It was situated in the south-western part of the old city near to the Authorities' center and was known as the unique 'typical' Jewish quarter of Libya. The photograph shows an old and narrow paved street surmounted by arcades. The street is flanked by several little stalls on both sides and served apparently as a commercial street in the daytime. In the distance appear several men, traditionally dressed.
