matosinhos porto portugal

This is the new metro that supports all the Porto zone area in terms of transportation. Porto had since 1974 projects to build a subway They just end up making this one and only in some parts it goes under the earth.

This monument stands alone in the middle of nothing. Locate in Paços de Manuel now occupies an zrea where people just pass by.

Matosinhos's houses are quite an experience to see. The big majority of the houses are decorated with Portuguese style tiles.

It's here that an important sea-port was built - Leixoes Sea-Port. This seaport not only is vital for the north of Portugal but also for all Portugal itself.

This is Degusto - Ristorante & Wine Bar.

It started to be italian only but nowadays provides international cuisine also. Portuguese dishes are popular too, of course.

The wine list is really impressive. Or wouldn't guests find next door one of the finest wine shops in the whole Portugal, Vinho & Coisas.
