About Porto

Porto stürzt über steile Hügel zum Douro: eine Granitstadt mit Kachelkirchen, Kellereien am Fluss und gegenüber reifendem Portwein.

Das Viertel Ribeira säumt das Flussufer mit bunten Häusern, Cafés und Booten, Teil einer UNESCO-geschützten Altstadt unter den eisernen Bögen der Brücke Dom Luís I. Darüber ist die Bahnhofshalle São Bento mit blau-weißen Azulejo-Kacheln bedeckt, der Torre dos Clérigos ragt über die Dächer, und die Kathedrale Sé steht auf ihrem Hügel.

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).
