Jaws corner is a place where the locals gather to discuss politics and other things or just drink a cup of coffee. This corner is located somewhere in the maze like streets of Stone Town, on Zanzibar. It is a pleasure getting lost in all the tiny alleys while talking to some locals and looking at all the amazing doors and buildings. #zanzibar #tanzania #streetart
