All buildings, streets and stairs are hidden behind rocks not visible from the sea. In that way Furore also got the name “the village that does not exist.” Once the mayor of Furore decided the rest of the world to find out about them and the village to appear on the map, he ordered all houses to be painted with intense colors that would attract the attention of tourists.
