Dragi gosti i čitatelji, i ove vam godine želimo dobrodošlicu u svoj prekrasni grad i na stranice svoga časopisa. Prošlogodiš- nje pokretanje Sun Gardens Magazinea pokazalo se kao izvrstan potez i drago nam je zbog toga. Zato smo i ove godine tu za vas. Pripremili smo vam mnoštvo zanimljivih tekstova – ne- koliko intervjua s iznimno interesantnim i uspješnim sugovor- nicima, vodič kroz prošlost i sadašnjost Dubrovačkih ljetnih igara, kao i neke druge primamljive teme. Nemojte nešto pre- skočiti jer vas unutar stranica čeka i tekst o pet stvari koje bi bilo šteta propustiti u Dubrovniku i okolici.

Ugodan boravak vam želimo, odmarajte se i opustite, ljeto je uvijek najbolje vrijeme za to. Još ako ste, k tome, i u Dubrovni- ku... što bolje možete poželjeti?

Dear guests and readers, this is another year that we welcome you to our beautiful city and the pages of our magazine. Last year’s inauguration of Sun Gardens Magazine turned out to be a brilliant move and we are very pleased about it. This is why we are here for you this year as well. We have prepared a num- ber of intriguing articles – several interviews with very inter- esting and successful people, a guide to the past and the pres- ent of Dubrovnik Summer Festival, and many other riveting topics. Do not skip any pages, because one of the articles talks about five things tourists should not miss to see in Dubrovnik and the vicinity.

Have a pleasant stay, get plenty of rest and relaxation; summer is always the best time to do that. If you also happen to be in Dubrovnik... what more could you ask for?

Over time, his acting career beznačajnom, posvetio sam se onome što mi je bilo je na kraju i prevladala. Tako se prije 10-ak godina Meštar was surpassed by his love of boat building, which prevailed in odlučio ostaviti glume, ali ne i potpuno je se odreći. Danas je the end.

Tradicija poluotoka Pelješca The Tradition of the Pelješac Peninsula

Plenty of sunshine, pristine na- ture and crystal-clear sea of the beautiful Pelješac Peninsula and, as an added value, hundreds of years long tradition of viticulture and wine making

Predivan poluotok Pelješac osim mnogo sunca, netaknute prirode i kristalno čistog mora, nosi još jednu veliku vrijednost, on priča priču o nekoliko stotina godina dugoj tradiciji vinogradarstva i vinarstva

Photographs Zoran Marinović Dubrovački tradicijski nakit Traditional Dubrovnik Jewellery

Još nitko nije ostao ravnodušan na prirodne ljepote Dubrovnika. Njegova ljepota ostala je kroz po- vijest zapisana u djelima brojnih pjesnika i pisaca. No osim prirod- nim ljepotama, Dubrovnik očarava i tradicijskim nakitom od zlata i filigranskog srebra o čemu od dav- nina svjedoče dubrovački zlatari. Ne postoji ljepši suvenir od dubro- vačkog nakita koji će vas mislima vraćati na lijepo provedene trenut- ke u Dubrovniku.

The natural beauties of Dubrovnik have left no one indifferent. Its beauty has been mentioned in the works of numerous poets and writ- ers throughout history. But besides with its natural beauties, Dubrovnik also fascinates with its traditional gold and silver filigree jewellery, which goldsmiths in Dubrovnik can confirm. There is no souvenir more beautiful to remind you of the won- derful moments in Dubrovnik than the Dubrovnik jewellery.

Funkcija zlatara u doba Dubrovačke Republike bila je vrlo bitna jer je o njima ovisila i sloboda Dubrovnika. Osim nakita, izrađivali su i darove za strane vladare i osobe o kojima je ovisila samo- stalnost Republike. Zlato je u Republici bilo toliko važno da je jedna ulica u Dubrovniku nosila ime – Zlatarska.

Tehnika tradicionalne izrade nakita bila je dug i težak proces te se nije lako učila. Na tankom limu plele su se zlatne niti koje bi se spajale u filigrane. Zlatari su njegovali tradi- ciju te su tehniku prenosili s koljena na koljeno. To je glavni razlog zašto je zanat očuvan do danas. The traditional jewellery making technique was a long and difficult process, which wasn’t easy to learn.
