Description

Derb Sidi Lahcen ou Ali, Bab Doukkala, Marrakech, Morocco.

This small street I walked a dozen times. It is symbolic for all the little alleys in Marrakechs old town (medina). It also shows both the quietness and vibrant life those backstreets can bear. Kids play soccer and yet it doesn't seem to be over-crowed or noisy. I also snapped the picture right when a local woman walked by the playing kids in a colorful, both modern and traditional designed dress.
The color of the dress goes really well with the hue of the buildings - this kind of red you'll find on most houses anywhere in Marrakech. Marrakech isn't also called the "red city" for no reason. And yet even in this one small alley you can find differnet tones of red, going all the way to yellow.
