Clark and Kim from To Uncertainty and Beyond capture Porto, Portugal. I was also in Porto this summer so expect a post soon on this enchanting, can’t quite put your finger on it, city. In the mean time, enjoy Clark and Kim’s moments with Porto.
As our train pulled into Porto, we found ourselves crossing a bridge and beholding the city from the best view imaginable. The colorful buildings piled high on the banks and the beautiful, high bridges spilling across the river make Porto truly breathtaking.
Porto is the second largest city in Portugal and is alive with activity. Boats hurry up and down the Douro river and trains, cars, and pedestrians dash across the bridges. Our favorite experience in Porto was crossing the Luís I Bridge to tour the Port wine cellars across the river. Not only is the bridge itself beautiful, but it affords a great view of the city from about 50 yards in the air. There are people shopping, dining, fishing, singing, and working at every turn. You can get lost in the winding streets along the sides of the hills, but you won’t be disappointed. There is a beautiful building or crumbling road at every turn.

My favorite city in Portugal – loved it!
Wow, amazing photos. Now I want to go to Portugal like today. The colorful rooftops make everything look so magical.
I love Portugal, but haven’t yet made it up there to Porto. You’ve just given me more incentive to get there, even if I have to sneak in (long story). 🙂
Hope you’re settling back in well!
Looks amazing – thanks for sharing!
Gorgeous photos! I’m dying to visit Porto!!
Wow, those photos are great! Looks like a beautiful, charming city.
Suzy, thanks for posting the photo, and thanks to everyone for the positive comments. I highly recommend Porto. Be sure to sample some port.
Great photos — and yes, wish I was there. Portugal is high up on my list of must-see locations. Thanks for the scouting report.
I just noticed the first picture has a Goldfrapp, Placebo and Ben Harper sign way in the background, haha even better. Those are really detailed pics when you blow them up.
