Akko - Arabic Wedding Procession 1

This is a video of us in the middle of an Arabic wedding procession through the very tight corridors of the city of Akko, Israel. Called Acre when it was controlled by the French Crusaders, the streets have always been very narrow and overfilled affairs. So where would be the best place to have a wedding procession? Clearly through the shuk (open-air marketplace) in the middle of the day. Clearly.

I was given permission to post this video by the person who took it, my friend Théo Cohen.
