak napravili smo prošlog meseca kada je naš avion „erbas A330-200“ krenuo na put od Be- ograda do Tjenđina od čak 4.700 milja, to jest vi- še od 7.500 kilometara. Za uspostavljanje direktnih letova do Ki- ne, posle 22 godine pauze, posebnu zahvalnost dugujemo Vladi Republike Srbije, kineskoj dr- žavi i njenim vazduhoplovnim vlastima, kao i velikom broju naših zaposlenih, koji su da- li svoj maksimum da bi redovni saobraćaj iz- među Beograda i Tjenđina postao stvarnost. Bila je to kruna čitavog niza važnih projeka- ta koje smo realizovali u prethodnoj godini. Iako ćemo operativne rezultate kompa- nije imati tek krajem ovog meseca, već sada znamo da smo u 2022. godini prevezli mili- on putnika više u odnosu na 2021. godinu. Mrežu smo proširili sa 14 novih destinacija na dva kontinenta, a flotu osnažili sa čak se- dam novih aviona. U novu godinu ušli smo sa dodatnom mo- tivacijom i željom da se dalje razvijamo i put- nicima ponudimo nove mogućnosti za puto- vanja. Kao što smo nedavno najavili, tokom letnje sezone pokrenućemo direktne letove do Čikaga, do četiri nova grada u Italiji i tri popularna grčka ostrva. Istovremeno, našu mrežu proširićemo sa još deset destinacija u Evropi i Aziji. Pozivamo vas da redovno pratite naš sajt i društvene mreže, putem kojih možete da sa- znate najnovije informacije o planovima kom- panije. Uvek nas obraduju i slike sa letova koje nam šaljete, zato što su to trenuci kada za- jedno stvaramo nove uspomene. Januar je mesec za pravljenje planova za celu godinu, a putovanja se kotiraju visoko na lestvici prioriteta. Otkrivanjem novih magič- nih mesta, upoznavanjem različitih kultura i kuhinja, kao i sklapanjem novih prijateljstava, stičemo neprocenjiva iskustva za ceo život. Svet je velik, ali kada vi imate želju i vo- lju, a mi dobru povezanost, ništa nije daleko. Uživajte u letu i srećan put, JIRŽI MAREK, GENERALNI DIREKTOR ER SRBIJE
INSPIRED BY THE SAYING FROM AN OLD CHINESE PROVERB THAT A JOURNEY OF A THOUSAND MILES BEGINS WITH A SINGLE STEP , we took that first step last month, when our Airbus A330-200 embarked on a journey of as many as 4,700 miles, or over 7,500 kilometres, from Belgrade to Tianjin. When it comes to establishing direct flights to China after a 22-year break, we are particularly grateful to the Government of the Republic of Serbia, the Chinese state and its aviation authorities, as well as a large number of our employees, who exerted maximum effort to ensure a regular service between Belgrade and Tianjin became a reality. It was the crowning moment in a series of important projects that we carried out over the last year. Even though the company’s operating results will not be available before the end of this month, we already know that we have carried a million more passengers in 2022 than we did in 2021. We have expanded our network with 14 new destinations on two continents, and strengthened our fleet with as many as seven new aircraft. We entered the new year with additional motivation and drive to develop further, and to offer our passengers new travel options. During the 2023 summer season, as we announced recently, we will commence direct flights to Chicago, as well as four new cities in Italy and three popular Greek islands. At the same time, we will add ten more destinations in Europe and Asia to our network. We invite you to regularly follow our website and social media, where you can find the latest information regarding our company’s plans. We are also always happy to see the in-flight photos you send us, because those are the moments when we create new memories together. January is the month of making plans for the entire year ahead, and travel ranks high on the list of priorities. By discovering new magical places, learning about new cultures and cuisines, but also making new friends, we gain precious experiences that last a lifetime. The world is big, but when you have the desire and the will, and we have the good connectivity, nothing is far away. Enjoy your flight, and happy holidays, JIRI MAREK, CEO AIR SERBIA

U narednim danima putni- ke ćemo obradovati uvođenjem di- rektnih linija do nekih od omiljenih letnjih destinacija – izjavio je Boš- ko Rupić, direktor komercijale i strategije Er Srbije. širenjem mreže svojih destinacija u sledećoj letnjoj sezoni NOVE DESTINACIJE U NEMAČKOJ, FRANCUSKOJ I ŠVEDSKOJ Er Srbija u maju 2023. godine uvodi direktne letove do četiri nova grada i tako nastavlja sa KELN, HAMBURG, MARSELJ, GETEBORG
HAMBURG Hamburg je evropski centar nauke, istraživanja i obrazovanja i sedište najstarije nemačke berze i trgovačke banke na sve- tu. Pored bogatog arhitektonskog nasleđa, taj grad se mo- že pohvaliti izuzetnom muzejskom ponudom, od moderne umetnosti i nemačkog romantizma do etnologije i pomorske istorije. Muzej u obliku broda poznat kao „Beli labud južnog Atlantika“ dug je 159 metara i posetiocima pruža priliku da se upoznaju sa načinom života mornara. Jedini je grad u Ne- mačkoj koji ima peščanu plažu. HAMBURG Hamburg is a European hub of science, research and educa- tion, and the seat of Germany’s oldest stock exchange and the world’s oldest commercial bank. In addition to its rich ar- chitectural heritage, the city boasts an exceptional selection of museums – presenting everything from contemporary art and German romanticism to ethnology and naval history. A museum shaped like a ship, known as the “White Swan of the South Atlantic” is 159 metres long and offers its guests the opportunity to learn about the life of sailors. Ham- burg is the only city in Germany with a sand beach..
Do Hamburga će Er Srbija početi da leti od 15. maja svakog ponedeljka, srede i petka As of 15 th May, Air Serbia will operate flights to Hamburg every Monday, Wednesday and Friday

COLOGNE Cologne lies on the Rhine River and is rich in tour- ist attractions and cultural events. The main symbol of the city is Cologne Ca- thedral, which dates back to 1248 and has been in- cluded on the UNESCO World Heritage List thanks to its impressive Gothic architecture, exception- al stained-glass windows and other important art- works. Cologne’s most visited cultural institu- tion, attracting around 600,000 visitors annu- ally, is the Chocolate Mu- seum, while the Roma- no-Germanic Museum, Museum Ludwig and the Fragrance Museum are also major tourist attrac- tions. In addition to Bel- grade, you can also fly to Cologne from Niš Con- stantine the Great Airport.

Er Srbija će od 18. maja, svakog ponedeljka, četvrtka i nedelje, leteti do Geteborga Starting from 18 th May, Air Serbia will operate flights to Gothenburg every Monday, Thursday and Sunday
GETEBORG Jedan od najvažnijih gradova na privrednoj mapi sever- ne Evrope, koji je ujedno i najveća luka u Skandinaviji i bit- no putno čvorište između Stokholma, Osla i Kopenhage- na. Centar grada krase kanali inspirisani holandskim stilom gradnje, a uz njih se pružaju biciklističke staze. Glavne zna- menitosti su Gradska saborna crkva, Glavna železnička stanica, Geteborška opera, kao i gradski muzej, u kojem se mogu videti ostaci autentičnog vikinškog broda. GOTHENBURG One of the most important cities on the economic map of Europe, Gothenburg is also the biggest port in Scandinavia and an important travel hub be-
tween Stockholm, Oslo and Copenhagen. The city centre is enriched by canals in-
spired by the Dutch architectural style, with cycle lanes stretching alongside them. The main land- marks are Gothenburg Cathe- dral, Gothenburg Central Sta- tion, the Gothenburg opera house, as well as the City
Museum, where the re- mains of an authentic Vi- king ship are exhibited.

MARSELJ Drugi najveci grad u Francuskoj, zahvaljujuci 2.600 godi- na dugoj istoriji, ima bogato i raznoliko kulturno nasleđe. Od okruga Panije do malog netaknutog sela, od zgrade Mucem do Vieille Charité, od nezaobilaznog Notre-Da- me de la Garde do blistavog Cité le Corbusier. Ukoliko u jutarnjim satima prođete pored Stare luke, jednog od tu- rističkih simbola grada, sigruno ćete sresti glasne riba- re koji prodaju svež ulov. Upravo ovde počinje čuvena, ki- lometar duga „ulica konoplje“, Rue La Canbière, čiji izgled datira iz 19. veka, kada je Marselj bio jedan od najvecih centara trgovine konopljom na svetu.
Od 20. maja, svakog utorka i subote, možete leteti do Marselja Starting from 20 th May, you can fly to Marseille every Tuesday and Saturday
MARSEILLE France’s second largest city has a rich and diverse cul-
tural heritage, thanks to its 2,600-year history. From the district of Le Panier to the small, pristine village of Les Goudes; from the Mucem - Muse- um of Civilisations of Europe and the Mediterrane- an - to Les Vieille Charité; from the must-see No- tre-Dame de la Garde basilica to the dazzling Cité le Corbusier. If you pass by the Old Port, one of the city’s tourist symbols, in the mornings, you are sure to encounter loud fishermen selling their fresh catch. It is here that the famous, kilometre-long Hemp Street, Rue La Canbière, begins, the look of which dates back to the 19 th century, when Mar- seille was one of the world’s biggest hemp trad- ing centres.

ZAŠTO VOLITE AVIONE?
WHY DO YOU LIKE PLANES?
Volim da se izgubim u oblacima I love to lose myself in the clouds
Lena Bogdanović glumica / actress
I have loved planes since I first flew, as a child, to visit my grandpar- ents in Prague, and it has remained my favourite mode of transport to this day. In an incredibly short peri- od of time, at high speeds, you can reach your desired destination with- out traffic congestion. And while doing so you also have an incredi- ble opportunity to lose yourself in the clouds. You can sail, both lit- erally and symbolically, to anoth- er dimension and view yourself and the world from a different perspec- tive. Isn’t that absolutely fantastic? What don’t you board a plane without? My mobile phone is always be- side me, so that I can take photos, and I love shots from the window, with the magical clouds and land- scapes. And, most importantly, I call to tell my nearest and dearest that I've landed, which is a very im- portant custom in my family. I car- ry something to read, because I al- most never sleep on a plane, even at night. There are also headphones, for when I want to switch off and drift away to music. film, television and theatre actress.

WHO IS LENA? Lena Bogdanović is a Serbian
Avione volim od kada sam kao dete prvi put letela u posetu baki i deki u Prag, a do danas je to mo- je omiljeno prevozno sredstvo. Za neverovatno kratko vreme velikom brzinom stignete na željenu desti- naciju, bez saobraćajne gužve. Pri- tom imate neverovatnu priliku da se izgubite u oblacima. I doslovce, ali i simbolično, da otplovite u ne- ku drugu dimenziju ili pogledate sebe i svet iz druge perspektive. Nije li to apsolutno fantastično? Bez čega ne ulazite u avion? – Telefon je uvek uz mene ka- ko bih mogla da fotografišem, vo- lim kadrove sa prozora, oblaci i pej- zaži su magični. Najvažnije, javim
se najdražima da sam sletela, to je veoma važan običaj u mojoj poro- dici. Nešto za čitanje ponesem, jer gotovo nikada ne spavam u avio- nu, čak ni noću. Tu su i slušalice kada želim da se isključim i otplo- vim u muziku. filmska, televizijska i pozorišna glumica.

AKO POČNEMO DA NABRA- JAMO ŠTA JE SVE LIONEL MESI OSVOJIO i uradio u karijeri, vaš kapetan će već najaviti sletanje i nećete stići da pročitate do kraja. Zato je najbolje da počnemo baš od kraja – Mesi je prvak sveta sa Argentinom. Sigurni smo da ste gledali sada već istorijsko finale sa Francuskom u Kataru koje je odlučeno penalima. I verovatno ste navijali za Mesija. A ko nije? Argentina je gotovo dve dece- nije čekala na krunisanje slavne de- setke, koja se tako pridružila Dije- gu Armandu Maradoni u panteonu

„Video sam igrača koji će naslediti moje mesto u argentinskom fudbalu. Njegovo ime je Mesi“, Dijego Maradona o osamnaestogodišnjem Leu u februaru 2006.
“I’ve seen the player who will inherit my place in Argentinian football and his name is Messi” ~ Diego Maradona, speaking in February 2006 about a then 18-year-old Leo
fudbalskih bogova. Mesi je stavio krunu na glavu, krunu bez koje bi uvek bio drugi, uvek onaj posle Ma- radone... Sada je besmrtan. Međutim, neverovatno je da je igrač koji je u karijeri osvojio 41 klupsko i reprezentativno prizna- nje, kao i 31 individualnu nagradu, morao da se dokazuje iz dana u dan, iz utakmice u utakmicu... Argentin- ci su često znali da budu nemilosrd- ni prema Mesiju, koji je, razočaran, morao dva puta da se povuče iz na- cionalnog tima. Srećom, oba puta se predomislio i pomirio sa nacijom koja jede, pije i diše fudbal. Mesi je znao da je Katar njego- va poslednja prilika. Ima 35 godi- na, bezbroj mečeva i dubokih rana na nogama i počelo je da se pri- ča da više nije brz kao nekada, a Mesi bez brzine nije Mesi... Na sa- mom početku Mundijala doživeo je težak udarac – Argentina je iz- gubila od Saudijske Arabije sa 2:1. Šok i neverica. Da je mogao, sigur- no bi tada uhvatio prvi let za Bar- selonu. Ali nije, ostao je i na sebe primio udarce 50 miliona Argen- tinaca. Nije poklekao, a retki to mogu. Nejmar nije izdržao priti- sak sa Brazilom, Kristijano Ronal- do sa Portugalijom, Hari Kejn sa Engleskom... Počeo je da ruši re- dom, Meksiko, Poljska, Australi- ja, Holandija, Hrvatska i na kraju Francuska u finalu koje nije bilo dobro za one sa slabijim srcem.
UEFA. Za razliku od Mesija, us- peo je da osvoji titulu u Argenti- ni 1981. godine sa ekipom Boka juniors. Obojica su bili juniorski i seniorski prvaci planete, dok ne- verovatno zvuči da veliki Dijego nije uspeo da trijumfuje u Kupu Amerike. Za Maradonu Argentinci kažu da je „veći od fudbala“ i da ono što je ura- dio za zemlju ne može da
– Nemam prave reči, sve je ovo neverovatno. Znao sam da ce mi bog dati pehar, bio sam siguran, ovo je velika radost za nas. Odavno sam imao ovaj veliki san, želeo sam da reprezentativnu karijeru završim na svetskom prvenstvu. Hvala mno- go mojoj porodici, svima koji su me podržali i svima koji su verovali u nas. Još jednom demonstriramo da smo mi, Argentinci, kada se bori- mo zajedno i ujedinjeni, sposobni da postignemo ono što smo zacr- tali. Zasluge pripadaju ovoj grupi koja je iznad svakog individualca. To je snaga svih koji se bore za isti san koji je bio i san svih Argentina- ca... Uspeli smo – poručio je Mesi.
se meri zlatnim i kristal- nim peharima. Bile su to teške go- dine za tu južnoameričku državu, a Dijego je bio jedini ventil, čovek kroz koga je prolazio sav bes, ali i radost nacije. Sve to je na kraju i pojelo El Pibea. S druge strane, Mesi je već sa 14 godina napustio Argentinu i preselio se u Barselo- nu. Zato je morao više da radi, da dokazuje da je pravi Argentinac, kao što je to bio Maradona. I uspeo je... Kruna iz Katara je njegova, samo njegova. Leo, uži- vaj, zaslužio si!
Po mišljenju većeg dela fudbalske javnosti, Mesi je sada potvrdio status najboljeg svih vre- mena. A da li je bolji i od Marado- ne? Ako se pogledaju trofeji, Mesi vodi sa 40:11. Maradona nije bio prvak Španije sa Barselonom, ali jeste dva puta sa Napolijem u Itali- ji. Takođe, nikada nije slavio u Ku- pu šampiona, a ima trofej u Kupu
Reprezentacija Argentine je po treći put šampion sveta, a Lionel Mesi došao je do prvog trofeja na mundijalu

REFLEKTOR / SPOTLIGHT
IF WE START LISTING EVERYTHING THAT LIONEL MESSI HAS WON and done in his career, the captain of your flight will start announcing the landing of the plane and you won’t have time to read the full article. That’s why it’s best for us to start from the very end: Messi is a world champion with Ar- gentina. We’re sure you watched the now historic final against France in Qatar, which was decided by penal- ties. And you probably supported Messi. And who didn’t? Argentina waited almost two decades to see the crowning of the famous number ten, who thereby joined Diego Armando Maradona

Still, it’s unbelievable to consid- er that a player who’s had a career in which he’s won 41 club and nation- al team accolades, as well as 31 in- dividual awards, had to prove him- self from day to day and match to match...

among a rare few. Neymar couldn’t take the pressure with Brazil, nor could Cristiano Ronaldo with Portu- gal, Harry Kane with England... He began demolishing opponents one by one, Mexico, Poland, Australia, the Netherlands, Croatia and, final- ly, France, in a final that wasn’t for the faint-hearted. “I don’t have the right words. It’s simply unbelievable. I knew that God was going to give me the cup, I was sure – it was a big joy for us. I had this big dream for a long time, I want- ed to close my career with a World Cup. I can’t ask for more than this… Thank you so much to my family, to all who support me and also to all who believed in us. We prove once again that Argentinians, when we fight together and united, we are able to achieve what we aim. The merit of this group, which is above indi- viduals, is its strength of all fight- ing for the same dream that was al- so the one of all Argentinians... We did it,” said Messi. A majority of football fans are
now of the opinion that Messi has confirmed his status as the best of all time. And is he better than Marado- na? If you look at trophies won, Mes- si is ahead 40:11. Maradona wasn’t a Spanish champion with Barcelo- na, but he was an Italian champion twice with Napoli. He also never cel- ebrated victory in the Champions Cup, though he won a UEFA Cup title. Unlike Messi, he managed to win a league title in Argentina, with Boca Juniors in 1981. Both of them became junior and senior planetary champions, and while it might seem unbelievable, the great Diego never managed to triumph in South Amer- ica’s Copa América. Argentinians say that Maradona was “bigger than football” and that gold and crystal cups can’t measure up to what he did for the country. Those were difficult years for this South American country, and Diego was their only vent; the man through whom all anger was filtered, but also the joy of the nation. And all that ul- timately consumed El Pibe de Oro, the golden kid. In contrast, Messi had already left Argentina and moved to Barcelona by the age of 14. That meant that he had to work harder, to prove himself a real Argentine like Maradona had been. And, he succeeded! The crown of Qatar is his, and his alone. Leo, enjoy it, you deserve it!
Još jednom smo pokazali da smo mi, Argentinci, kada se borimo zajedno i ujedinjeni, sposobni da postignemo ono što smo zacrtali We prove once again that Argentinians, when we fight together and united, we are able to achieve what we aim
drinks and breathes football. Messi knew that Qatar was his last chance. He is 35 years old, has countless matches under his belt and deep wounds from injuries to his legs, and there’s even been talk of late that he’s no longer as fast as he once was. And Messi without speed is not Messi... He suffered a heavy blow at the very start of the World Cup, with Argentina losing 2:1 against Saudi Arabia. Shock and disbelief! If he could have caught the first flight to Barcelona at the time, he surely would have. But he didn’t; he stayed and took the blows of 50 million Argentines. He didn’t bend the knee, and that ranks him

Eklektika u podnožju živog vulkana Eclecticism at the foot of an active volcano
Katanija se nalazi na istočnoj obali Sicilije, u podnožju planine Etna. Taj kosmopolitski, buj - ni i eklektični grad krase brojni kulturno-istorij - ski spomenici, prelepe plaže i rezervat prirode. Katanija je raznobojan univerzum, od blistave beline njenih baroknih štukatura (pod zaštitom Uneska) do Liotrua, slona izvajanog od bazalta koji vas dočekuje na Pjaci Duomo u srcu Kata - nije, a koji je oduvek donosio sreću gradu. Palata Biskari Ovo je najvažnija palata u gradu i simbol ba - rokne arhitekture Katanije. Posle razornog ze - mljotresa zgradu je obnovio Ignjacio Paterno Kastelo Treći, princ, arheolog i ljubitelj umet - nosti, koji ne samo da je od nje napravio svoj dom vec je i osnovao prvi veliki muzej otvoren za javnost, u kojem se nalazi njegova velika ar - heološka zbirka. Ovde je princ primio Getea, ko - ji je bio na velikoj turneji po Evropi, a kasnije u svojim spisima detaljno opisao veličanstve - nost palate. Enterijer uključuje rokoko balsku salu sa složenom dekoracijom ogledala i fre - saka.
Catania is located on the east coast of Sicily, at the foot of Mount Etna. This bustling, cosmo- politan and eclectic city is adorned by numero- us cultural and historical monuments, beautiful beaches and a nature reserve. Catania is a mul- ticoloured universe, from the glittering white- ness of its Baroque stuccoes (a UNESCO Wor- ld Heritage Site) to the lava black of the Liotru, the elephant sculpted from basalt that greets us on the Piazza Duomo at the heart of the ci- ty and has always been a symbol of good luck for the city. Palazzo Biscari This is the city’s most important palazzo and a symbol of Catania’s Baroque architecture. Following a devastating earthquake, the buil- ding was rebuilt by Ignazio Paternò Castello III, the fifth prince of Biscari, an archaeologist and lover of the arts who not only made it his home, but also established the first major museum open to the public, containing his great archa- eological collection.

Pored mora u starom,
dragom N apoliju
Napulj je grad pun iznenađe - nja. Iznenadiće vas svaki put, jer istina je da ga posetiti jed - nom nije dovoljno. Čak i sami Napolitanci se svakodnevno zadivljuju nečim novim. Ali šta Napulj čini svetski poznatim? Postoje neki nagoveštaji… Njeno veličanstvo pica Prvi razlog zašto je Napulj ču - ven širom sveta jeste pica. Ov - de je u 18. veku rođena mar - garita. Prema legendi, kraljica Margarita Savojska zatražila je od jednog od najčuvenijih pi - ca-majstora Napulja da smisli neko jelo za narod. Rezultat je bila pica u bojama zastave tek ujedinjene Italije: zeleni bosi - ljak, bela mocarela i crveni pa - radajz. Napolitana ili margarita je tako postala simbol grada i čitave Italije. Danas grad ima najbolje picerije na svetu, a Unesko je 2017. godine umet - nost pravljenja napuljske pice proglasio svetskom baštinom. Najveci stari grad u Evropi Istorijski centar Napulja najve - ci je u Evropi. Impozantne pa - late, uske ulice, drevne crkve i jedinstveni podzemni prola - zi su samo neke od stvari koje doprinose da istorijski centar Napulja bude jedan od najo - čuvanijih starih delova grada u Evropi. Vezuv Vezuv je najpoznatiji vulkan na svetu, a i najopasniji, s ob - zirom na veliku gustinu nase - ljenosti u njegovom podnožju.

ples the most unchanged in Europe. Vesuvius Vesuvius is the world’s best- known volcano and the most dangerous, given the high po- pulation density living at its foot. The Neapolitan peo- ple fear and worship this hu- ge sleeping giant, making it the city’s symbol. Its erup- tion in 79 AD is perhaps the most famous of all known volcanic explosions globally and the first written record of an eruption. We could say that volcanology was born at the foot of Vesuvius. Its last explosion took place in 1944, after which the volcano ente- red its resting phase, altho- ugh it has always remained active. Canzone Napoletana Naples is famous throughout the world for its music, which inevitably spread during the great period of Italian emigra- tion. One of the first promo - ters of the overseas success of Neapolitan songs was Re- nato Carosone, while O’ Sole Mio was brought to the fore by famous tenor Luciano Pa- varotti in the 1990s. The legend of Maradona Since his arrival at the team and in the city, Maradona has been a God for Naples. Diego marked an era and his legend still lives on in the streets of the city. Many Neapolitan chi- ldren bear his name. After his death, the San Paolo Stadium in Naples changed its name to Stadio Maradona. Street Art All the famous people of Na- ples are represented in the city’s street art. This is a growing social phenome- non that includes gigantic works that redevelop entire neighbourhoods. Banksy’s fa- mous work (and his first-ever to be made in Italy) is a blue- grey Madonna with a gun in place of her halo.

Firenca je rodno mesto re - nesanse i muzej na otvore - nom. Poznata je i po svojoj jednostavnoj, ali neverovat - noj kuhinji. Iako je glavni grad Toskane manje očigledan kao krajnja stanica od Rima ili Venecije, to je četvrto naj - popularnije odredište u zem - lji i definitivno je ne treba pro - pustiti. Dakle, hajde da navedemo bar neke divne stvari po koji - ma je Firenca poznata.

Florence is known for being the birthplace of the Renai- ssance and an open-air mu- seum, as well as for its sim- ple yet amazing cuisine. While the capital of Tuscany is le- ss obvious as a final desti - nation than Rome or Venice, it is nonetheless the fourth most popular tourist destina- tion in the country and is de- finitely not to be missed. So, let’s find out all the wonderful things Florence is known for. Just watch out for the symp- toms of Stendhal (Florence) syndrome; the city’s beauty is so overwhelming that some folks feel dizzy and even hallu- cinate! “The day before yester- day, descending the Apenni- nes toward Florence, my heart was beating fast.

It was within those walls that civilisation was con- ceived anew.” (From the writin- gs of Stendhal describing the symptoms of “Florence syn- drome”) Florence Cathedral Beauty and monumentality aren’t the only reasons why Florence Cathedral (Santa Ma- ria del Fiore, or simply Duo- mo) is the city’s ultimate icon.

Firentinska katedrala Lepota i monumentalnost ni - su jedini razlozi zašto je Fi - rentinska katedrala (Santa Marija del fjore ili jednostavno Duomo) vrhunska ikona gra - da. Samonoseca kupola po - put njene nije izgrađena od antike jer je tehnika izgublje - na. Ovaj inženjerski prodor bio je glavni simbol tranzicije iz srednjeg veka u renesansu i modernu eru.

Od početka do sredine 15. veka Firenca je bila izuzet - no bogat grad i imala je sre - ce da ima vladare koji su vo - leli umetnost, a imali gomile novca (Mediči).

Renesan - sa je čak omogucila rođenje (oko jednog veka kasnije), mo - derne nauke, koja je dostigla vrhunac u samoj Firenci kada je Galileo Galilej izmislio nauč - ni metod. Galerija „Ufici“ Firenca je neka vrsta čuvara ogromne italijanske kulturne baštine, a „Ufici“ predstavlja sef u kojem se to blago čuva. U 16. veku Medičijevi su na - ručili zgradu za smeštaj poro - dičnih umetničkih dela. Dva veka kasnije ta zgrada ce po - stati jedan od najranijih mo - dernih muzeja, nakon što je poslednja naslednica Mediči - ja ostavila ogromnu kolekciju Toskani. „Ufici“ je dom svetski
in 1436, it became the world’s largest church. And to this day it is still the third-largest in Eu- rope (after St. Peter’s and Mi- lan Cathedral). The Renaissance By the early-to-mid 1400s, Flo- rence was an extremely ri- ch city and was lucky to ha- ve art-loving rulers with tons of cash (the House of Medici). They served as patrons to ge- niuses like Leonardo, Miche- langelo and Raphael, who ca- me up with a brand-new way of experiencing the world. The Renaissance even allowed for the birth (about a century la- ter) of modern science, which peaked in the very city of Flo- rence when Galileo Galilei in- vented the scientific method. Uffizi Gallery Florence serves as a sort of guardian of Italy’s enormous cultural heritage — and the Uf- fizi works as the safe where that treasure is stored. It was in the 16 th century that the

The new flavo- ur was made with honey, egg yolks and a touch of wine. Luckily for us, crema fioren - tina is still available at gelato parlours across the city. Pinocchio While Geppetto’s wooden son rose to global stardom thanks to Disney’s 1940 film, the ori - ginal story was actually crea- ted in Florence. Author Carlo Collodi published The Adven- tures of Pinocchio in a wee- kly magazine for children between 1881 and 1882. Upon being printed as a book a ye- ar later, it went on to become one of the most widely tran- slated and best-selling books of all time, as well as beco- ming one of the informal sym- bols of Florence.
Medici rulers commissioned a building to house the family’s artworks. Two centuries later, that same building would be- come one of the earliest mo- dern museums, after the last Medici heiress bequeathed the vast collection to the Tus- can state. The Uffizi is home to world-famous masterpie- ces like Botticelli’s The Birth of Venus and Caravaggio’s Me- dusa. Michelangelo’s David David may have defeated Go- liath, yet ironically Michelan- gelo’s version of the biblical fi - gure is a giant in its own right (5.2 m) and it has remained Florence’s main icon to this day.
