  • Colourful houses you can visit all over the world

  • One of the things that makes a city or town so special is the architecture design of the houses and buildings. Whether they are Victorian houses, skyscrapers, blocks of flats or colourful buildings, the houses in which people live give us an idea of the history of the place and the way of life which the locals live. Today we have made a list of the most vibrant houses in the world. Do you want to take a look?
