While walking through the streets of one of the most busiest markets in the world at Marrakech's market at the "Djemaa el Fna" Square, i came across this spectacular view of a small allay containing a shop selling old copper and tin trays, lamps, and other old things, this is a small glimpse of what Marrakech market is very exotic, eccentric, and exciting at the same time, really a worthwhile visit.
Marrakech or Marrakesh known as the "Red City", is an important and former imperial city in Morocco, near the foothills of the snow-capped Atlas Mountains.
Marrakech has the largest traditional market (souk) in Morocco and also has one of the busiest squares in Africa and the world, Djemaa el Fna.[2] The square bustles with acrobats, story-tellers, water sellers, dancers, and musicians. By night, the square turns into food stalls, becoming a huge open-air restaurant with busy life.

Very cool, that looks like my kind of place.It must have been raining from the reflection on the street and the covers over the outside items.It's kind of dark and mysterious.I like the composition.It looks like a picture you would see in a Fodor's travel book.
