Stroll through the charming and well-preserved historical center, where every corner tells a story. Continue to Braga, one of the oldest cities in Portugal, renowned for its deep religious roots and over 2,000 years of history. Visit Portugal’s oldest cathedral and the breathtaking Sanctuary of Bom Jesus do Monte, where you’ll have the chance to ride the only functioning water-powered elevator in the world, a truly unique experience.

About Porto
Porto tumbles down steep hills to the Douro River, a granite city of tiled churches, riverside cellars and port wine aged across the water.
The Ribeira district lines the riverbank with colourful houses, cafés and boats, part of a UNESCO-listed old centre beneath the iron arches of the Dom Luís I Bridge. Above it, the São Bento station hall is covered in blue-and-white azulejo tiles, the Clérigos Tower rises above the rooftops, and the Sé cathedral stands on its hill.
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).
