About Porto

Porto styrter ned bratte åser til Douro, en granittby av fliseklede kirker, vinkjellere ved elven og portvin som modnes på den andre siden av vannet.

Ribeira-bydelen kanter elvebredden med fargerike hus, kaféer og båter, en del av et UNESCO-vernet gammelt sentrum under jernbuene på Dom Luís I-broen. Ovenfor er stasjonshallen São Bento dekket av blåhvite azulejos, Clérigos-tårnet reiser seg over takene og Sé-katedralen står på sin høyde.

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).
