A walk through the Aswan, Egypt, "spice market" in the evening

The town of Aswan, Egypt, has a large market area -- mainly a long pedestrian street with shops squeezed in where ever there's room. There are a large number of spice merchants on this street so some people call this the spice market. This video is a 4 or 5 minute walk along this street in the evening in early January 2010. I have posted a series of 7 videos that cover my Egypt and Jordan tour. You can reach them most easily by doing a YouTube search with the following entry: Egypt-Jordan part 1 of 7 --- and after you've seen part 1, then replace "1" with "2" (and so forth) in the search box until you've seen all 7.

Nice video. Looks like they're still as laid back in the Aswan Market as when I went in 2008, they didn't hassle and pester you to death here like all the other markets/bazaars (so I liked it here best). I went just as it was getting dark too. This weekend I put up a video of my visit to Aswan... it shows the Market too, my felucca ride and belly dancers on our Nile cruise ship... check it out and let me know what you think.
