Traditional Bodrum Houses
Bodrum is famous for its white houses with blue or blue rimmed windows and doors. The white paint helps to reflect the sun’s rays and keep the interiors cool. It is also believed to repel insects. The doors and window panes, on the other hand, are painted blue according to local tradition. Bodrum natives believe in the ‘evil eye’ and the colour blue protects them from it. - Information on the signboard.
