EDITORS COMMENTS
Bab Brima, or the Brima Gate, is a stunning architectural marvel located in the historic city of Meknes, Morocco. This photograph, taken circa 1910, captures a breathtaking view of the gate, which was built during the reign of Sultan Moulay Ismail (1672-1727). The gate is an integral part of the ancient ramparts that once protected the city, and its intricate design is a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Morocco. The image shows the gate in all its grandeur, with its arched entrance framing the road leading into the city. The arches are adorned with intricate geometric patterns, creating a shaded and cool entrance that invites travelers to explore the wonders of Meknes. The gate is also home to several shops and cafes, making it a popular gathering place for locals and tourists alike. The photograph also offers a glimpse into the daily life of the city during the early 20th century. People can be seen going about their business on the street, while horse-drawn carts and donkeys make their way through the narrow streets. The buildings in the background, with their red-tiled roofs and ornate decorations, add to the vibrant and colorful scene. Bab Brima is just one of the many treasures that can be found in Meknes, a city that is steeped in history and tradition. This photograph is a reminder of the rich cultural heritage of Morocco and the beauty of its architectural wonders, which continue to captivate travelers from around the world.
