August is very close and you still haven't decided where to travel? What do you think if we take a short tour of one of the most beautiful cities in Portugal, I present to you the magical and ancient city of Porto, it is a bit difficult to describe that feeling of walking through streets that are more than a thousand years old, Porto is the second most important city in the country and has many interesting tourist sites to visit I will show you some of them!🚙🧭😱
"The historic center of Porto is a World Heritage Site"👨🏫🧭
The best city in Portugal❤🧭
Cais da ribera🛺🧭
More than 300kg of gold inside the church💛
Esta muy cerca el mes de agosto y aun no te decides hacia donde viajar? que te parece si hacemos un pequeño recorrido a una de las ciudades mas lindas de Portugal te presento la magica y antigua ciudad de Porto, es un poco dificil de describir esa sensacion de caminar por calles que tienen mas de mil años de antiguedad, Porto es la segunda ciudad mas importante del pais y tiene muchos sitios turisticos interesantes para conocer te mostrare alguno de ellos! 🌲🌳🌅🌄🌆
A little impromptu trip🙇🌍/ Un pequeño viaje improvisado🚩⛵🧭
I only had one day to visit and get to know the largest number of tourist sites so I had to improvise a lot, it is not my first visit to the city and I already know some popular sites such as: (The Crystal Palace, the Fernandina Wall, the main park among others). But back then I couldn't visit the center and today I came to complete my experience in this beautiful and historic city, firstly I agreed to not drive around with my vehicle, now in summer it's chaos and it's hard to find parking! So I travel by public transport! public transport in portugal is cheap and you can save a lot of money if you stay in a hotel in the center! Of course that means paying a minimum of 90 euros per day!🤔😮🤑
Solo disponia de un dia para visitar y conocer la mayor cantidad de sitios turisticos asi que tuve que improvisar bastante, no es mi primera visita a la ciudad y ya conozco algunos sitios populares como por ejemplo: (El palacio de cristal, la muralha fernandina, el parque principal entre otros). Pero en aquel entonces no pude recorrer el centro y hoy vine para completar mi experiencia en esta hermosa e historica ciudad, primeramente accedi por no pasear con mi vehiculo, ahora en verano es un caos y dificil encontrar estacionamiento! asi que me desplace en transporte publico! el transporte publico en portugal es economico y puedes ahorrar mucho dinero si te hospedas en un hotel en el centro! claro eso significa pagar minimo 90 euros por dia!💵💸
I know Lisbon like the back of my hand and they are totally different environments, Lisbon has a "more sophisticated, modern style" but Porto is the opposite, it is a city with very old colorful houses, and very active at night, it is one of those cities where there are more beautiful spaces under the moonlight than in the day!😲✨🌆
Conozco Lisboa como la palma de mi mano y son ambientes totalmente diferente, Lisboa tiene un "estilo mas sofisticado, moderno" pero Porto es lo Opuesto, es una ciudad con casas muy antigua colorida, y muy activa en las noches, es de aquellas ciudades donde hay espacios mas bonitos bajo la luz de la luna que en el dia! 🧭✨⛵
The Luiz I Bridge🙇🌍/ Puente Luis I🚩⛵🧭
I think that all tourists who come to Porto have to take a "mandatory" photo under the Luiz I bridge, and it is one of the iconic structures of the city, this bridge was built at the end of the 18th century when the city began to modernize, A geographical aspect that stands out in Porto is that the Douro River divides the city center into two sections, therefore the city has to offer you many activities here on the river, from kayaking to traveling on private boats! The main function of the Bridge is to link the city with Gaia, another Portuguese coastal city known for its famous beaches!🚩🌍🌅
Creo que todos los turistas que vienen a Porto tienen que tomarse una foto "obligatoriamente" bajo el puente Luiz I, y es una de las estructuras iconicas de la ciudad, este puente tuvo su construccion finales del siglo 18 cuando la ciudad comenzaba a modernizarse, un aspecto geografico que destaca en Porto es que el Rio Duero divide en dos secciones el centro de la ciudad, por tanto la ciudad tiene para ofrecerte muchas actividades acuaticas en el rio, desde pasear en kayak hasta viajar en barcos privados! la principal funcion del Puente es unir la ciudad con Gaia otra ciudad costera portuguesa conocida por sus famosas playas con Porto!🚙🛺🚌🚎
I have to admit that the people who live in the city of Porto are very kind, cordial people and are always willing to help you, so don't be afraid to ask for advice or directions! in lisbon people are a little "less patient", and the north has always been known for the personality of its inhabitants! many Portuguese dream of living their old age in Porto! I'm not a fan of cold so it's not a city for me xD😅✨🌆
Tengo que reconocer que las personas que viven en la ciudad de Porto son gente muy amables, cordiales y siempre estan dispuesto a ayudarte, por tanto no tengas miedo en pedir consejos o direcciones! en lisboa las personas son un poco "menos pacientes", y el norte ha sido siempre conocido por la personalidad de sus pobladores! muchos portugueses sueñan con vivir su vejez en Porto! yo no soy fan del frio asi que no es una ciudad para mi gusto xD🧭🤣✨⛵
The food here in Porto is cheap, I dare to say that it is cheaper than in the capital of the country, for example, have lunch with a drink included and pay only 8 euros, something very cheap and good! Port wine is one of the best in the country so you can't miss a wine tasting experience here in the city! regarding the weather, for example now in summer the weather is very cool, Porto is a cold city in winter so if you are looking for warmth you have to go to the south in algarve! I have to point out that when you walk under the bridge you see many street artists adorning the streets and we see young talent in all its splendor!😁😁
La comida aqui en Porto es economica me atrevo a decir que es mas barata que en la capital del pais, por ejemplo almorce con bebida incluida y pague solo 8 euros, algo muy economico y bueno! el vino de Porto es uno de los mejores del pais asi que no puedes perderte una experiencia catando vino aqui en la ciudad! con respecto al clima, por ejemplo ahora en verano el clima es muy fresco, Porto es una ciudad fria en invierno asi que si buscas calor tienes que ir al sur en algarve! tengo que resaltar que cuando caminas bajo el puente ves muchos artistas callejeros adornando las calles y vemos el talento juvenil en todo su esplendor!🥘🍲🎭🎢🎡
Nice colorful streets🙇🌍/ Lindas calles coloridas🚩⛵🧭
Another aspect that I love about the city is its very clean, organized and colorful streets! the city is too safe and you can walk without worrying at any time! You can also pay for some small tours and visit the most historic side of the city, including several churches. My intention is to visit the Porto Cathedral, which has some very famous catacombs! or you can just pay one euro and use the tram and take an air tour!📚🍍
Otro aspecto que amo de la ciudad son sus calles muy limpias, organizadas y coloridas! la ciudad es demasiado segura y puedes caminar sin preocuparte a cualquier hora! ademas puedes pagar algunos pequeños tour y recorrer el lado mas historico de la ciudad incluyendo varias iglesias, mi intencion es conocer la catedral de Porto que tiene unas catatumbas muy famosas! o simplemente puedes pagar un euro y usar el tranvia y hacer un recorrido aereo!🛺🚎
towards the center of the city we can find some beautiful churches including its cathedral, also as you can see in the photos there is a beautiful square where in its surroundings an old and beautiful building stands out, which is the "porto stock market", with Over time, the municipal chamber has maintained the old structure of the city and does not allow its inhabitants to make modifications to their houses to maintain the original city.😅✨🌆
hacia el centro de la ciudad podemos encontrarnos con algunas iglesias hermosas incluyendo su catedral, tambien como puedes ver en las fotos esta una linda plaza donde en sus alrededores se destaca un antiguo y lindo edificio que es la "bolsa de valores de Porto", con el tiempo la camara municipal ha mantenido la estructura antigua de la ciudad y no permite a sus habitantes hacer modificaciones en sus casas para mantener la ciudad original🧭🤣✨⛵
The city has many recreational parks that are filled with tourists in the summer! Here people can socialize, play with their pets or enjoy some coffee, for example I visited the famous park (Parque das Virtues) it is very popular because it is at the top of the city and you have a nice view of the river and many colorful city hotels😱🌲🌳
La ciudad tiene muchos parques recreacionales que en verano se llenan de turistas! aqui las personas pueden socializar, jugar con sus mascotas o disfrutar de un cafe, por ejemplo yo visite el famoso parque (Parque das virtudes) es muy visitado porque esta en lo mas alto de la ciudad y tienes una linda vista hacia el rio y muchos hoteles coloridos de la ciudad☕⛲⛲
Here take a short walk through the street "Cais da ribeira" which is one of the oldest streets in Porto, in reality it is a "square" and mentions were already made in letters of the kings in the 13th century long before the era of discoveries! here there are many restaurants specialized in sea delicacies🎉🎊⛲🍤
Aqui realice un pequeño paseo por la calle "Cais da ribeira" que es una de las calles mas antiguas de Porto en realidad es una "plaza" y ya se hacia mencion en cartas de los reyes en el siglo 13 mucho antes de la era de los descubrimientos! aqui hay muchos restaurantes especializados en delicias de mar🦐🦞🦀🐠🐟
Sao Francisco Church and Museum🙇🌍/ Iglesia y museo Sao francisco🚩⛵🧭
I think this is the most visited church in Porto, it was built in 1245, it has a great influence of architectures that were integrated over the centuries, starting from: (Romantic until ending with the baroque) It has a very particular history and it is that it came At one point it was closed for "masses" since the people who lived in the surroundings were very poor and had no way of getting in to "maintain their large expenses" there are more than 300 kilos of gold invested here! and when you enter you can not photograph😲✨🌆
Esta creo que es la iglesia mas visitada de Porto fue construida en 1245 tiene una gran influencia de arquitecturas que fueron integradas con el pasar de siglos, comenzando desde el: (Romantico hasta terminar con el barroco) tiene una historia muy particular y es que llego un momento que fue cerrada para las "misas" ya que las personas que vivian a los alrededores eran muy pobres y no tenian como ingresar para "mantener sus grandes gastos" hay mas de 300kilos de oro invertidos aqui! y cuando entras no puedes fotografiar🧭✨⛵
This was the most luxurious part of the church but I still needed to see the bizarre part and that is that the church has an underground area that hides a series of catacombs where noble people were buried!😮😲
Esta era la parte mas lujosa de la iglesia pero aun me faltaba ver la parte bizarra y es que la iglesia tiene un area subterranea que esconde una serie de catatumbas donde se enterraban personas de la noblesa!😨😨
catacombs🙇🌍/ Catatumbas🚩⛵🧭
These are the things that Porto has to offer you! It is a journey of history to know how the ancient cults of the inhabitants of the city were, many important people are buried here! and then an underground area where there are thousands of human bones👁🦴🦴
Estas son las cosas que Porto tiene para ofrecerte! es un viaje de historia para conocer como eran los cultos antiguos de los pobladores de la ciudad, aqui estan sepultadas muchas personas importantes! y luego un area subterranea donde hay miles de huesos humanos💀
Sao Pedro Miragaia Church🙇🌍/ Igreja de São Pedro de Miragaia🚩⛵🧭
Here we visit another church that dates back to the 14th century, despite being much newer than the rest of the other churches, it also has a nice history and that is that this area was previously a "land of fishermen", it has an intimate relationship with "San Pedro" a biblical fisherman character.😮
Aqui visitamos otra iglesia que remonta del siglo 14 apesar de ser mucho mas nueva que el resto de las otras iglesias tambien tiene una linda historia y es que esta zona anteriormente era una "tierra de pescadores", tiene una intima relacion con "San Pedro" un personaje pescador biblico👳♂️🧔.
It was a nice experience to get to know some places of tourist interest here in the city, I liked that it was a very cheap tour, I did not spend more than 25 euros to eat and enter all these beautiful places! I think that to visit Porto completely it should be about 5 days! so you have a mini vacation to get to know the most beautiful city in Portugal!🚩🏆
Fue una linda experiencia poder conocer algunos sitios de interes turistico aqui en la ciudad, me gusto que fue un paseo muy economico no gaste mas de 25 euros para comer y entrar en todos estos hermosos lugares! creo que para visitar Porto completo deben ser unos 5 dias! asi que tienes unas mini vacaciones para conocer la ciudad mas linda de Portugal!🏰🏯🌉

Amazing is all I can say! Stunning photographs of a stunning place! These old and massive churches always amaze me. Here where I live we have only small and modern churches/buildings. Nothing compared to those monuments!
And not to talk about all the history, you are so lucky to visit there!
I would love to drink some port on one of those streets. It looks so nice.
Thank you so much for taking me with on this virtual tour! What a fascinating town.
Thanks for the invitation to visit Porto and for the great photos. I might visit it next year :)
