Do you know what the oldest cafe in the world looks like?

When it comes to the origin of coffee, it seems to be a long and old story. When coffee comes into our lives, it also shows that we have accepted a new way of life. Do you know what the oldest coffee shops in the world look like?

1.Le Procope's first coffee shop in Paris

Birth time: 1686 Cafe Age: 329

Le Procope, which opened in 1686, was the first coffee shop in Paris. From the outside, it is hard to imagine that this coffee shop in the alley behind St. Germain Avenue has a history of more than 300 years.

And if you know it, or talk to the waiters in the store, you will be surprised to know that Voltaire, Rousseau and Dickens were all regulars here, and it was even here that they wrote down the ideas of the European Enlightenment that became works.

Not only that, the following "names" will make you believe that coming to Le Procope for coffee is "about" equivalent to experiencing the modern history of France: Robespierre, Danton and Mara, the giants of the French Revolution, are here to discuss thoughts on social change.

When Napoleon was a young officer, he left an army cap here as collateral because he had no money to pay for it-a hat that is still the "treasure of the town shop" in Le Procope.

two。 Paris Flower God Cafe

Birth time: 1865 Cafe Age: 150

The Cafe de Flower, named after the ancient Roman goddess Flore, is one of the three famous cafes in Paris, located at the corner of the Boulevard Saint-Germain and the Rue Saint-Benoit in the sixth district of Paris.

Since its inception in 1885, this cafe on the left bank of Paris has witnessed many important moments in history-it is the enlightening place of "existentialism" and the birthplace of surrealism. For a long time, Huasen Cafe has been famous for receiving people from cultural and art circles. Picasso, Sartre, Breton and Trotsky, a politician, have all had coffee here.

Even Frederick Bergbird set up the Flower God Grand Prix (Prix de Flore) in 1994, which is presented every year at the Flower God Cafe, where Woody Allen's Midnight Paris was filmed.

As the second floor of the cafe is decorated in English style, it is simple and quiet, so it is a good place to think alone. Therefore, Huasen Cafe will also reserve a special seat for the winners on the second floor for a year, and always display a coffee cup engraved with the winner's name in the cafe.

3. Dual Cafe

Time of birth: 1873 Cafe Age: 142

Paris's famous "dual" Cafe (Les Deux Magots), also known as "two ugly cafes", is well-deserved to be regarded as a cultural attraction in Paris, with a mixture of reputation and tradition.

Sartre and his girlfriend Simone often patronize here, where Picasso fell in love with Miss Dora at first sight. Oscar Wilde, Ernst, Picasso, Sartre, Simone de Bovva, Saint Echo Perry, Hemingway, Amberto Echo and other romantic figures used to be regulars here, they were not only attracted by the "double couple", but also added a story to its fame.

In fact, the "twin" cafe or "two ugly cafes" refers to two Chinese statues in Qing Dynasty costumes carved on the wall. It was not a cafe but a silk shop run by two Chinese who brought silk to Paris, so they became the symbol and symbol of the building. They have become a strategy of cafes, using mysterious oriental culture as a banner and attracting literary bees to attract artistic butterflies.

The dual Cafe really lived up to the two ugliness. It is a famous writers' cafe on the left bank of the Seine in Paris, even in a place full of famous cafes such as Saint-Germain Square. Top cafes such as the dual Cafe can also be pulled with your fingers, and it is also listed in Paris guidebooks in all languages.

4. Lilac Garden Cafe

Lacloseriedeslilas, which opened in 1847, is located on the streets of Montparnasse in Paris. It was once the place where the youth of the new trend of thought gathered in Paris, and the collision of ideas, literature and art attracted a number of celebrities such as Zola and Cezanne.

In the long list of masters of the cafe, the young, poor but ambitious Hemingway was once the most famous guest here. Like all rebellious young people, he quit his high-paying job and buried himself in writing in the coffee shop.

To this day, there is still a "Hemingway's chair" in the clove cafe to commemorate that it took him two weeks to complete the "Sun Rises as usual" here. Sit by the wide and transparent French window of the cafe, look at the exquisite garden and fountain of the cafe, drink a cup of coffee, and feel the spiritual mood of the master.

5. Roman Greek Cafe

Birth time: 1760 Cafe Age: 255

Art and literature "date" here.

Beside the famous Spanish square in Rome, there is a famous cafe, the oldest Roman Greek cafe (Antico CaffGreco), which was opened by a Greek in 1720.

Famous European artists, poets and musicians have been fond of gathering here for centuries, even the kings and popes of the time.

The decoration style of the cafe is extremely elegant, in addition to retaining the traditional marble table and large mirror, but also decorated with a number of classical murals, and the waiters still retain the tradition of that year, with elegant tuxedos to serve the guests.

6.Caffe Rivoire Cafe

Date of birth: 1872 Cafe Age: 143

The Caffe Rivoire Cafe is located on the most famous Florence Art Square in the world.

In the open-air seat of the cafe and around the wait-and-see square, you can enjoy "David" by Michelangelo during the Renaissance, "Perseus" by Cellini, "Hercules and Centaur" by Zhangbologna.

In 1872, the founder of the coffee shop discovered the secret of how to roast coffee beans perfectly and made what people thought to be the most delicious coffee at that time. Soon, his coffee was loved by King Vitttorio II of Italy and was sought after by the European aristocracy.

Florence, as the birthplace of the European Renaissance, gathered many celebrities and scholars, so they rushed to this cup of coffee.
