Guide to Porto

map
Lying along the Douro River Estuary, offering fantastic living conditions and a UNESCO recognised historic centre, Porto is the second largest city in Portugal, and has a total population of almost 1.3 million people living in its urban areas. Well known for its port wine, as a mercantile city and as a bustling commercial centre. Head to the Ribeira to see some quirky art galleries and museums, head upriver through the hilly landscape on a cruise, and don't miss the city's wine caves, with tours costing as little as 3 euros!
