PORTO
 Porto
is one of Portugal's most beautiful cities, and the country's second-largest
metropolis. A UNESCO-recognized "city of world heritage" and the European
Capital of Culture 2001, Porto is the perfect setting for a language course.
It is full of historical monuments and places of interest ranging from the
12th century cathedral to the ultra modern museum of contemporary art - the
most visited museum in Portugal. But its true glory lies in the incidental
details: the old fashioned street cafés, the markets, the bookshops and
restaurants tucked away down side streets, the simple pleasures of a tram
journey along the river front or of spending the afternoon by the beach:
Porto is a marvelous city to explore.The climate in Porto is Mediterranean, which means warm, dry summers with a average temperature between 15 - 25 °C and mild but rainy winters with temperatures between 5 - 15 °C. |
