Livraria Lello is truly stunning; a magical place that feels straight out of a Harry Potter scene. The iconic staircase, stained glass ceiling, and rich wooden details are breathtaking, and it’s easy to see why it inspired J.K. Rowling during her time in Porto.However, the experience is far too crowded. The space is quite small, yet large groups are allowed in at once, making it difficult to move, enjoy the architecture, or take decent photos.It’s interesting but overpriced for what you get, unless they start limiting the number of visitors per time slot.Tip: Book online in advance and go early if you want a slightly calmer experience.

The Porto Cathedral is located at a higher point in Porto, about 350 meters from São Bento Station, with a slight slope. But the river views are quite beautiful when you go up to Yingfan.

Clérigos Tower is one of Porto’s must-sees. climb to the top for amazing 360° city views. The stairs are a bit narrow but totally worth it!

I really love Porto, and I also like walking on the Dom Luis I Bridge. This bridge is really special, with cars running underneath and trains running above, and there is also space for pedestrians to walk next to the railway.

Porto Sao Bento Railway Station, opened in 1916, is a transportation hub that combines history and art in the center of Porto, Portugal, and is famous for its unique tile murals. The station hall is decorated with 20,000 hand-painted tiles on the walls, covering the history of Portugal, transportation history and royal life. The tiles are mainly blue and white, inspired by Chinese blue and white porcelain, and use Portugal's unique glaze firing process. ‌‌ On site, the blue tile painting is still well preserved.

The view from here is amazing! You can view it from both under and above the bridge, and both offer different views so I recommend it. I especially recommend taking the metro to the top to enjoy the view!

Portugal - Porto - Church of the Holy Spirit The poetry of blue and white porcelain and the purity of faith The Church of the Holy Spirit (Capela das Almas) in Porto is famous for its iconic blue and white porcelain facade and is an artistic treasure that cannot be ignored in the old town of Porto. Although the church was built in the early 20th century, it carries the historical and cultural memory of Portugal in the 18th century tile art style. The Church of the Holy Spirit with a blue and white porcelain facade is inlaid with 11,000 blue and white tiles. These tiles are painted with 18th-century techniques and depict the life of saints and religious scenes. The tiles in the sun have a cold blue and white luster, which contrasts sharply with the red tile roofs of the old town of Porto, like a flowing religious painting.

Mesmerising piece of history and design. There’s a lot to see for €1 - the church is gorgeous but the museum section is quite small. It has a calming and healing energy. ✨

This is one of the century-old wineries on the Douro River. There are countless wineries along the river. The winery runs its own restaurant across the street and sells its wines to tourists passing by. You can taste them. This winery provides one-stop service, from the lobby to the exhibition hall, and there are all kinds of introductions inside. Finally, we go to the second floor to taste three glasses of wine. It's too sweet for me...
