MOST PHOTOGRAPHED SITES IN PORTUGAL #2 - CAIS DA RIBEIRA, PORTO


According to the website sightsmap.com, Portugal is one of the most photographed areas of the world.
We wondered if some of the photos are yours?

Located at the waterfront of Douro river and classified as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1996, Cais da Ribeira is a myriad of medieval narrow streets and alleyways, with old homes clustered in a chaotic order along side with bars and restaurants full of tourists.

From Cais da Ribeira you can also see the series of Port Wine houses across the river, as well as the attractive Cais de Gaia riverfront.

Testimonial: Cruise in Douro river

«The cruise was very good, good food, good landscapes. We ended up changing our Sunday lunch plans and went up to Gaia, visited the Sandeman Port Wine Cellar (I recommend), and had lunch at a restaurant by the river (A Transmontana, I think). Very Good! I thank you for your help. We got an excellent impression of you. You are now our reference at home for future trips.»
