Spain, country of the Patio

Cádiz is full of patios. Almost every house in the old town has one. Since the front doors are usually open, you can walk up to the wrought iron gates and look into the patios.

In Spanish architecture, patio refers to a (rectangular) inner courtyard of a residential building, which can be partly covered and partly uncovered. There is often a fountain in the middle of this characteristic courtyard.

They are great places to spend time, especially in the hot summer when it is too sunny and too hot outside.

As my plans move towards staying 6 months abroad and 6 months in Germany and rent a flat somewhere for 6 months I want to rent a flat with a patio one day here in the Costa de la Luz.Lue lisää
