Olinda is a UNESCO town in north east Brazil, in the State of Pernambuco, on the coast. Settled almost 500 years ago by the Portuguese, this hilly town of cobbled streets and coloured, art filled spaces, became home in the 70s to large numbers of artists. It has an enormous Carnaval which brings a million people in to swell its small population during its celebrations. It has marvellous old Portuguese historical sites and lots of art, in tropical splendour.

Best wishes to all for the week ahead. The news about the resurgence of Covid in Europe is so worrying. Hoping everyone keeps safe and healthy.
Thanks for visits and comments...so appreciated.

I love the colourful colonial facades! HFF, Diana, have a good weekend! You can start to relax a bit as you are going into summer, we have become too complacent and careless and pay for it now....

Wonderful architecture shot, Diana.
The facades are simply beautiful, and the cobblestones
underline the impressive charm of these houses.
HFF and best wishes for the week ahead to you, too.
Stay safe and stay well.
