So far, everyone who has answered my puzzle has linked to the Wikipedia article about the object in question. Interesting how quickly that has become the canonical reference.

So the object in question is the جامع الفناء (http://ar.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D8%AC%D8%A7%D9%85%D8%B9_%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%81%D9%86%D8%A7) or Djemaa el Fna (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Djemaa_el_Fna). So far everyone has linked to it in English.

Ah, I had it right, then. (I looked up Marrakesh and made a guess, but wasn't confident enough in it to post.)

It took a lot of time to find it, and I wasn't sure if it was just the square or some significant object/place/activity within it, so I kind of gave up. I didn't know anything about it and had never heard of it before.

The wikimapia annotation doesn't directly help (but the adjacent hotel does), but it an amusing snark.
