Porto is a coastal city in the northwest of Portugal. Aka Oporto; a pretty harbour built around the Douro River and known for its stately bridges and production of port wine. Beautiful, ceramic tiles embellish the facades of many buildings as well as decorating benches, street signs and fountains. Typically blue and white with a splash of yellow they depict historical scenes, geometrical or floral designs that truly parade the Portuguese culture.
Porto is a heavenly setting to meander on a sunny afternoon. Soak up the cosmopolitan atmosphere and visit the trendy cafes that line the banks, partake in traditional, culinary delights such as salt cod balls and Portuguese custard tarts. Take advantage of the many wine tastings on offer and finish off with a tipple of port.
Felicidades!
