Porto has an ancient history that they proudly display throughout the city, and within the oldest district in town, the Ribeira District. The buildings, shops, and streets are all very old and hold their own history within. Porto is most famous for creating a rich wine called Port, hence the name of the town. The wine is made and aged within ancient caves that exist right alongside the Douro River. The Douro River runs directly through Porto, giving the scenery a truly magical scene. Boat tours are likely the best way to experience the wonderful views of the city. There are also museums, other historical sites, many restaurants serving Port and other wines, and a bustling downtown area both during the day and at night. Porto
