'Sports'.
'Sports'.
The Magic of the Cities.
Zen promotes the rediscovery of the obvious, which is so often lost in its familiarity and simplicity. It sees the miraculous in the common and magic in our everyday surroundings. When we are not rushed, and our minds are unclouded by conceptualizations, a veil will sometimes drop, introducing the viewer to a world unseen since childhood. ~ John Greer
Il Caffè Florian.
Venezia 1720
Opened in 1720 in Piazza San Marco in Venice, Caffè
Florian is Italy’s oldest Café. While seated in one of the café’s frescoed
rooms or outside listening to the orchestra in the Piazza, one can enjoy
impeccable service and products of the finest quality.
Famous for its rich history as a crossroads of art,
culture,
politics and entertainment, today the Florian is also
known for its elegant trademark products: coffee, teas, chocolates, cookies,
porcelains, and design objects. The Florian Gourmet, Lifestyle, and Design
