Costa Verde (Peru)
The Circuito de playas de la Costa Verde, also simply the Costa Verde, is a highway located along the coast of Callao and Lima, Peru. It unites the districts of La Punta, La Perla, San Miguel, Magdalena del Mar, San Isidro, Miraflores, Barranco and Chorrillos. History The land where the road is currently located was originally the location of large cliffs with no road access. Before the construction of the highway, some roads and balnearios had preceded the project under the government of Augusto B. Leguía. The land was reclaimed to make way for the project using land dug up from the construction of the Paseo de la República, an idea by then mayor of Miraflores . The Costa Verde project began and ended in the 1970s, with its name coming from a part of the plan that included adding vegetation to the then bare cliffs. During the 2007 Peru earthquake, the highway was damaged and temporarily closed. The was inaugurated in 2019 to be used in the Pan American Games, as we ...

Costa Verde (Portugal)
Costa Verde ( en, Green Coast) is a tourist and coastal region of northwest Portugal, delimited by the river mouths of Minho in the north and Douro in the south. The name of the region comes from the dominant colour of the dense vegetation of the land, the green (''Verde'' in Portuguese), supported by abundant precipitation. The climate is classified as Mediterranean (Köppen climate classification: ''Csb''). As a result, its climate shares many characteristics with coastal southwestern Portugal: warm, dry summers and mild rainy winters. In the coastal area, along with Porto, there are cities and towns with a strong tradition of beach tourism, and in fisheries, most notably Espinho and Póvoa de Varzim, both cities have popular casinos, hotels and golf courses. Other relevant coastal towns, with less urban development, include Esposende, Viana do Castelo, Vila do Conde, and Caminha. Several beaches in these municipalities are worthy of note, such as Moledo, Apúlia, Fão and Vi ...
