About Porto
Porto is one of the last undiscovered European metropolises,but is increasing in popularity.
This is an ancient port steeped in history and tradition. It is a highly atmospheric place that has become known for its monuments by renowned architects (Gustave Eiffel's Dona Maria Bridge, Nicolau Nasoni's Clerigos Tower, Rem Koolhaas' Casa da Musica, or Siza Vieira's Serralves Museum),

Marking the end of the port wine trail, Pinhao is a typical rustic Douro town. Of interest is the railway station, decorated with azulejos, or glazed tile. From here, one can see the dramatic vine-clad terraces, dotted with white quintas where the wine is produced and bottled.
The last Portuguese village along the Douro, BARCA D'ALVA is less than 2km from the Spanish border. Overlooked by mountains on all sides, and on a placid bend in the Rio Douro, it's a curious spot - on one hand, a long-abandoned railway line and a row of elderly cottages; on the other, a sparkling quayside with huge pontoons to accommodate the large Douro cruisers which disgorge passengers for a quick souvenir hunt. A few places soak up any passing trade, including the Bago d'Ouro, an upmarket deli and restaurant with some simple river-facing rooms available. In the end, it's the drive here, from north or south, that really warrants the trip, through beautifully sculpted Douro terraces of olives and vines, with sweeping views across the hills and into the river gorge.
