Descriptive Writing

Just wondering how this is for a first draft of the start of a descriptive writing piece. (GCSE level)

A Lively Street Market

It was midday; the Spanish sun had risen to its highest point in the sky, beating down with the kind of intensity and constant heat usually reserved for saunas.
The street below was filled to the brim with stalls selling everything from exotic fruits to supposedly designer sunglasses and clothes. The number of these stalls was matched only by the unwavering enthusiasm of their owners, each seeming to be wearing half of their stock. Both in their own language and in broken English, they shouted to passers-by, battling with the overwhelming combination of Latin music, car horns and street bands to get there points across. “Madam! You want new necklace? I will do special price, just for you!” a particularly keen trader shouted as he spotted a wealthy-looking tourist glace his way.
