Traditional Porto

Traditional neighborhoods Porto scattered on the banks of the Douro River, with the harmony of its lines and its medieval urban structure, surprising given his busy business life, for its bustling outdoor markets during the day and its food and beverages that encourage nightlife.

It is composed of an intricate network of narrow, winding streets, porches and homes of several plants that are stacked next to each other, with tiled or painted walls with pastel colors, with extended clothes to dry on the balconies.

Beside the Ribeira, below the cathedral, the neighborhood O Barredo seems to have not been altered since the Middle Ages.

The railings of their homes hanging over the steep hill forming a maze of ancient streets and steep stairs.

Students usually meet at its northern limit in the gardens Cordoaria near the Torre dos Clerigos.
