Located in the middle of the Algarve, Porto is Portugal’s second largest city and home to many of Portugal’s most important exports. It’s where port wine was first stored, where travelers can find the best pottery in Portugal, and home to some of the best seafood markets in the country. Porto’s historic city center is an UNESCO World Heritage Site and arguably one of the most beautiful cities in Portugal. Wine cellars are lined up along the river banks and restaurants and bars are strategically placed along the riverfront.
Walk through the city center and pay close attention to Porto’s buildings. They may look faded, but their colored tiles and murals add to their authentic beauty. Exquisite hand-painted tiles can be found on church walls and inside many of Porto’s buildings. Travelers in the UK can book direct flights to Porto, but many international travelers will fly to neighboring Faro and drive to Porto.
