A large group of people can be seen going about their daily routines, creating a mesmerizing visual symphony amidst the sepia-toned backdrop. It's a snapshot frozen in time that allows us to witness the energy and diversity that thrived within these ancient walls. As our eyes wander through this historic scene, we are drawn towards the covered bazaar where merchants proudly display their wares.

John Burke's lens transports us outdoors on a sunny day, capturing every detail with precision and artistry.
