How does a relaxing trip down memory lane sound to you? Best place to go to is the enigmatic Ribeira district in Porto. This is a beautiful, scenic location that one visits for the sheer experience of wonder and amazement. We highly recommend spending the day at this popular tourist attraction. Located on the riverbanks of the Douro in Porto, it is one of the most energetic and gorgeous districts. In its former years, the quayside used to be bustling with people and cargo ships and continues to attract lots of people, mainly tourists and locals enjoying the ambience and vibe of the town. A view to die for, this part of the town charming during the day and eclectic at night is perfect for those long days away from home. In the day, you can feast your eyes on the beautiful and colourful facades of the buildings, the narrow cobblestoned streets that are lined with small eateries and bars are great places to refuel yourself. Don't miss tasting the classic Portuguese food including grilled sardines. This area comes alive at night and is an ideal place to spend an evening.
In 1996, it was also included in UNESCO’s list of World Heritage sites.
It is 314.2 km away from the city centre. Board the Porto metro to reach the old town at ease. The metro card charges are 3, 5, 10 or 20€.
There is a number of boats that carry passengers to Duoro river. The cost of the boat trip keeps changing.
You can visit the city whenever you want to. It is recommended to visit on Weekdays to avoid rush there.
