This is a city bursting with color and life.
Designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site, it was founded in 1536 and has withstood the test of time, facing numerous challenges including pirate invasions, fierce storms, devastating fires, and powerful earthquakes. The majority of the current urban landscape emerged from the ashes of the 1906 earthquake, a testament to the resilience and spirit of its inhabitants.
The entire city is a canvas of vibrant hues, where every corner tells a story. Unlike in other places where graffiti often appears as isolated artistic expressions, here, the street art seamlessly integrates into the very fabric of the city. It’s not just graffiti; it’s a living, breathing part of the city’s identity, inviting visitors to take a moment and truly appreciate the unique character that adorns its walls.
