DUBAI - The ninth Dubai International Film Festival (Diff) will be held from December 9 to 16, 2012, announced on Sunday at the 62nd Berlin International Film Festival.<br />
The festival, held under the patronage of His Highness Shaikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, recorded strong growth in 2011 across parameters including number of films, number of premieres, number of Arab films, capacity, attendance at galas, sales, admissions, industry activity and the number and quality of industry and media delegates.<br />
Additionally more than four of the Diff 2011-supported films, including Death for Sale by Morocco’s Faouz Bensaidi, Diff-award winner The Last Friday by Jordan’s Yahya Alabdallah, “Gate #5” by Lebanon’s Simon El Habre and “The Rif Lover” by Morocco’s Narjiss Nejjar are currently at the 62nd Berlinale, one of the world’s leading festivals.<br />
The latter three films were supported by the Dubai Film Market’s post-production support programme, Enjaaz; the first by its co-production market, Dubai Film Connection. Other films screened at Diff, including Egypt’s ½ Revolution and Palestine’s Cinema Jenin, are also included in the festival’s Panorama, Forum or European Film Market sections, highlighting Diff’s success in developing its talent.<br />
As part of its commitment to nurturing talent, the festival also awarded more than US$600,000 to filmmakers from the UAE, the Arab world, Asia and Africa via its competitions, in addition to hundreds of thousands of dollars in co-production and post-production support to Arab filmmakers via its Dubai Film Market<br />
</div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319350177445153925.post-65295870573762656512012-03-03T19:41:00.000+05:002012-03-03T19:41:50.560+05:00Persian International Film Festival<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">28.02.2012 - This weekend, the inaugural Persian International Film Festival took place in Sydney, Australia, creating a unique local showcase for films from Iran, Dubai, Afghanistan and Tajikistan – nations that share the same Persian language, history and heritage. The four-day event brought large audiences from the local Persian communities as well as fans of world cinema to the Dendy Opera Quays theater, next door to the Sydney Opera House; and created a buzz on Sydney’s busy summer calendar with an appealing and thought-provoking program.<br />
<br />
Please Don’t Disturb (2011), written and directed by Mohsen Abdolvahab, won the festival’s award for best feature at the closing ceremony on Sunday. Abdolvahab’s film, which also won a screenplay award at the Dubai International Film Festival, weaves together three stories set in contemporary Tehran, depicting the lives of a battered wife, a mullah and an elderly couple. The award for best short film went to The Silly.<br />
PFF founders and co-directors Amin Palangi and Sanaz Fotouhi opened the festival on Thursday night after a welcoming party featuring Persian food and dancers in traditional dress. They described the event to attendees as a grassroots family affair (the two happen to be married, and relied on support from family members both in Australia and Iran) and touched on their vision of encouraging the exploration of Persian culture through film. Palangi admitted to being originally inspired by the success of Asghar Farhadi’s A Separation, the festival’s closing night film. “When A Separation won the top prize at the Sydney Film Festival in June, I suddenly felt that there was a festival missing in Sydney.” He decided then and there to throw his efforts into showcasing on the silver screen a range of cultures often absent from the Australian media.<br />
“We hope that this festival will offer a way of bridging cultural differences between people,” Fotouhi said afterwards. “What this means is that we wanted to cross cultural diversities and highlight common human traits, and film, because of its visual medium, is one of the best ways to do this.” Palangi and Fotouhi are both doctoral candidates studying film and diasporic Persian literature respectively, and both have also produced films in Iran as well as Afghanistan.<br />
The PFF’s inaugural program was modest but strong. The opening night film was Iran/UK co-production I Am Nasrine (Tina Gharavi, 2011), a rough-hewn but bold drama about a teenager and her brother who are forced by their parents to emigrate to England after she is arrested on morality charges in Tehran. That film’s themes of migration, families torn apart, youthful angst and star-crossed love resonate throughout the program in works that comment on the social turmoil, war and poverty that plague the region.<br />

Rainy Seasons (Majid Barzegar, 2010) is a portrait of an Iranian teenager suffering from his parents’ divorce.<br />
An interesting exception to the festival’s trend of social and family dramas was Opium War (2008), a black comedy from Afghani director Siddiq Barmak about two American soldiers lost in enemy territory in Afghanistan; it won best feature at the Rome Film Festival.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjj0n1xvIJzMT9p4L4inYQXNdgErYZQ_1TVI_9AXIDwi-qfIg8KATfoMjq3lc6SX3Ic6uU7VxIIRlUy8xdD4G0NKUxZNflQJqBLzOd0f3V5fRr82i2zf3Os2nMOqF-tA6dDQmnNd3EDB-k/s1600/heiran_web.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="136" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjj0n1xvIJzMT9p4L4inYQXNdgErYZQ_1TVI_9AXIDwi-qfIg8KATfoMjq3lc6SX3Ic6uU7VxIIRlUy8xdD4G0NKUxZNflQJqBLzOd0f3V5fRr82i2zf3Os2nMOqF-tA6dDQmnNd3EDB-k/s200/heiran_web.jpg" width="200" /></a></div>The festival also boasted a substantial program of short films, including Bitter Milk (Nasser Zamiri, 2011), a harrowing account of baby smuggling along Afghanistan’s border with Pakistan which won a number of prizes at regional festivals; Going (Salem Salavati, 2011), a tense drama about Kurdish refugees trying to escape Iran; and Delete (Kazem Mollaie, 2011) A comedy about digital photo manipulation featuring unique graphic art that won best film at the Tehran Short Film Festival.<br />
“We wanted to represent a diverse range of films from established filmmakers as well as emerging ones says Fotouhi.The festival is representative of a range of voices. It is not only about a unique voices, rather it is about the multiplicities of voices that are emerging from the region and from their overseas communities.<br />
No films from Tajikistan were included in the inaugural festival; but Palangi has stated that he is eager to see Tajik cinema included in future editions.<br />
In addition to the awards ceremony, the closing night of the festival featured an out-of-competition screening of A Separation, the widely acclaimed drama that won a Special Jury Prize at last year’s ADFF among many other accolades on its way to winning the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. Director Farhadi was originally scheduled to attend the sold-out screening, but was ultimately unable to because the Oscars took place in Los Angeles the following day.<br />
Sunday’s sessions also included a panel discussion about Iranian cinema and a screening of a short documentary about the making of A Separation. The PFF’s tribute to Farhadi will continue with monthly screenings of his earlier work – including the haunting About Elly, which screened at ADFF in 2009. A Separation will be released in Australia on March 1, following highly lucrative runs in Iran, Europe and North America.<br />

<i>Gulf Script Market for Short Films to ensure regions best stories see the light of day</i><br />
<div><i>Dubai, UAE; February 28, 2012: Arab filmmaking received a major stimulus today with the launch of the new ‘Gulf Script Market for Short Films,’ an initiative that will finesse the scriptwriting skills of regional writers and filmmakers, partner them with directors and producers, and help turn the completed scripts into reality. The pioneering programme, a first for the Gulf region, was unveiled by the Dubai based Gulf Film Festival, in advance of its fifth edition from April 10 to 16, 2012.</i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLUPObwq0m2McaH3NGYpDrzEhpWBiqgHQ_y5f8AJGutzNqF7ocz5AU7fQD1WZYsHx4AYXXrORaQyseMuyiJO4ZEKLsq7BCMcmshje5jPUb0OcXGAS5ecGVBAgwGt3naT1qrOaDIyI6fF8/s1600/gcc_filmmakers_at_gff__small.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="132" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjLUPObwq0m2McaH3NGYpDrzEhpWBiqgHQ_y5f8AJGutzNqF7ocz5AU7fQD1WZYsHx4AYXXrORaQyseMuyiJO4ZEKLsq7BCMcmshje5jPUb0OcXGAS5ecGVBAgwGt3naT1qrOaDIyI6fF8/s200/gcc_filmmakers_at_gff__small.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><div><i><div>The integrated script market offers three days of hands-on script doctoring led by award-winning regional filmmakers, followed by pitch sessions to emerging and established directors, and industry networking geared towards securing partnership and production agreements.

Paired with the Festival’s existing US$250,000 Enjaaz annual production fund for Gulf short films, the new initiative creates a holistic, end-to-end support programme for emerging and established scriptwriters, directors, and other film talent from the region.</div><div>Celebrated Egyptian director and scriptwriter Mohamed Khan; award-winning Lebanese director, scriptwriter and film entrepreneur Michel Kammoun and accomplished Bahraini author and scriptwriter Fareed Ramadan will serve as the script market mentors for the first edition.</div><div>Masoud Amralla Al Ali, Director of the Gulf Film Festival, said that the founding of a market for short film scripts is an innovation created in response to market needs. “There has never been an integrated market, which meant that several good scripts could not be converted to movies, as writers did not have the necessary industry linkages. Producers and directors, on the other hand, were complaining about the scarcity of excellent scripts.”</div><div>“The script is the bedrock of any film – and the stronger the foundation, the better the film. Our three-pronged approach, to work hands-on with scriptwriters, to make matches with working directors and producers, and to facilitate larger industry connections, is the right step at a time of high interest in and high productivity from our region. By combining the strengths of all parties, we will lift the quality of filmmaking from a region that has both a significant talent base and a lot to say.”</div><div>Submissions to the inaugural script market are open until March 15, 2012. Entry is free and open to filmmakers, scriptwriters and authors of GCC, Iraq or Yemen nationality or origin; all applications must have a scriptwriter attached. Scripts can be submitted in English or Arabic, with a maximum of two scripts per team/individual. More details, rules and regulations, and the application form, are at www.gulffilmfest.com.</div><div>Ten to 15 projects will be selected from the entries, with shortlisted teams invited to a three-day mentoring session with industry professionals during GFF 2012. The finessed scripts will then be pitched to directors and producers participating in the Festival, with participants joining dedicated networking sessions and other Festival activities. All shortlisted teams will receive flights and accommodation to GFF2012. </div><div>Shivani Pandya, Managing Director of the Gulf Film Festival, said: “Our efforts are focused on the future: We are cultivating a sustainable base of screen-ready film projects with the right talent attached that can move quickly into production.”</div><div>Widely regarded as the home of bold, innovative and contemporary filmmaking from the Arabian peninsula and an incubator for talent from the Gulf states, Iraq and Yemen, the Gulf Film Festival is home to a Gulf Competition for professional and student filmmakers, an international shorts competition and multiple out-of-competition segments.

<i>Barjis graduated with a MA in Design from Central Saint Martin’s College of Art and Design. With a background in fashion design, she has spent time interning at Vivienne Westwood, designing haute couture evening wear for a French Fashion house in Monte Carlo. Barjis, has a love for art, architecture and life; and she believes fashion is an extension of this and therefore a celebration of life, which comes across in her beautiful designs. Her dream is for her fashion label to become a luxury designer label to be reckoned with in the world of fashion.</i><br />
<i>The collection is produced in an array of luxurious georgette, crepe and 100% silk and the designs have delicate pleats and gathers that drape elegantly. Select pieces incorporate crystals, handmade embroidery, beads and prints to add glamour, grandeur and that high end touch.</i><br />
<i>The pieces are predominantly suited for the modern Muslim woman, but they can be worn by any woman who appreciates good quality fabrics, feminine lines, subtle detail, elegant cuts, and diverse textures and wants clothes to enhance her inner and outer beauty and her personality.</i><br />

It is a special place of interest and fun for tourists and the people of Dubai.<br />
H. H. Sheikh Rashid bin Maktoum, the late Ruler of Dubai, permitted Otto J. Bulart to build the Zoo on a two hectacre plot in Jumeirah.<br />
The Dubai Zoo became a landmark as it indicated the "town's end".<br />
During the first couple of years of its existance, the Dubai Zoo housed only a few animals like the big cats, monkeys and hoofed-animals. There was also a small acquarium with some fishes and reptiles.<br />
In 1971 the management of the Dubai Zoo was taken over by the Dubai Municipality.<br />
From May 1986 to May 1989, a part of the Zoo was redesigned and rebuilt. From June 1989 to the present there is constant re-designing and renovation.<br />
Located in Jumeirah, the Dubai Zoo is a popular attraction, especially for families. The zoo's modern facilities though small, house many indigenous Arabian species, including the Arabian Wolf, which is no longer found in the wild, Gordon's Wildcat and the world's only captive breeding colony of Socotra Cormorants.</i></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319350177445153925.post-7876121749341292272012-03-01T11:03:00.001+05:002012-03-03T17:54:11.538+05:00Photos of Crowne Plaza<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><u><br />

But the assignments I enjoy the most are those that are slightly more bizarre, which is why I was excited and intrigued in equal measure about Dubai Creek Golf and Yacht Club’s latest dining innovation: a barbecue mounted aboard a floating doughnut.<br />
<br />
Dining on doughnuts is one thing, but dining upon one is another matter altogether, especially when it’s floating on Dubai Creek. Of course, said doughnut isn’t made from deep-fried flour dough (which isn’t renowned for its flotation properties); instead it’s a name given to the doughnut-shaped floating barbecue stations that have recently launched at Dubai Creek Club restaurant The Boardwalk. The boats have been imported from Germany, where they’ve long been enjoyed by holidaymakers on the Bavarian lakes. What made them of particular interest to me was the fact diners are provided with a cool box<br />
of food and drink, a smouldering, charcoal barbecue and left to their own devices for a couple of hours.</i></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319350177445153925.post-66065374888333245622012-03-01T10:41:00.003+05:002012-03-03T17:54:51.209+05:00Burj Al Arab Hotel Dubai<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYnbhW9O2XPiG0BEkeL0tSSozHKlE74uqzXtuNpSb_m_0K1B9MaTGm2tsQohHXdDD7RJjcVFzdcGZvyTmrzC4X5lyGciYKZLOWu9zYuPvRCh7tY39zsUp0aZ1vrDjsF3w4wg9cjEPk4bE/s1600/Burj-Al-Arab.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="157" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgYnbhW9O2XPiG0BEkeL0tSSozHKlE74uqzXtuNpSb_m_0K1B9MaTGm2tsQohHXdDD7RJjcVFzdcGZvyTmrzC4X5lyGciYKZLOWu9zYuPvRCh7tY39zsUp0aZ1vrDjsF3w4wg9cjEPk4bE/s200/Burj-Al-Arab.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><i> Burj Al Arab Hotel Dubai is recognized as the tallest and most luxurious hotel in the world. Gracefully shaped like the sail of a boat and perched on its own man-made island, the hotel is close to the famed Palm Jumeirah Island. Guests will enjoy the beauty and relaxation of coastal accommodations while maintaining a reasonable distance from downtown Dubai including historic Hatta Village and the Old Bastakiya District.<br />
Location<br />
Burj Al Arab is located 25 km from Dubai International Airport. It towers over Jumeirah Beach and Wild Wadi Water Park and is surrounded by the Arabian Gulf. Nearby Umm Suqeim Park is a relaxing retreat.<br />
<br />
Rooms<br />
Arabian nights are spent in luxury in the two-story suites with views of the Gulf. Exquisite decor is accentuated with jewel tones, chandeliers and spiral staircases, with amenities such as rain showers and pillow menus.<br />
<br />
Restaurant<br />
Burj Al Arab Hotel features seven restaurants meeting the highest standards in culinary perfection. The Culinary Flight takes guests on a gastronomic tour of five of the hotel's restaurants.<br />
<br />
General<br />
With a reception desk on every floor and butler services, guests of Burj Al Arab Hotel Dubai can rest assured their needs will be met. Assawan Spa offers treatments inspired by the surrounding elements, and with an upgraded stay guests can enjoy a Rolls Royce with a chauffer.

However, the route to Vista at the new Festival City Intercontinental is so awe-inspiring good you may want to strut up and down it a few times as though it were a runway. The grand, high-ceiling ed entrance, flooded with light from the full-length windows during the day, is on a par with the Skimpiness when it comes to lobby scores (Yes, we subconsciously compare hotel receptions. How ‘Dubai’ is that?).</i><br />
<i> And if you liked the reception – you may well become a little overcome once you reach your final destination. Vista is divided into three distinct areas. Round the first corner and you hit the piano bar, where a tuxedo ed tinkle taps the ebonies and ivories, droopy chandeliers sparkle and couples rekindle romances or start something special around the cost tables. </i></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319350177445153925.post-59083628036299368962012-03-01T10:30:00.001+05:002012-03-03T17:55:08.012+05:00Skyyline Bar in Dubai<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinBOzzEz5uKXetSQLxjqm3iaYrlN_DfJFiR7Z5ggFdrEkDBGk2saL17QcT-NxTVb5n4j7c-Ur11G_Oz0QuytpLf0Xvx7d0yzKwhISZW2wVzXm88hYQpaytPUCvmSHJdJj88WGb62vwsUM/s1600/skyline180110_1_innerbig.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="120" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinBOzzEz5uKXetSQLxjqm3iaYrlN_DfJFiR7Z5ggFdrEkDBGk2saL17QcT-NxTVb5n4j7c-Ur11G_Oz0QuytpLf0Xvx7d0yzKwhISZW2wVzXm88hYQpaytPUCvmSHJdJj88WGb62vwsUM/s200/skyline180110_1_innerbig.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><i>It may not be the fanciest hotel in Dubai, but Festival City’s Crowne Plaza has one of its most popular bars <br />
It may not be the fanciest hotel in Dubai, but Festival City’s Crowne Plaza has one of its most popular bars, in the form of Belgian Beer Café. We wouldn’t be surprised, then, if this new opening was a way for the hotel to take the strain off the BBC.<br />
<br />
But that doesn’t make Skyline inferior to its sister. While its huge space doesn’t have the charm of the BBC, and its beer selection is nowhere near as wide (it’s dedicated to Skyy vodka, after all), it’s an excellent place to lounge about on the whopping white sofas or red hammocks while watching the sun set on the Burj.

It’s all about the views. Which is kind of fortunate considering the decor at Eclipse – while undoubtedly plush (the carpets could successfully cushion a fall from a 10-foot drop, let alone one from grace) – is a little, erm, ’80s. But somehow this works for, rather than against a bar where service is sleek and gracious (complimentary mishmash to offset the arctic air con, mobile table lights if you find reading the menu in the low light difficult, a selection of tasty bar snacks that are more amuse bouche than Walkers crisps) and the atmosphere elegantly subdued.<br />
The emphasis here is on champagne, with an excellent selection available by both bottle and glass. There is also a decent range of cocktails and spectacular 26-storey views over the Creek and beyond.</i></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319350177445153925.post-45195500196218143102012-03-01T10:25:00.001+05:002012-03-03T17:55:24.619+05:00Belgian Beer Café in Dubai<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8vcaRdGZVOEYS-IFGtzDHqVFjz-gvdr4nIuq_7UZudLbJ15bYW4dLxrM16DdLckBhoLrkIHIGrXgiD1pPAfq3hnEAoZhJEwNNiO7xhEYq2T445wUUqlv1AUoyhp22EE_B2_pmnsinSak/s1600/belgian32011_1_innerbig.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="120" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi8vcaRdGZVOEYS-IFGtzDHqVFjz-gvdr4nIuq_7UZudLbJ15bYW4dLxrM16DdLckBhoLrkIHIGrXgiD1pPAfq3hnEAoZhJEwNNiO7xhEYq2T445wUUqlv1AUoyhp22EE_B2_pmnsinSak/s200/belgian32011_1_innerbig.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglM6h-v_hj6Cwav3-RZeEQGOSb6mzwCcqn4fbvshBUOrZQrQEy5nNUwsouWzonRhTMzYu5JAT2-XzwT1OoaFQN-dQsLKjaG_zFdGYkKNA0TIvugyqzxEsO3KzXUonVfFdAVmQK8XvOm9k/s1600/belgianbeer_1_innerbig.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="120" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEglM6h-v_hj6Cwav3-RZeEQGOSb6mzwCcqn4fbvshBUOrZQrQEy5nNUwsouWzonRhTMzYu5JAT2-XzwT1OoaFQN-dQsLKjaG_zFdGYkKNA0TIvugyqzxEsO3KzXUonVfFdAVmQK8XvOm9k/s200/belgianbeer_1_innerbig.jpg" width="200" /></a><br />
<i><b>European theme bar with a varied drinks menu</b><br />
There was only one runner in this category. It wasn’t until Belgian Beer Cafe (quickly and affectionately shortened to BBC) opened its doors in April that Dubai could at last offer a sophisticated draft selection – naturally all from Belgium. It was also the first time we could enjoy fine mussels and Belgian sausage while gazing out over sparkling views of the Creek, from its outdoor deck. And we commend the authentic sense of the bar’s birth place that slaps you across the face as soon as you walk in.<br />
From the shiny trumpet, weathered leather satchels and hundreds of other eye-catching clutter hanging from the coat stands and walls, every- thing is flown in directly from the land of chocolates itself. Head down on a Thursday, post-work, to join the busy loosened-tie crowd, or while away a lazy afternoon there, over fine fare and a paper. Magnifique!</i></div>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319350177445153925.post-65201922736394534372012-03-01T10:21:00.001+05:002012-03-03T17:55:29.647+05:00Popular Open-Air Bar Has Some Of Dubai's<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUR4KBCSnqGWb-b9E50Llt88DTW3O05mogDGOPVxM-w21DIIqy6CNxN-9sc4DQDot8snvQcBKJZbFeBKJO2EVTXbRuhyphenhyphenJh1nxOo5FMLHICjHeh7NUCsxi_Kb41MhYGJvWYlh716fQM7to/s1600/360_1_innerbig.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="120" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhUR4KBCSnqGWb-b9E50Llt88DTW3O05mogDGOPVxM-w21DIIqy6CNxN-9sc4DQDot8snvQcBKJZbFeBKJO2EVTXbRuhyphenhyphenJh1nxOo5FMLHICjHeh7NUCsxi_Kb41MhYGJvWYlh716fQM7to/s200/360_1_innerbig.jpg" width="200" /></a></div><i>Having recently reopened for the new, cooler season, this popular open-air club, positioned at the end of a pier, has lined up a string of international DJs that are sure to keep the crowds coming back.
