Portugal - Historic Centre of Oporto, Luiz I Bridge and Monastery of Serra do Pilar
"Ribeira"
D. Luiz I Bridge
St. Ildefonso Church
The city of Oporto, built along the hillsides overlooking the mouth of
the Douro river, is an outstanding urban landscape with a 2,000-year
history. Its continuous growth, linked to the sea (the Romans gave it
the name Portus, or port), can be seen in the many and varied monuments,
from the cathedral with its Romanesque choir, to the neoclassical Stock
Exchange and the typically Portuguese Manueline-style Church of Santa
Clara.
