Description:

Marrakesh, Morocco - at 9.30pm in the Bab Doukkala district, the city is full of life. 

Shops are open and bustling, the area is mostly locals and few tourists, but the most remarkable thing is the sheer number of scooters and motorbikes passing - in the space of just a few minutes, more than 20 motorbikes zip and slalom past us in the narrow alleyway, zig-zagging between pedestrians. You can hear it all in this recording.
