Aleppo Souk, a photo from Halab, North

Photographer's Note

The souk in Aleppo is one of the last genuine reminders of days gone by. Built by Saladin's son they consist of 12km of windong stome passages and khans, stacked with all goods imaginable. Even on the hottest days, the temperature within the souk remain tolerable.

Image is good, but lacks sharpness.

Very interesting image. I like the view of the street, with the light shining through from above. Interesting characters in the image too. Well captured.
