Every street of London is beautiful with a historic charm attached to it. But, the most famous one is the Portobello Road, the market street of London. The street is known for its antique showpieces. The color-crazy houses, local food and the good old-fashioned rummage would definitely charm you.

7. La Boca, Buenos Aires

The colors of the homes in this street are amazing and they add a level of excitement to the amazing city. The best part is the residents of the street take colors very serious. When they get bored of a color, or they ran out of one, they simply add one more color and this has paved the way for the fascinating colorful patchwork houses.

3. Wall Street, New York

Wall Street

This street doesn’t need an introduction. This street is the symbol of the American financial sector. The 8 block-long street running roughly northwest to southeast from Broadway to South Street. It has nothing colorful or interesting to see but this street is a destination in itself. Nobody can deny the love of money after all.

2. Agueda, Portugal

Agueda, Portugal

What started as a summer project has turned into a piece of art. The ‘Umbrella Sky Project’ started in 2011 as a part of Águeda’s Ágitagueda Art Festival. The city residents hanged the pretty colorful umbrellas  to cool down the streets and we must say what an colorful idea it was.

1. The Canals of Amsterdam

No roads of concrete or high end vehicles, but the Canals of Amsterdam are the best streets of the world. With countless boats and bicycles on the sideways, they are perfect for romantic walks.
