About Porto

Porto styrter ned ad stejle bakker til Douro, en granitby af kakkelklædte kirker, vinkældre ved floden og portvin, der modner på den anden side.

Ribeira-kvarteret kanter flodbredden med farverige huse, caféer og både, en del af en UNESCO-beskyttet gammel bymidte under jernbuerne på Dom Luís I-broen. Over det er stationshallen São Bento dækket af blå-hvide azulejos, Clérigos-tårnet rejser sig over tagene, og Sé-katedralen står på sin bakke.

Top-ranked sights in Porto: Clérigos Church and Tower (Torre & Igreja dos Clérigos), Dom Luis Bridge (Ponte de Dom Luis I), Porto Cathedral (Sé Catedral do Porto).
