Traveling through it was a pleasure for all the senses. The aroma of delicately seasoned meats simmering in copper pots, fresh bread products, fruits, cheeses, honey, linen or china to add to their bracelets and earrings, all were offered for sale and often brought great distances by shaggy camels through the hot desert sands. dow-erie- s.

Weaving their way through the closely grouped stalls, built that way for safety and convenience, they never failed to feel the magic. Surely the bazaar was the favorite part of the city for those long ago buyers, sellers, and casual observers. Our modem world is so distant from that unsophisticated, although colorful, scene.
