Blue is a color Jewish families used to paint their homes; blue and white to be precise. This city received its stunning paint job back in 1492 when Jewish people fled the Spanish Inquisition in Spain. Since then, over 500 years later, the city has remained blue.

Currently, the city has become Muslim but the color has remained high up in the Atlas Mountains of Africa.
