The focal point of the image is a stunning display of carpets that adorn the market stalls, showcasing a kaleidoscope of colors and patterns. The sheer variety and intricacy of these carpets reflect not only their artistic value but also the rich cultural heritage they represent. Amidst this sea of textiles, local male traders can be seen engaging with potential customers, adding to the lively ambiance. Each individual brings their own unique touch to this ancient trade, embodying generations-old craftsmanship passed down through time. The photograph encapsulates both tradition and modernity as pedestrians navigate through this busy marketplace. It offers a glimpse into daily life in Africa's oldest Islamic city, where centuries-old traditions continue to thrive amidst contemporary influences.
