Spanning the mouth of the Douro River, the coastal city of Porto is a fabulous city to explore, with its Baroque churches, village-style plazas, soaring bell-towers, and narrow cobbled lanes crammed with fascinating architecture. Stroll through the Ribeira district, Porto's old town, where local inhabitants still mingle in the tiny little bars and eateries. With everything from Michelin Star restaurants to tiny holes in the wall serving traditional Portuguese fare, Porto is a must-visit city for food and wine lovers. Watching the sun go down from one of the city's many rooftop bars, or sampling Porto's world famous Port wine in one of its many historic wine cellars, is an experience not to be missed.
