People here grab you by the wrist and pull you towards their shops, promising you the best price in the market. I get shouts in Spanish and Italian. There's noise and movement, lights and colour. The smell of each stand promises great tasting food. Sweet mint tea and a leather something at every corner. Women covered from head to toe, tourists oblivious to dress code. Dark skinned men in white lab coats offering free drinks with the meal and kids trying to sell tissues and cigarets. It's 1am and the city is alive with trades and bargains, food, dance and music.
