Porto

In Porto, the city on the Douro, dreamy alleys are just waiting to be discovered by you. Famous shopping streets, the oldest bookstore in Europe, the Stock Exchange Palace, the Ribeira old town district and the tallest bell tower Torre dos Clérigos await you, from which you can enjoy a breathtaking view over Porto. The city's historic houses often shine in a colorful coat of paint, the azulejos of the magnificent churches shine in their splendour, and there are plenty of hip restaurants, charming cafés and bars, as well as the urban art of street art. Walk across the double-decker wrought-iron bridge, which is reminiscent of the Eiffel Tower, or float weightlessly over the port wine cellars of Vila Nova de Gaia on the Teleférico de Gaia, where you must do a port wine tasting. Sit down in one of the cafés, look out over the water and enjoy what is probably the most beautiful view of the city skyline. To relax, you can also take the historic train to the beach for a day and in the evening you can wander through the clubs and bars in the center. Variety is provided. Porto demonstrates style and skill no matter where you look.
