Bab Sbaa

Bab Sbaa is one of the many gates leading to the medina of Essaouira. Shot from the car as we didn’t enter through here. I had a very hard time identifying this because it must have been restored and didn't look like any pictures I was able to find of gates online. I finally sent this to Rostom, our driver, and he told me what it was.

A shuttered building with fancy woodwork, posted earlier:

The architecture is beautiful. It probably was nicer before it was restored, if that makes sense. V

An excellent from-the-car shot, Helen, with so much to see. I like this very much.

It seems like a series of gates. I see another one in the back.

Fascinating collection of architectural styles, and a very nice alignment of the two archways. V
