小欣:“There were so many people, the bookstore was beautiful, and it was so difficult to take pictures. I originally wanted to buy a book to take home as a souvenir, but I thought my bag was too heavy, so I had to give up. The cheapest book cost 16 euros, but the ticket price can be deducted, so I just visited it.”
Annie长翅膀的喵:“Porto Cathedral, one of the oldest religious buildings in Porto, was built in the 12th century and completed after a century. It combines Romanesque, Gothic and Baroque architectural styles and is now a core part of Porto's World Cultural Heritage. The church is located on the hill on the north bank of the Douro River, where you can enjoy the panoramic view of the city and the river at the same time. It is beautiful.”
Annie长翅膀的喵:“The Dom Luís I Bridge in Porto is a steel arch bridge across the Douro River.
The Dom Luís I Bridge is one of the largest arch bridges in Europe, 560 feet long, with two lanes of high and low. The shape of the arch bridge is roughly similar to the bottom floor of the Eiffel Tower, and it is very magnificent.
It is also called the Waibaidu Bridge in Portugal🤩 by Chinese people.”
Annie长翅膀的喵:“The Clérigos Tower (Monk's Tower, also known as the Priest's Tower) in Porto was built in 1763 and is located in the city center. It is a landmark building in Porto and was once the tallest building in Portugal. It has the functions of a Baroque church and a bell tower.
The small square is crowded with people, and the wooden trams that are still running are slowly pulling up to the station, just like the rhythm of this city, leisurely and relaxed.”
