A narrow, whitewashed alleyway in a North African city, likely Tunisia or Algeria, is shown. The alley, called "ZIRARA," is lined with buildings featuring traditional, dark wooden shutters. Several street lamps are visible, casting a soft light on the scene. Colorful paintings of local scenes are displayed on the ground, likely for sale by local artists. The alleyway's paving stones are a light brownish-gray. The overall impression is of a quiet, traditional, and artistic part of the city.
