¡Hola a tod@s! Esta vez os traigo un post un poco distinto... Os voy a enseñar un poquito como fue mi escapada a Oporto en esta semana santa. Al final del post os dejaré un vídeo recopilatorio que creo que es un bonito recuerdo de los que no se olvidan.
Hello everyone! This time I bring a slightly different post ... I'll teach you a little as was my trip to Porto on this Easter. At the end of the post I leave a compilation video that I think is a nice memory of those who are not forgotten.
Days before leaving for Porto was watching special places of the city, one caught my attention was this much, the palace of glass, it was clear it would be the first place we'd go. Upon arrival at the hotel, we left our bags and headed out to the gardens. We not hard to find, is well signposted. As for parking, gardens and blue have parking area.
If anything especially liked the glass palace are the peacocks. Among the gardens as care, the huge dome and turkeys floating around, the site took on a special touch... Anyway, I love those animals.
By the way, the gardens were stunning views of the Douro River
After seeing the gardens we headed to the next destination, the famous bridge Don Luis I. We missed a bit to get, but eventually managed to park in an area not far. It was one of the liveliest areas of Oporto, many people would cuddle to become a "selfie" with the bridge.
We decided to cross the bridge the next day, so we took something in one of the bars before retiring to the hotel.
Looking for a place for dinner we went through the Norteshopping mall, which claims to be the best shopping center in Oporto. All shops close at 12 and we could do some shopping before retiring to bed. Did not have to drive far, it was 10 minutes from our hotel.

Aquí se acabó nuestro primer día
Here we ended our first day
Here begins our second day! Sure many of you have drawn attention to the "American Donuts", had withdrawn from several markets in the world, but in Portugal are still being! As missed them! I assure you that even if they are retired, many consume much more harmful than the "American Donuts" things, but on the other hand is still a calorie bomb, so care must be taken not be! Back ... on this day we had many things to do, but decided that the nicest thing was to give a morning walk across the river.
Cable cars get a great touch to the landscape, we were a fair bit, so we decided not montarnos and go to the Cathedral of Oporto. The cathedral is a pretty nice place with great views. Nearby there was a safe that red phone booth that leaves no one indifferent.
Finally, we reached the center of Porto. An amazing place with one of the most original in the world Mcdonalds, if you don't like burgers of this franchise, you must also see.
And in the center we decided to visit the bookstore Lello & Irmao, commented that it was inspired by the author of Harry Potter. Leaving aside rumors, is a small but incredibly beautiful library, an absolutely essential place. Once we had a pretty big tail, to our right they stood a box office to buy tickets, cost 3 €, but if you buy a book you deducted these 3 €.
We've been walking all day and we're pretty tired, but there was still one more thing we see, the "Tower of Clerics". Nearby was the shopping street and the famous "Capela das Almas", so decided to visit those places. On the way we also enter the "Mercado do Bolhao" a place with quite charming.
And as a bonus to end our day, I do not know if it was coincidence or luck, on the way to the car we found the station Sao Bento metro, then cross the Don Luis I bridge the upstairs area and went to the hotel to finish our day.
Third and final day of our break.
It was our last day before we left and were pretty tired yesterday, so today would be a quiet day, sit back and enjoy the scenery. We came to visit the beach of Matosinhos, if I'm honest I was not expecting much, do not ask me why. By not wait much of that beach, it still impressed me see her. A huge beach, an amazing ride, full of surfers and sea views out to sea and to the strength of Foz. Unbeatable.
This has been our little adventure Porto, three unforgettable days. Then I leave a video compilation of all the places we have seen, you shall not miss it!
