[2025 Porto Attraction] Travel Guide for Garrafeira do Carmo (Updated Jul)

#AustraliaFlightEvent Porto Azulejo is famous for its beauty. That's why there were so many azulejo tiles all over the buildings🩵 I'll introduce you to two of the most beautiful azulejo points that I visited many times during my month-long stay in Porto! 📍(Photo 1-4) Carmo Cathedral / R. do Carmo, 4050-164 Porto, Portugal Carmo Cathedral, which I felt had the most beautiful exterior among the cathedrals in Porto! The cathedral was really big and magnificent. It was a cathedral I visited several times during my trip. I was able to take pretty pictures in front of the side azulejo✨ The admission fee was 5 euros, so it was cheap:) 📍(Photo 5-6) São Bento Train Station São Bento Train Station is considered one of the most beautiful train stations in the world. If you're a tourist to Porto, this is a place you must visit. There are so many people that it can be called the center of Porto. The exterior is beautiful, but the interior azulejos are especially beautiful:) #TravelPlan #OverseasTravel #EuropeTravel #Portugal #Porto #PortoRecommendation #PortoTravel #europetrip #portugal #porto

#2024Travel Review Porto, a Portuguese city full of rich culture and history, is a destination that every traveler must not miss. I arranged the itinerary for the second day a little more loosely, mainly based on the concept of walking around the streets and visiting some scenic spots along the way. / Two-day leisure travel route / Day2: Breakfast: Conga Pork Chop Buns > Lero Bookstore > Carmelitas Church > Shopping R. das Carmelitas > Lunch: Do Norte Café by Hungry Biker > Clérigos Church > Shopping R. das Flores > Stock Exchange Palace > Dinner: Pedro dos Frangos roast chicken The next morning we started with traditional snacks. Since we lived near the Aliados subway station, we chose pork chop buns from the famous restaurant #Conga for breakfast to experience the daily taste of Puerto Ricans. After enjoying the meal, the first stop was the super popular Livraria Lello bookstore, which is famous for its gorgeous wood-carved stairs and stained glass skylights. Although there were so many visitors that I didn’t know what I was looking at~ But the stairs The design is still worth a visit! (Remember to reserve an admission time online first!) Then, walk to #Carmo Church (Igreja do Carmo). The exterior wall is covered with exquisite blue and white tiles. It is a model of Baroque architecture and is also easy to take photos. After visiting the church, go shopping along R. das Carmelitas, which is full of unique shops. This is the right place to buy handicrafts and souvenirs! I randomly chose a roadside shop for lunch, and it was surprisingly delicious. Sure enough, there are delicious surprises everywhere in Bodo! After eating, stroll through R. das Flores (Flower Street). Although the street is not long, it is full of various specialty shops, where you can continue to buy souvenirs and gifts. The highlight of the afternoon was the #Palácio da Bolsa (Palácio da Bolsa). This 19th-century building is famous for its magnificent interior design, especially the ornate decoration of the Moorish Golden Hall, which is truly stunning. Visitors need to reserve a guided tour in advance, and commentary in English and other foreign languages ​​is currently available. Although the visit is not long, the exquisite interior decoration is definitely worth a look! A day trip must end with a delicious local meal. This time, we chose Pedro dos Frangos to taste Puerto’s famous grilled chicken dish. Different from the juicy roasted chicken in Asia, the roasted chicken here is dry in texture ~ but the skin is golden and crispy, and paired with a special sauce, it is simple but unforgettable, and it is the perfect end to a day's journey. #Porto #Porto #Portuguese food #Porto grilled chicken #PedroDosFrangos #Porto must eat #European travel #Travel food #Roasted chicken control #Porto attractions recommendation #Porto itinerary #RDasFlores #PalácioDaBolsa #Pododaily #Porto check-in attractions #Travel inspiration

The magnificent Carmo Church has a stunning three-dimensional sculpture design on the front, which makes people admire it. The blue and white artistic tiles on the side are a unique tile art installation in Portugal. There are paintings with the Bible as the story background, as well as symmetrical geometric patterns and floral designs. The overall feeling is very harmonious, and with the bright sunshine and the blue sky and white clouds as the backdrop, it forms a beautiful three-dimensional picture. The camera can't stop, wanting to capture every beautiful moment. I love this church so much. The church is magnificent and everyone is quietly listening to the pastor's sermons and praying devoutly. Thank the Lord for giving us a beautiful encounter!

Carmo Church Carmo Church is another attraction in Porto that "Azulejos fans" must not miss. The front facade of the church is exquisite and elegant, but the real highlight is the blue and white tile mural on the side wall - Rococo style, complex and elegant, from church stories, monastic scenes to religious symbols, each frame is like a delicate painting. This wall often appears in postcards and beautiful Instagram photos. When you actually stand in front of it, you can feel its meticulous craftsmanship and its quiet and sacredness. ⸻ The building in the middle is Casa Escondida. You may notice that between the two churches there is a mini house that is only about one meter wide - this is the legendary "Hidden House (Casa Escondida)"! It was designed to avoid churches sharing the same wall and was also said to be used to prevent contact between monks and nuns. Although the wall is not clearly visible to the naked eye, looking back after knowing this story, this gap carries a mysterious and strange meaning. Today, the little house is open to visitors (for an additional fee), but many people miss it. If you don’t look closely, you might actually think it’s just two churches stuck together. 💰 Average consumption per person: €10-15 🗓️Itinerary: 1-1.5 hours #NewYear2025 #Church #Bordeaux

📍Carmo Cathedral, Carmeritas Cathedral While walking around downtown Porto, there is a blue azulejo cathedral that stands out. It is Carmo Cathedral! Carmeritas Cathedral is next to Carmo Cathedral. In fact, the two buildings could not be built next to each other according to Portuguese building laws, but they were able to be built together by placing the world's narrowest house between them. A 1-meter-tall space that is registered as a house. There is even a theory that it was the inspiration for Sirius's house in Harry Potter🧙‍♀️🙌👍 #Overseas travel #Portugal #Porto
