Est. reading time:

This video is from Porto, or Oporto as it used to be called in English. The city has the unmistakable atmosphere of an historically important city.

The “Historic Centre of Oporto” is also no. 755 on UNESCO’s World Heritage List.

You can’t miss this feeling standing on the Gaia side of the river Douro looking across the river to the Ribeira district rising high and steep up to the baroque buildings forming the skyline. Standing up there, looking down across the river to the huge warehouses of the port wine producers in the Gaia, you get the same feeling. Walking the banks on either side of the river, you will get the same impression. This is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and deservedly so.

First, watch this video from Porto, then read about the visit and the WHC Site.

You will find a number of videos from several countries on Sandalsand’s YouTube channel. As you can see from the link above, that’s where the original videos are hosted. In addition all videos and playlists also appear in separate articles on this website, like the one you are on now. You may watch the video right here, or in a larger window on YouTube.
