A shop owner hidden beneath swathes of hanging fabrics in bright colours in the Old City of Jerusalem. Beautiful fabrics in silk and cashmere hang outside to the attention of passing trade while 'traditional' costume hangs for the perfect tourist memento.

A shop owner in the old city of Jerusalem sits outside his shop selling traditional items and souvenirs trying to entice passing tourists. The narrow streets of the Arab market come alive with scents of fresh cooked falafel and perfumes.

Two bus drivers sit waiting in the coach park for their tourists to return. The hanging flags from the buildings ceiling is representative of the different nationalities that visit every year whilst in the back ground a shop keeper sits awaiting custom. He sells tourist mementos of religious depictions along with postcards. Tourism is a vast source of income for the country.
