6 things to do in Porto
Porto is a city that cannot really miss in the list of places to see of every traveler. Once you arrive it will be easy to understand why. Here are 6 things to do in Porto:1- Get on the tram number 22 to tour the centre
It is one of the most picturesque and is usually frequented by tourists. However, the circular route from Rua de Caro to Batahlha is very bucolic. At present there are three tram lines in Porto, all of them with a purely tourist function.
2- Go by boat along the Duero River
Six bridges connect the two banks of the river. The most charming are the ravelos, traditional in the city, which were traditionally used to carry the wine barrels from the vineyards to Vila Nova de Gaia.
What was once a ceramics and porcelain shop - to which it owes its striking art nouveau facade full of tiles - is today an establishment where you can find local products of the highest quality: cheeses, sausages, wines from different port cellars...
3- Enjoy the local gastronomic delights in the charming Pérola do Bolhao
4- Shopping along Rua Santa Catarina
