15 Photos That Prove Portugal Is The Iceland Of 2017

It’s safe to assume that 2016 was the year of Iceland, with the whole world (finally) waking up to the lush verdant landscapes and stunning natural wonders that encompass it. But as we move into a new year, and our travel goals have readjusted, so too has our eagerness to explore new places. So where is the number one place we’re crushing on right now?

With that in mind, here’s a little visual stimulation to get you as excited as we are about Portugal. From colourful Lisbon to seaside Porto, Portugal is a brilliant burst of colour, minus the usual tourist glut.
