Postcards from readers: Bustling Moroccan marketplace

The photographer: Anne Eychaner of Carmichael

Behind the lens: I spent about 10 days in Morocco this spring with my parents and some friends of theirs. They served as Peace Corps volunteers there in the early ’70s and this trip was in honor of the 50th anniversary of Peace Corps Morocco. We spend a few days in Marrakech, including the main square in the medina or old town, called Jama al-Fna. During the day it is filled with orange juice stalls, snake charmers, henna artists and so on. The square transforms at night and fills with food stalls and a variety of performers.
