Oporto

Oporto (also known as Porto) is a city in northern Portugal and is the second largest city in Portugal. One of Portugal's most internationally famous products, Port wine, was named after the city because it was originally shipped from the area or, more precisely, from Vila Nova de Gaia, a city just across the river which belongs to the same conurbation. Porto is well known for its enterprising spirit, characteristic culture, people, and local cuisine. Ribeira, the historic Centre of Porto, has been declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO (1996).
