Azulejos are painted, glazed ceramic tiles that originated in 13th-century Portugal, where they were used in buildings during the Gothic period. Today, these decorative tiles can be found in a variety of structures, from monasteries, palaces, and restaurants to bars, train stations, and single-family homes. The design of the tiles is typically related to the history of the building, and the individual pieces often create an intricate mosaic. There are countless wonderful examples of these beautiful tiles throughout Portugal.
