When the Magic Carpets of Aladdin were added to Adventureland in 2002, some adjustments had to be made to both open up the area and enhance the story to make the new attraction feel right at home. Along the northern edge of the land, a couple of shops were removed, including Elephant Tales and Traders of Timbuktu. The facades of the Agrabah Bazaar took their place, creating an open-air marketplace where one could easily imagine a certain "street rate" scampering across the rooftops, eluding the Palace Guard.
The former Elephant Tales shop had included in its design some elaborate Indian-inspired tile work. The shop may be gone, but bits of the tile remain. Look down as you walk through the Bazaar, and you'll find them scattered about, along with random jewels and other trinkets dropped by the passing citizens of Agrabah.
