About Porto
Port is a city and a port located in the northwest of Portugal on the banks of Douro River near the Atlantic Ocean. The city is called the capital of Port wine, because Port wine production was once started in the valleys of the Douro River and was shipped down the river to the suburbs of Porto.
The Port has a stunning Old Town with cobblestone streets, beautiful homes, outdoor cafes, wineries, and a New Town with modern buildings, huge bridges, squares and bustling nightclubs. The most famous historical monuments are the Old Town are the Porto Cathedral, the Clerigos church and the church of St Francis. In Porto New Town, you will find spectacular bridges over the Douro River, including the Maria Pia Bridge (architect Gustav Eiffel) and the Luis I Bridge which is recognised as the symbol of the city.
