Description

These traditional stone cottages are set against a mountainous backdrop. One of the abundant natural resources in Cape Verdè is stone. Many of the traditional and modern structure are built from stone. They feature thatched roofs. These structures are very labor intensive and most modern buildings are made from concrete.
