Great view over Porto. Since 1880’s it’s one of the symbols of the city. Walk the lower bridge to visit the Port wine cellars or cross the upper bridge by ‘metro’ to visit the monastery at Serra do Pilar.

Walked across this bridge to Oporto and it gave some amazing views. decaying roofs, feral cats playing, peoples homes and gardens from a roof top perspective, views of the river and boats/ships. Trams travelling along ferrying people around. Very pleasant walk into the city locks...More

Lovely to see and a great feeling to walk across! I fully recommend the visit. Both sides of the bridge, Ribiera and Gaia, are also quite enchanting!

You can't miss the bridge once you are in the city center. It is worth seeing it by night and by day. Try to walk on the top and avoid the trams.

The views from the bridge are super; you get to see both banks of the river and you also get to take in the history of the bridge and the designing of it. By whatever method you use the visit/trip is well worth it!

The well-known Porto wine, hence the name of the city, exists in white or red and there are several brands that are excellent.
