Mediteranski šarm Tel Aviva

The Mediterranean charm of Tel Aviv Capital of innovation and sunny beaches Laidback residents, excellent food, a pleasant Mediterranean climate, good nightlife and a rich cultural offer – these are just some of the reasons you’ll happily return to this city

Prestonica inovacija i sunčanih plaža Opušteni stanovnici, odlična hrana, prijatna mediteranska klima, dobar provod i bogata kulturna ponuda samo su neki od razloga zbog kojih ćete se sigurno rado vraćati u ovaj grad V eć prva 20-minut- na vožnja od Aero- droma „Ben Gurion“ do centra Tel Aviva skrenuće vam pa- žnju na činjenicu koja na neki na- čin definiše ovaj grad – na svakom ćošku pokazuje svoja dva potpu- no suprotna lica. Biznis-stranu, elegantnu i prefinjenu, ali i onu nesputanu, vrcavu, koja emituje radost i opuštenost. Pustite da vas grad nosi, ali neke stvari ipak ne- mojte da propustite. Prošetajte obalom Tajelet je promenada duga dva kilometra koju mnogi smatraju jed- nom od lepših u svetu, pa je sva- kako broj jedan na listi obaveznih stvari koje morate da vidite u Tel Avivu. Popločano šetalište razdva- ja pitomu peščanu plažu od šume nebodera i užurbanih ulica. Izgubite se u Jafi Zađite u njene vijugave kame- ne uličice i stepeništa, tipične za bilo koji mediteranski grad. Jafa, ili na hebrejskom – Jafo, jedna je od najstarijih luka na Mediteranu. Legenda kaže da je dobila ime po jednom od Nojevih sinova, Jafe-

T he first 20-minute drive from Ben Gurion Airport to Tel Aviv city centre will draw your attention to a fact that somehow defines this city: it shows two com- pletely contrasting faces at every turn. There is the elegant business side, but also the unrestrained side, glittering, exuding joie de vivre and a life of ease. Let the city carry you where it will, but there are also some “musts” in Tel Aviv... Stroll along the seafront The Tayelet is the two-kilometre- long promenade that many consider one of the world's most beautiful, so it's definitely number one on the list of Tel Aviv musts. This paved prom- enade separates the city’s calm sand beach from its forest of skyscrapers and busy streets. Lose yourself in Jaffa Enter Jaffa’s winding cobble- stone alleys and stairways that are typical of any Mediterranean city. Jaf- fa, or Yafo in Hebrew, is one of the Mediterranean’s oldest ports. Leg- end has it that it was named after one of Noah's sons, Japheth, who constructed it. One of its alleyways is also home to the “flying” orange

tree – a monument to the world-fa- mous Jaffa variety of this fruit, which originated in this region despite to- day being cultivated mainly in Spain. Eat on the streets As a true cosmopolitan city, Tel Aviv offers a wide selection of restaurants specialising in various world cuisines, but those in the know will recommend that you nonethe- less sample some local street-food specialities. One option is to take a guided culinary tour, while anoth- er is to follow the recommendation of locals and try falafel with hum- mus or tahini, as well as shakshou- ka, baba ghanoush etc. You'll notice that Israelis simply adore aubergines. Enjoy the White City The White City is the world's largest collection of Bauhaus-style buildings, which is also why it’s listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The areas forming the White City were built by Jewish architects who fled Germany. Here you can see ex- amples of modern 20 th century ar- chitecture with principles based on functionality and economical mate- rials. Tel Aviv's Bauhaus Centre reg- ularly organises architectural tours of the city.

Uživajte u Belom gradu Beli grad je najveći skup zgra- da u stilu bauhausa na svetu, zbog čega se i nalazi na Uneskovoj listi. Kvartove koji čine Beli grad izgra- dile su jevrejske arhitekte izbegle iz Nemačke, a na licu mesta možete videti primere moderne arhitek- ture 20. veka čiji principi počivaju na funkcionalnosti i ekonomičnim materijalima. Centar „Bauhaus“ u Tel Avivu organizuje redovne ar- hitektonske ture gradom.

Jedite na ulici Kao pravi kosmopolitski grad, Tel Aviv nudi velik izbor restora- na raznih kuhinja sveta, ali znalci će vam preporučiti da ipak ispro- bate neke lokalne specijalitete na ulici. Jedna opcija su turističke ku- linarske ture, a druga da posluša- te preporuku lokalaca i isprobate preukusni falafel sa humusom ili
