Overview
Begun in the 12th century, Porto Cathedral combines a rugged Romanesque exterior with Gothic and Baroque interior elements. In 1387 it hosted the wedding of Philippa of Lancaster and King João I, founding the Anglo-Portuguese Alliance. The 14th-century Gothic cloister is exquisitely decorated with azulejo tiles, and the view of the old town's red rooftops from the cloister is striking. The plaza in front offers a sweeping view of the Douro and Dom Luís I Bridge. Admission about EUR 3 (cloister included). 7-minute uphill walk from Metro São Bento (Line D).
Travel Tips
The plaza in front is a free viewpoint great for photos. Don't miss the azulejo tiles in the cloister.
