Greenland Colorful Houses Aapilattoq (Red House)
Aappilattoq’s brightly painted wooden houses are scattered across the rocky slopes above the harbor, creating a striking contrast with the dark mountains and deep blue water. Many of the homes date back decades and reflect a practical Greenlandic tradition.
