Porto, Portugal 🇵🇹
Some places feel like a postcard.
Others feel like a story unfolding as you walk.
Porto is the second one.
Built along the banks of the Douro River, Porto spills downhill in layers — terracotta rooftops, tiled churches, iron bridges, and narrow streets that smell faintly of coffee and wine. It’s gritty in the best way. Beautiful without being polished. And endlessly photogenic. This is a city meant to be explored slowly.
🌊 The Heart of Porto
Start near the river in Ribeira, where colorful buildings lean toward the water and time feels optional. Cross the Dom Luís I Bridge for sweeping views that stop you mid-step.
🍷 Beyond the City: The Douro Valley
Follow the river inland and Porto quietly hands you one of Europe’s most stunning landscapes: the Douro Valley. Terraced vineyards rise steeply from the river, shaped by hand over centuries. This is where port wine is born — and where long lunches, slow sips, and golden afternoons are practically mandatory.
Happy Travels!
