Djemma ElFna at Night

At night Djemma ElFna, the big square --  which isn't really square at all -- is turned into a giant barbecue where you can eat meat and fish and eggs and vegetables and buy dried fruit and drink orange juice.

The air is filled with smoke and the delicious smells of cooking.

When you have eaten, you can see all the entertainers and magicians and snake charmers. 

How empty the square is in the morning when the pavement is newly washed and few people are up.

Such a difference between night and day!

The building in the background is the post office.
