“Invicta”, the best way is undoubtedly by staying
at the Pestana Vintage Porto Hotel & World Heritage
Site. Created from the rebuilding of two blocks of
buildings dating back to the sixteenth, seventeenth
and eighteenth centuries, it is considered a World
Heritage Site by virtue of the careful conservation
of the buildings’ original features. Overlooking the

Távora, evoking the 50s, mixed with contemporary
illustrations and retro reinterpretations of polaroids.

known for the bohemian life and the nocturnal
appeal. Besides the traditional precautions, the
Pestana Vintage Porto has some closed windows and
double insulation on the windows, to ensure you can
make the most of the hours of rest when you’re in

Porto is the origin of Portugal’s name. Porto is one of the oldest Portuguese
cities, and is also known as “Cidade Invicta”, because it has never been defeated in battle by invading forces. The Historic Centre of Porto was declared a World Heritage in 1996. In 2012, Porto was distinguished as the Best European Destination. The city is known worldwide for its Port Wine, and for its old and contemporary architecture, and for the five bridges that define the historical epochs of the city. Next to the river and to the sea, Porto is a city of contrasts in which medieval arcades coexist with buildings such as the “Casa de Música”. It is a captivating city, the character and the hospitality of its inhabitants invite one to visit it again and again.
OUT
The “Casa da Música” is located at the junction of the Rotunda and the Avenida da Boavista – a masterpiece of the Dutch architect Rem Koolhas. It is one of the most
important musical institutions in the country and no visitor should miss it. Following the Avenida da Boavista, the
points of interest succeed one another: from the coffee bars and the terraces to the small palaces that dominate
the second half of this avenue.
Halfway through, you can visit the Contemporary Art Museum of the Serralves Foundation, a work by the architect Siza Vieira, and spend some time in the
magnificent gardens of the “Casa da Serralves”. From here, you can opt to descend to the sea through the Avenida
Marechal Gomes da Costa, or take the Avenida da Boavista, crossing the immense city park, which leads to the sand of the “Castelo do Queijo” beach. Whatever your choice
is, a wonderful sunset awaits you at any of the numerous beaches of the Foz do Douro.
OUT
TO DOFROM BOAVISTA TO FOZ
Embedded in the meanders of the Douro River and the traces of the city’s wall, the “Ribeira do Porto”
invites one to take a walk to discover the narrow streets, stairs and small avenues in which it is still possible to sense the authenticity of the inhabitants, the old houses and the
small shops and restaurants, in a mosaic of sounds and smells which visitors will discover while they ascend
the hill towards the Cathedral.
It is said that the best views of Porto can be enjoyed from the “Ribeira de Gaia” and the “Serra do Pilar”
Viewpoint. And it is true. Therefore, you should cross the bridge that is already one of the city’s classic postcard
sceneries the Dom Luís Bridge, and enjoy the view before venturing into the succession of Port Wine Caves with
their respective tastings. If you prefer something different, accept the invitation of a boat trip on the Douro Region
under the five bridges or beyond. In any case, it is an excellent option for spendingvan afternoon
or some days of relaxation on the Douro River.

The “Torre dos Clérigos” (Tower of Clerics) is an icon of the city - a baroque tower by Nicolau Nasoni. It is the starting point to discover many other nearby monuments. At the
end of the road, the S. Bento Station is famous for its panels with historic glazedtiles. Close to it are the “cadeia
da Relação” (where the Portuguese Centre of Photography is located) and the S. Bento da Vitória Monastery.
Descending the road, the Stock Exchange Palace and the “Ordem Terceira de S. Francisco”, where visitors can admire
paintings, sculptures, jewelry and furniture. Back to Cordoaria, the Lello Library and the Carmo and
Carmelitas churches will attract the traveler’s attention. Close to the “Pena Ventosa”, the Cathedral, the Santa
Clara Convent and the “Fernandina” City Wall are the most distinctive features. There is so much more to see within
a range of only a few kilometers by foot: The National Soares dos Reis Museum, the Port Wine Museum
and the “Casa do Infante”.

WORLD HERITAGE
With sun, fog or even with rain, Porto must be visited on foot. Despite the ascents and descents, walking around
has compensations, with viewpoints and promontories with astonishing panoramic views and different
perspectives of the city, the river, the buildings or the sea. Take a cable car ride at the Ribeira de Gaia and climb to the Serra do Pilar or take the Guindais Funicular and save the
climb from Ribeira to Batalha. Any of these two routes will offer you the most beautiful views onto the river or the
Foz. If you prefer the shadows and the freshness of nature, Porto will offer you its generous parks and romantic
gardens. Follow the Gardens of Cordoaria, famous for its statues, until you reach the Gardens of the Crystal Palace
and from there go to the Botanical Garden in Campo Alegre, and the Pastelaria Park and finally rest in the Parque
da Cidade but only after having reached the sea.

The wealth of Porto’s Historic Centre lies in the fact that it still retains the traces of all who have passed by. From the Phoenicians
to the Romans, from antique to modern times, civilizations
followed one another, and each one left a precious legacy
that nowadays constitutes a World Heritage.
Here we find medieval trails, Renaissance squares, baroque,
Gothic and neoclassical monumental complexes,
art nouveau façades and true people inviting you to submerge
yourself in the streets of this city.

To the endless varieties of codfish recipes Porto has added its own dish: Codfish ”Gomes de Sá” Style. Here, the octopus is enjoyed fried, in fillets, and with
“malandrinho” rice. The Douro table wines are excellent, but during the meal, there will be always a moment for a Port Wine, whether as aperitif or during the dessert. When taking part in a Port Wine tasting at the caves,
never forget to buy a bottle.
During your stay, there should always be a moment to taste the traditional “Francesinha”, the recipe which was
created by a Portuguese emigrant in France. He prepared a secret sauce and conquered the palate and the heart
of an entire city. A good “Francesinha” consists on a good loaf of bread stuffed with smoked meats and topped with
a smooth melted cheese. Some include eggs and accompany it with French fries. The result is always
a full meal that should be enjoyed with some time and in good company. It is an exclusive dish of Porto
and an invitation to socialize.
