Porto’s cultural heritage is defined by a blend of Baroque architecture, traditional azulejo tiling, and historic monuments. This selection features the National Museum Soares dos Reis, Portugal’s first national museum, alongside iconic religious sites like the gold-laden Church of São Francisco and the tile-clad Igreja do Carmo. The list also includes the monumental bronze statue of Dom Pedro IV in Liberty Square and Bordalo II’s 'Half Rabbit,' a contemporary sculpture constructed from recycled materials in Vila Nova de Gaia.
