Porto: First Travel Tips &amp; FAQs at a Glance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Exciting Facts &amp; Things Worth Knowing About Porto<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Porto, <strong>Portugal&#8217;s second-largest city<\/strong> after Lisbon, is often considered the country&#8217;s unofficial capital.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>With about 230,000 residents, Porto is the perfect size for a city trip. It&#8217;s big enough to offer impressive sights but small enough to reach most places (or rather almost everywhere) by foot.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The historic centre of Porto has been a <strong>UNESCO World Heritage Site<\/strong> since 1996. You&#8217;ll be greeted by a <strong>beautiful mosaic<\/strong> of narrow alleys, gigantic buildings, and, of course, the artistic azulejos \u2013 those blue and white tiles Portugal is so famous for.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Porto is <strong>quite hilly<\/strong>. Our tip: Make sure to pack comfortable shoes for your city trip. You&#8217;ll be climbing quite a few hills.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In Porto, finding your way around can be (at least in our experience) a bit of a challenge. Even after several days in the city, we still struggled to <strong>get our bearings and lay of the land<\/strong>. The sights-to-see are all rather scattered throughout the city. But don&#8217;t worry: With our tips and Google Maps, you&#8217;ll definitely find your way around.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How many days should I plan for Porto?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The top sights and attractions are all in the centre of Porto, which is relatively compact, so you can see a lot of the city in just <strong>three nights<\/strong>. That&#8217;s how long we stayed, and we highly recommend this duration for first-timers to Porto.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re short on time, a <strong>two-night<\/strong> stay can still give you a good first impression. And if you want to take your time, staying for <strong>four to five nights<\/strong> is ideal. This way, you can even squeeze in a day trip or two.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is Porto suitable for a trip with a baby or child?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>We travelled <strong>with a baby ourselves<\/strong> and can confidently say: yes, you can explore Porto with your family too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s important to note that because Porto is quite hilly, using a <strong>pram<\/strong> can be challenging (though not impossible). The cobblestone streets don&#8217;t make pushing a pram any easier. That&#8217;s why we opted for a <strong>baby carrier<\/strong> instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Want to know more about travelling in Portugal with a baby or child? Head over here for <strong>our detailed blog post<\/strong>: Travelling in Portugal with a Baby and Child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Bucket List for Porto: What can I experience in Porto?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For those who want the highlights, here&#8217;s a quick \u201cBest of Porto\u201d list for you. (You\u2019ll find detailed tips on these highlights and attractions throughout the blog post.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Stroll across the gigantic <strong>Ponte Dom Lu\u00eds I<\/strong> and admire the view of Porto from the other side. Wow!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Try the best <strong>Past\u00e9is de Nata<\/strong> in town at &#8220;Manteigaria&#8221;. So delicious!<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Marvel at Porto&#8217;s artistic **azulejos (**tiles), especially those in the famous railway station or the Igreja do Carmo.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Climb the <strong>Torre dos Cl\u00e9rigos<\/strong> and enjoy the view over Porto.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wander along the <strong>Douro riverfront<\/strong> at sunset in the lively Ribeira district.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Soak up the Harry Potter vibes at the world-famous <strong>Livraria Lello.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped

Porto Travel Guide: Top Attractions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ponte Dom Lu\u00eds I<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s start our Porto travel guide with the <strong>architectural highlight<\/strong> and one of the city&#8217;s most important attractions, the gigantic Ponte Dom Lu\u00eds I. The <strong>dimensions<\/strong> of the bridge are breathtaking: it&#8217;s about 385 meters long and 60 meters high. It&#8217;s only when you&#8217;re actually on the bridge that you realize just how high it is. Such a thrill!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking a stroll across the Ponte Dom Lu\u00eds I is an <strong>absolute must-do<\/strong> during your stay in Porto. You can reach the bridge in two ways: above (next to the metro) and below (alongside the cars). Our tip: You definitely get the best view of Porto from the upper level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fun Fact: on the other side of the bridge, you technically enter another city called <strong>Vila Nova de Gaia<\/strong>. From there, you can enjoy a beautiful view of Porto and the bridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our tip for the <strong>very best panorama<\/strong>: If you have enough time, we recommend the short walk and climb to the Mosteiro da Serra do Pilar. This is THE postcard scene at its finest!

It&#8217;s perched on a hill, slightly elevated. You\u2019d ideally combine your visit with a stroll across the Ponte Dom Lu\u00eds I, as it&#8217;s just a short walk from the cathedral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s not so much the interior of the cathedral that&#8217;s so impressive, but rather its <strong>monestary<\/strong>, which is adorned with beautiful azulejos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Climbing the <strong>tower<\/strong> is a must-do. When you reach the top, you&#8217;ll get an amazing view of Porto all around. On your way up, you&#8217;ll see some really beautiful azulejos too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Top tip:<\/strong> The square by the cathedral or right in front of it is another spot for a great view. We went there in the late afternoon and it was just perfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Admission<\/em>: 3 Euros for the Monestary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-Kreuzgang.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"46599\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-46599 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-Kreuzgang-1024x684.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-Kreuzgang-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-Kreuzgang-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-Kreuzgang-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-Kreuzgang.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Porto Cathedral cloister\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"46601\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"46601\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-46601 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-684x1024.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Cathedral Porto\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-Ausblick.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"46597\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"46597\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-46597 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-Ausblick-684x1024.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-Ausblick-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-Ausblick-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-Ausblick-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Kathedrale-Porto-Ausblick.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Cathedral Porto View\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">S\u00e3o Bento Railway Station<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Inside S\u00e3o Bento Railway Station one of Porto&#8217;s most famous attractions is hidden.

Sometimes you might read that Ribeira is <strong>Porto&#8217;s old town<\/strong>, although the old town actually extends over other districts as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The fact is, you&#8217;re in a <strong>very original neighbourhood<\/strong> here, with some extremely narrow and some very steep alleys, and countless houses in need of renovation. At many corners, Ribeira gives off a surprisingly <strong>shabby impression<\/strong>. And honestly, there&#8217;s not much to see.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Right by the <strong>riverside promenade<\/strong> (Cais da Ribeira), everything comes to life. You&#8217;ll find one restaurant after another, folks gathering for a drink after work, and street musicians adding a vibrant soundtrack to the scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In our opinion, the riverside promenade is a must-visit spot in Porto. Our Tip: If you enjoy a buzzing atmosphere, make sure to get there before sunset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped

legendary bookshop known as Livraria Lello. It&#8217;s considered one of the <strong>most beautiful bookstores in the world.<\/strong> And what&#8217;s more: It&#8217;s said that Joanne K. Rowling found inspiration here for <strong>Harry Potter<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You might have already guessed it: Yep, it&#8217;s (understandably) super busy here. Surprisingly, even in January, the bookstore was <strong>completely overrun<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re planning to visit Livraria Lello, make sure to <strong>book your ticket in advance<\/strong> online. They assign timeslots every half hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s the <strong>very best tip<\/strong> we can give you: Aim for the first or the last timeslot of the day. We went for the last one. Right before they close, you\u2019ll get the best shot of that iconic staircase without too many people in your way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Information and Tips for Visiting Livraria Lello at a Glance<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Admission<\/em>: 8 Euros (But you can use this amount as credit to buy books on-site \u2013 which is what we did.) <br><em>Book tickets<\/em>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.livrarialello.pt\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Livraria Lello<\/a> (official website) <br><em>Tip<\/em>: Book the very last timeslot!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-9\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Livraria-Lello-Porto.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"46554\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"46554\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-46554 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Livraria-Lello-Porto-684x1024.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Livraria-Lello-Porto-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Livraria-Lello-Porto-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Livraria-Lello-Porto-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Livraria-Lello-Porto.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Livraria Lello Porto\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Livraria-Lello.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"46556\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"46556\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-46556 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Livraria-Lello-684x1024.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Livraria-Lello-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Livraria-Lello-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Livraria-Lello-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Livraria-Lello.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Livraria Lello\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Buchhandlung-Lello-Porto.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"46552\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-46552 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Buchhandlung-Lello-Porto-1024x684.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Buchhandlung-Lello-Porto-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Buchhandlung-Lello-Porto-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Buchhandlung-Lello-Porto-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Buchhandlung-Lello-Porto.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Bookstore Lello Porto\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Igreja do Carmo<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Right next to Livraria Lello, you&#8217;ll find another must-see attraction in Porto: Igreja do Carmo.

Yet, you can snap even <strong>better photos<\/strong> here since the tiles reach closer to the ground than at Igreja do Carmo.

Although the <strong>historic market hall<\/strong> was established over a century ago, it only reopened in September 2022 following extensive renovations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the ground floor, you\u2019ll find an array of vendors selling everything from vegetables, fruits, and cheeses, to fish, meat, and even souvenirs. There are also spots to grab a quick snack or coffee, complete with a few standing tables.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s definitely worth heading upstairs\u2014not just for the restaurants, but to admire the beautifully restored <strong>historic staircase<\/strong>. The market is open <strong>daily except Sunday<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Our tip<\/strong>: Just beside the market hall is a branch of the famous Past\u00e9is de Nata bakery &#8220;Manteigaria&#8221;.

Viewpoints in Porto<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We love viewpoints \u2013 and luckily, Porto has plenty of them. In this section, we introduce you to the most beautiful viewpoints and share our tips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Torre dos Cl\u00e9rigos<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The 75-meter-high Torre dos Cl\u00e9rigos is one of <strong>Porto&#8217;s landmarks<\/strong> and, strictly speaking, one of the city&#8217;s most important attractions. However, we&#8217;ve included it in this chapter because the main highlight here is the <strong>fantastic panoramic view<\/strong> you enjoy from its top.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before you can enjoy this view, you&#8217;ll face a climb. Inside the church tower, there are <strong>over 200 steps<\/strong> to conquer. The higher you go, the steeper it gets. But don&#8217;t worry: We managed the climb ourselves with a baby in a carrier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you reach the top, two viewing platforms are waiting for you (you&#8217;ll need to climb a few extra steps to get to the second one). You can enjoy views in every direction\u2014the panorama is definitely worth it. Both platforms are quite narrow, which means the number of people allowed on the tower at any one time is limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Our tip:<\/strong> Entry tickets for the tower are issued in half-hour slots. For the best light, try to book one of the slots before sunset. You can do this online. (In the high season, it&#8217;s best to book a few days in advance.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Admission<\/em>: 8 Euros <em>Book tickets<\/em>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.torredosclerigos.pt\/en\/ticket-office\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Torre dos Cl\u00e9rigos<\/a> (official website)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-13\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"46541\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"46541\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-46541 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-684x1024.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Torre dos Clerigos\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--portrait\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:801\/1200;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-Porto.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"801\" data-pswp-height=\"1200\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"46539\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" data-id=\"46539\" width=\"801\" height=\"1200\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-46539 size-large is--portrait\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-Porto-684x1024.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-Porto-684x1024.jpg 684w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-Porto-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-Porto-768x1151.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-Porto.jpg 801w\" alt=\"Torre dos Clerigos Porto\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a class=\"pswp-gallery__trigger is--landscape\" style=\"--aspect-ratio:1200\/801;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-Ausblick.jpg\" data-pswp-width=\"1200\" data-pswp-height=\"801\"><img decoding=\"async\" id=\"46537\" sizeSlug=\"large\" linkDestination=\"none\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" class=\" lazyload wp-image-46537 size-large is--landscape\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" srcset=\"data:image\/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAAEAAAABCAQAAAC1HAwCAAAAC0lEQVR42mNkYAAAAAYAAjCB0C8AAAAASUVORK5CYII=\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-Ausblick-1024x684.jpg\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-Ausblick-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-Ausblick-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-Ausblick-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sommertage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Torre-dos-Clerigos-Ausblick.jpg 1200w\" alt=\"Torre dos Clerigos Ausblick\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Jardim do Morro<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Jardim do Morro is a kind of green space that you reach by walking across the gigantic Ponte Dom Lu\u00eds I and landing on the other side in the <strong>district of Vila Nova de Gaia.<\/strong> From here, you essentially enjoy the <strong>&#8220;signature&#8221; view<\/strong> of Porto&#8217;s skyline along with the bridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We caught the sunset here on a weekend, and as you can imagine, it was packed.

Culinary Travel Guide: Tips for Caf\u00e9s and Restaurants in Porto<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Porto can be quite overwhelming when it comes to food. It seems like there&#8217;s an eatery at every corner. Here are our favourites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Manteigaria<\/strong>: First things first. You shouldn&#8217;t leave Porto without trying the world-famous custard tarts &#8220;Past\u00e9is de Nata&#8221;. In our opinion, the very best ones are at Manteigaria. They have two locations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Nola Kitchen<\/strong>: A really nice caf\u00e9 for breakfast, brunch, or just a coffee in between. Here, you&#8217;ll find &#8220;hipster classics&#8221; like avocado toast and a\u00e7a\u00ed bowl, but also healthy lunch dishes. The place is quite small (spread over 2 levels) and seating is cozy, but we were among the first guests in the morning, so it was fine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cult of Pita:<\/strong> Our absolute insider tip for delicious takeaway or delivery (Ubereats). Here, you&#8217;ll find fantastic vegetarian dishes from the Middle East at very fair prices. If you like hummus, falafel, and the like, you&#8217;ll love it here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Gruta<\/strong>: Mentioned by Michelin, it\u2019s no surprise that you dine at a very high level here. The menu primarily features modern-inspired Portuguese cuisine, including a lot of fish and some vegetarian options. It&#8217;s on the pricey side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jardineiro<\/strong>: A vegan restaurant \u2013 perfect for a high-quality lunch or dinner! The seating is very cozy. The ambiance is somewhat reminiscent of a greenhouse. The service is very attentive without being intrusive. It&#8217;s on the pricey side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Caf\u00e9 Majestic:<\/strong> Probably Porto&#8217;s most legendary caf\u00e9 in Belle \u00c9poque style. The coffee house is very touristy and the prices are quite steep for Portugal. But the ambiance is truly something special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-15\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image

Porto Travel Guide: Our Hotel Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Still looking for the perfect hotel for your city trip to Porto? We have two recommendations that we can highly recommend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Option 1: Casa Cam\u00e9lia<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Our first recommendation is the charming <a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/pt\/casa-camelia-porto.en.html?aid=874507\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Casa Cam\u00e9lia<\/a>. This <strong>historic 18th-century building<\/strong> has been meticulously renovated and now offers nine cozy rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The entire property, including the rooms, is exceptionally <strong>stylish<\/strong>, unique, and aesthetically pleasing. High-quality materials and comfortable beds make for a delightful stay. A special feature is the glass pavilion in the garden where a delicious breakfast is served.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Casa Cam\u00e9lia is located just outside the busy center in the <strong>west of Porto&#8217;s old town<\/strong>. For example, you can walk to the Torre dos Cl\u00e9rigos in just 10 minutes. The only small drawback? There\u2019s no air conditioning. But it\u2019s still highly recommended!<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-affiliate\">\n      <div class=\"affiliate\">\n      <div class=\"affiliate-icon\">\n        <div>\n                      <svg class=\"svg-inline--fa fa-hotel\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\" data-prefix=\"fal\"\n                 data-icon=\"hotel\" role=\"img\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\">\n              <path fill=\"currentColor\"\n                    d=\"M320 96C320 78.33 334.3 64 352 64H384C401.7 64 416 78.33 416 96V128C416 145.7 401.7 160 384 160H352C334.3 160 320 145.7 320 128V96zM384 96H352V128H384V96zM272 64C289.7 64 304 78.33 304 96V128C304 145.7 289.7 160 272 160H240C222.3 160 208 145.7 208 128V96C208 78.33 222.3 64 240 64H272zM240 128H272V96H240V128zM208 224C208 206.3 222.3 192 240 192H272C289.7 192 304 206.3 304 224V256C304 273.7 289.7 288 272 288H240C222.3 288 208 273.7 208 256V224zM272 224H240V256H272V224zM384 192C401.7 192 416 206.3 416 224V256C416 273.7 401.7 288 384 288H352C334.3 288 320 273.7 320 256V224C320 206.3 334.3 192 352 192H384zM352 256H384V224H352V256zM96 96C96 78.33 110.3 64 128 64H160C177.7 64 192 78.33 192 96V128C192 145.7 177.7 160 160 160H128C110.3 160 96 145.7 96 128V96zM160 96H128V128H160V96zM160 192C177.7 192 192 206.3 192 224V256C192 273.7 177.7 288 160 288H128C110.3 288 96 273.7 96 256V224C96 206.3 110.3 192 128 192H160zM128 256H160V224H128V256zM173.8 379.9C167.2 374 166.6 363.9 172.5 357.3C193 334.4 222.8 320 256 320C289.2 320 318.1 334.4 339.5 357.3C345.4 363.9 344.8 374 338.2 379.9C331.6 385.8 321.5 385.3 315.6 378.7C300.1 362.3 279.7 352 256 352C232.3 352 211 362.3 196.4 378.7C190.5 385.3 180.4 385.8 173.8 379.9V379.9zM496 0C504.8 0 512 7.164 512 16C512 24.84 504.8 32 496 32H480V480H496C504.8 480 512 487.2 512 496C512 504.8 504.8 512 496 512H16C7.164 512 0 504.8 0 496C0 487.2 7.164 480 16 480H32V32H16C7.164 32 0 24.84 0 16C0 7.164 7.164 0 16 0H496zM256 416C247.2 416 240 423.2 240 432V480H272V432C272 423.2 264.8 416 256 416zM304 432V480H448V32H64V480H208V432C208 405.5 229.5 384 256 384C282.5 384 304 405.5 304 432z\"><\/path>\n            <\/svg>\n                  <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n      <div class=\"affiliate-body\">\n        <p><strong>You can book the accommodation here: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/pt\/casa-camelia-porto.en.html?aid=874507\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Casa Cam\u00e9lia<\/a><\/p>\n\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Option 2: Village by BOA<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Looking for something more urban and <strong>a bit more hip<\/strong>? Check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.booking.com\/hotel\/pt\/village-by-boa.en.html?aid=874507\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Village by BOA<\/a> apartments. This is another stylishly renovated historic 19th-century building. The <strong>Boho style<\/strong> is a consistent theme throughout the property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Every <strong>room<\/strong> features a well-equipped kitchen, which is perfect if you&#8217;re traveling with a baby like we did. However, we&#8217;d suggest the chic maisonette rooms for those without kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The apart-hotel is situated in the <strong>north of Porto&#8217;s old town<\/strong>, just a five-minute walk from Mercado do Bolh\u00e3o. Personally, we wouldn&#8217;t go for the breakfast again. You can find better value breakfasts around Porto. Other than that, we highly recommend staying here.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-affiliate\">\n      <div class=\"affiliate\">\n      <div class=\"affiliate-icon\">\n        <div>\n
