Evening call to prayer in Luxor, Egypt

I wanted to share this video from my family trip to Egypt last fall. We saw a lot of monuments and tourist places, but the most important parts to me were just feeling what it was like to be there.

This call to prayer struck me as so... foreign. It was one of the few times I've really felt truly out of place and alien. I left the volume the same and didn't augment anything.

Have people already done the marble matching game jokes or is this fertile soil?

Even the buildings that try to break away from the brown have brownness thrust upon them.
