Best things to do in Porto

About Porto 

Porto is the second-largest city in Portugal. Located at its center is the Praca da Liberdade; it’s a large square, guarded by the statue of King Dom Pedro the fourth. Visit the Baroque Church in Porto if you wish to emanate peace and tranquility. Porto has always been a city of the commoners. The nobility did not have a residence here and could not build palaces in the vicinities of Porto. 

The baroque style architecture is evident all around Porto; you will find it engulfed in ancient monasteries, churches, and Sao Bento Train station. The train station has huge well-maintained arts illustrations that are astoundingly articulate and life-like. Moreover, you can also enjoy the Ponte Dom Luis in the tidal areas of Porto. An iron arch bridge that covers the sublime river Douro is a sight that you do not want to miss. 

Porto is home to many catholic statues of saints that protrude the deep religious beliefs of the people. Porto is also the ultimate spot for wine enthusiasts, and Vila Nova de Gaia is the head office of the thriving port wine industry of Porto. It is here that the ships carrying the world-famous port wine start their sail to other countries. Furthermore, look forward to monasteries that have overwhelming crafted designs once you set foot in Porto.
