Original Watercolour 10" x 7"
Olhao lies on the coast fairly close to Faro and at the end of the Ria Formosa Nature Reserve. Architecturally the town is well known for an older quarter where the flat terraced roofs and straight box-shaped chimneys show a definite Moorish flavour in their style. Another attraction to the visitor is the fish market held every day in a long building on the waterfront (Olhao is the largest fishing centre on the Algarve). Each morning there is a lively atmosphere and the impressively large variety of fish offered by the local catch is displayed to tempt the customers.
