About Porto

Porto dévale ses collines jusqu'au Douro : ville de granit, d'églises d'azulejos, de caves au bord de l'eau et de porto vieillissant en face.

Le quartier de la Ribeira borde la rive de maisons colorées, de cafés et de bateaux, au sein d'un centre ancien classé à l'UNESCO, sous les arches de fer du pont Dom Luís Ier. Au-dessus, le hall de la gare de São Bento est couvert d'azulejos bleus et blancs, la tour des Clérigos s'élève au-dessus des toits, et la cathédrale, la Sé, se dresse sur sa colline.

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).
