Porto

Porto is with a population of about 250.000 is the largest city in Northern Portugal. In "Greater Porto", the metropolitan area, live even more than 1.7 million people. The historical center of Porto was proclaimed a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1996. Port wine is named after Porto, since the cellars of Vila Nova de Gaia on the southern banks of the river Douro are the centers for packaging, transport and export of the fortified wine. Some years ago I had been here for a couple of days before I started the "Camino Portugues" here. The small bars, that line the eastern side of the Avenida do Brasil in Porto, all offer perfect places, to relax, listen to the Atlantic, have a beer, watch the joggers and wait for the sunset.
