From: http://wiki.nginx.org/NginxHttpRewriteModule#rewrite

      Note: for curly braces( { and } ), as they are used both in
      regexes and for block control, to avoid conflicts, regexes with
      curly braces are to be enclosed with double quotes (or single
      quotes). For example, to rewrite URLs like:

 
      /photos/123456 
      to:

 
      /path/to/photos/12/1234/123456.png 
      use the following (note the quotes enclosing the regex):

      rewrite  "/photos/([0-9] {2})([0-9] {2})([0-9] {2})" /path/to/photos/$1/$1$2/$1$2$3.png;
