Porto, often recognised by its romantic moniker, Oporto, is Portugal's second city and the heart of the admired Porto District. Nestling along the Douro River estuary, this global city is not only one of Europe's oldest centres but it's also the home to a World Heritage Site; the historic centre, the grandeur of the Luiz I Bridge and the awe-inspiring beauty of the Monastery of Serra do Pilar.

The city's name, meaning "the harbour", interweaves its identity with its historical background and the iconic port wine that the city exports globally. You're never too far from a glass of the rich, sweet fortified wine or a story from the city's fascinating past, including its Celtic origins, Roman occupation, and periods of Moorish control.

Porto's pride extends to its cultural heritage, renowned architectural excellence, such as the Porto Cathedral and the Stock Exchange Palace, and the liberal political dynamism echoing through its bustling streets. Dominated by a female population, the city maintains a warm, Mediterranean climate, offering a glimpse of Portuguese lifestyle at its finest.
