While it is a must to visit Lisbon and Fatima when traveling to Portugal, you should also make another stop in Ribeira. While there are many things to do in Porto, one should check out Ribeira, the most picturesque neighborhood in Porto. Immerse yourself in a medieval era as you walk past its alleys, streets and buildings. The first point of interest that you need to visit is none other than the Rio Douro. Enjoy the tranquil atmosphere as you watch the fishing boats come and go on the river and admire the colorful buildings along the shore.
Next, you can move on to the next attraction, which is Cais da Ribeira. The most outstanding thing you will see here is the Ponte Dom Luis I Bridge. An interesting fact about this bridge is that it was a student who designed it and it was built in 1886. You can have a walk on the pedestrian path of the bridge and let the magnificent views of Ribeira take your breath away. Cais da Ribeira also features a myriad of restaurants and shops, among others. You should spend some time there to relax and unwind. Keep on reading to learn more about the best Airbnbs in Ribeira, Porto, Portugal.
