<strong>Worth</strong> Avenue’s<br />
Secret Courtyards<br />
Discover the world of <strong>Worth</strong> Avenue’s charming vias<br />
BY MEGAN KEARNEY<br />
VIA AMORE:<br />
FIND IT: Between St. John Boutique and<br />
Island Company, 200 Block<br />
WHAT NOT TO MISS: Via Amore is filled with<br />
art and has something eye-catching everywhere<br />
you look. Wrought iron gates encompass<br />
the entrance walls, and sculptures and<br />
fountains line each terrace. Lost? Be on the<br />
lookout for the mosaic compass on the ground<br />
near Café Via Flora, a quiet café surrounded<br />
by trees, flowers and twinkling lights. Additionally,<br />
make sure to spot the can’t-miss<br />
mural in the via before enjoying a delicious<br />
lunch.<br />
VIA MARIO:<br />
FIND IT: Between Maus and Hoffman and<br />
Ralph Lauren, 300 block<br />
WHAT NOT TO MISS: If you’re looking for a<br />
true Italian feel, visit Via Mario. A fountain<br />
greets you at the entrance of the via, and a reflecting<br />
pond lines the entryway and leads you<br />
to another eye-catching sculpture. If you want<br />
to have a secluded picnic or lunch, Via Mario<br />
is the place for you as it has tables and chairs<br />
in every corner.<br />
VIA PARIGI:<br />
FIND IT: Between Brown Harris Stevens and<br />
Il Papiro, 300 Block<br />
WHAT NOT TO MISS: Although the corridor<br />
that makes up the via may feel tiny at first,<br />
Via Parigi is anything but. Adorned by a trellis<br />
and intricate mosaic staircases, it opens up<br />
into a large outdoor terrace. A fountain is the<br />
centerpiece of Via Parigi, and abstract iron<br />
statues of the four seasons surround it. This is<br />
also home to Stubbs and Wootton, one of Palm<br />
Beach’s trademark shoe salons, famous for its<br />
embroidered slippers.<br />
