Sudanese market

Vivid colors of the market.

A diverse range of scents that evokes fascination while passing by the stands with oily fragrances, incense and spices, and disgust in other places where one encounters inevitable piles of discarded waste.

Loud bargaining at every turn. Vendors in traditional white “jalabíyas” and unearthly women figures wrapped in all colors of the Sudanese “thobe”.

Daytime: constant noise and the omnipresent smell of petrol from the roads, where rickshaws, taxis and the often seen pick-up trucks with a group of passengers sitting on the edges of the trunk reign supreme.
Nighttime: tranquility and clear skies adorned with stars.

Fleeting moments from Sudan bring a unique experience that either changes you or at least how you see the rest of the world.
