The Hookah is a gorgeous room, dark,
elegant and festooned with Mediterranean art.
When you enter the Mediterranean special
Hookah art place you'll be a mesmerized by the wall
ceiling decoration, the unique seating arrangements and the
wonderful atmosphere
When you smoke the Hookah, it takes you
away to another time and place. you learn patience and tolerance
, and it gives you an appreciation of the good company that
you're in. some of the most prolific leaders of past centuries
enjoyed the Hookah and respected it for the symbol that it
represented.
Traditionally, smoking the Hookah was
seen as symbol status. It is also similar to our depiction of
the handshake. In America, the use of the handshake symbolizes
the closing of a deal, which signifies trust and acceptance,
Likewise, the use of the Hookah exemplifies bonding and mutual
understanding. It has been said that in the early 1840's a
political crises erupted between the Outman Empire and France as
a result of the Sultan's refusal to offer the French Ambassador
the opportunity to smoke with him. So remember, always share the
Hookah if you're in the presence of people that you value!
The original design for the
hookah came from India or Persia, but it was rather primitively
made from a coconut shell. Its popularity spread to Iran and
then the rest of the Arab world. But it was in Turkey that the
water pipe completed its revolution and has hardly changed its
style for the last few hundred years.
These days in the cafés of
Cairo, puffing on their hookah water pipes, patrons mutter about
the unstoppable invasion of American fast food. Few realize that the hookah itself is stealthily
spreading across the globe.
