The tiny, rainbow-coloured island of Burano, Italy, with its the brightly painted, square-shaped houses with flower pots in each window, cheerfully reflected in the canals, surely deserves to be named the happiest place on earth! Before any skeptics chip in - nope, these photos aren't photoshopped! The reason behind these fairytale colours lies in the town's history. During the golden age of its development, citizens of Burano had to request an official permission to paint their houses, and it was up to the government to decide what colour they could use.

Colour therapy, anyone?

Burano's colorful architecture is reflected in the city's canals.

How can this be real?

Burano is the very definition of picture perfect!

So.much.colour!
