Portugal's second largest city is constantly being praised for its architecture, landscapes and delicacies. Still not sure? Book a flight to Porto and...

Savour that unique taste of Port 

The city's baroque masterpiece is Clérigos Tower, which is there to be admired from top to bottom. It's worth climbing the 240 steps to be rewarded with a panoramic view of the River Douro. The Serralves museum and its garden are more modern but equally irresistible. And there are always the port lodges where you can taste the wine and learn about its history.

Have fun to the sound of great music 

After savouring a traditional francesinha, it's time to try out Porto's exciting nightlife. The riverside Ribeira area and Foz are both points of call. Casa da Música is ideal for fans of more eclectic music. The building and its auditoriums are a treasure of modern architecture.
