Colorful Striped Village, Costa Nova

This is a small seaside town located in the west of Portugal, called ‘Costa Nova do Prado’☺️ As you can see in the picture, each house is unique and each has a different stripe pattern! But why are the houses in this town so colorful?❓ This is a small town between the sea and the river, and because of the terrain, it is said that there is a lot of fog🌫 So it is said that when fishermen returned in the past, they started painting their houses in bright primary colors so that they could easily recognize their houses. ◡̈ Thanks to this, it is now called the cute nickname of the striped town, and it is a pretty town no matter how you take a picture♡ . #Portugal #Porto travel #Porto travel #Suburban travel #Hidden travel destination #Travel destination recommendation #Life travel destination #Small city travel
