The cluttered alleys and streets of Kuwait City are places of hidden wonders, inviting adventures. And in that so-called clutter, which sometimes seems like chaos, we can find the essence of the city. It is the norm for people to spend their leisure time in enclosed spaces instead of outdoor ones, but it is behind luxurious malls and between buildings that we find living scenes that tell a far more powerful story about urban life.
