Porto’s Riverside Charm in Spring

Porto in spring is a gentle joy. We strolled along the Douro River under blossoming jacarandas, watching boats drift beneath the iconic Dom Luís I Bridge. The Ribeira district’s cobbled streets were alive with music and smells of grilled sardines. We climbed the Clérigos Tower for sweeping city views, then relaxed in the Jardins do Palácio de Cristal among peacocks and flowers. The mild weather made it easy to walk everywhere. Don’t miss sipping a glass of port wine as the sunset casts golden light over the terracotta rooftops. #springitinerary
