Odori Zafferano
It was not Zeus who slept on a bed of saffron. And it was not the Romans who used it to mark the paths for emperors, nor the Persians who called it Safra - yellow, the symbol of gold and light. It came to the city after the year 1000 with the caravans from the East, bringing the scent of a hundred thousand flowers picked at dawn in every ounce.
