Porto is the epitome of the Portugal soul. Saudade, Fado, and a stroll down the river Douro all add to the calmness Lisbon or the beautiful south can't offer. You must try Porto wine, the local specialty Francesinha, or the ubiquitous codfish. The top attractions in Porto are the Palacio da Pena, the Parque da Cidade, the River Douro, the Clérigos Tower and Church, the São Bento Railway Station, and the Port wine Cellars. For art lovers, the Serralves Museum of Contemporary Art is a must-see. Children will also enjoy visiting Oceanário de Lisboa to admire its sea creatures.
