All about Porto

This gorgeous city of hills and red rooftops represents a heady mix of history and good living. A visit to Porto is about feasting and fun, soaking up the atmosphere and the hazy beauty of a 1,000-year-old urban landscape dotted with colourful waterside mansions, as well as Baroque and Beaux Arts buildings that cling to the hillsides around the mouth of the river. Porto’s historic centre is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, whose standout buildings include the cathedral, many fine churches, and the Neoclassical Stock Exchange Palace; also a UNESCO site is the Monastery of Serra do Pilar, which overlooks the city.

There’s striking modern architecture, too, such as the Casa da Música cultural venue and the Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art, with a treetop walk and sculpture park. Evenings can be spent hanging out in the cool Baixa neighbourhood, and nibbling your way through the foodie Ribeiro district, where the double-deck-arched Dom Luís I Bridge crosses the Douro River.
