Chefchaouen Blue City
The small mountain city of Chefchaouen in the Rif Mountains was founded in 1471 as a refuge for Muslims and Jews fleeing the Spanish Reconquista, and its entire medina was painted in shades of blue -- from powder blue to cobalt to turquoise -- by Jewish refugees in the 1930s who believed the color represented the sky and heaven.
