Street Stonetown 04
2022 Zanzibar, Tanzania
This alleyway winds through Stone Town, the old Swahili trading quarter of Zanzibar City. The quarter is known for its elaborately carved wooden doors, often studded with brass, a craft blending Arab and Indian influences, and lanes like this were laid out centuries ago, long before motor vehicles, and much of their layout survives largely unchanged.

A family album, a postcard, a print from the attic. Pin it to the map and it becomes part of the record.
