With a Mannerist style, the Church has a Latin cross plan and a grandiose façade with three floors, one of them baroque and the other two in renaissance style.

5. The Pinhão Railway Station, on the Douro line, was built in the 19th century and is a must visit for anyone visiting the Douro region. In 1937 the station received the panels of tiles that gave it notoriety and turned it into the most beautiful Railway Station of the Douro. These, in a total of about 3047 tiles, were produced in Aleluia Cerâmicas (Fábrica Aleluia) by J. Oliveira, an artist who also decorated other Portuguese stations.

About Porto

Porto rasar ner för branta kullar till Douro, en granitstad av kaklade kyrkor, vinkällare vid floden och portvin som mognar på andra sidan vattnet.

Stadsdelen Ribeira kantar flodstranden med färgglada hus, caféer och båtar, en del av ett Unesco-skyddat gammalt centrum under järnbågarna på Dom Luís I-bron. Ovanför är stationshallen São Bento täckt av blåvita azulejos, tornet Clérigos reser sig över taken och Sé-katedralen står på sin kulle.

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).
