From sampling delicious traditional recipes to wandering the windy streets full of cafés and shops, to popping into art galleries, there are many things that will keep visitors happy. Here are our 10 suggestions for the top things to see and do.
Experience Livraria Lello
This bookstore is one of the most beautiful in the world and has become extra famous as one of JK Rowling’s favorite haunts when she lived in Porto (and began developing the Harry Potter series). There is no doubt that the Livraria Lello & Irmão, which has been in business since 1906, is one of Porto’s most popular and busiest landmarks; there is even a cover charge to enter. Centrally located, near the locals’ favorite Piolho Café and a block from Igreja do Carmo, it’s easy to find, but be prepared to stand in a line to enter.
Visit a wine cellar
Porto is a city famous for wine, and not only Port. Where Port is produced in the Douro Valley, Vinho Verde is made closer to Porto (and north of the city, too).
