Portugal's second city tumbles down granite hillsides to the Douro River, its azulejo-tiled facades and iron bridges creating one of Europe's most photogenic skylines. Port wine lodges line the Vila Nova de Gaia waterfront, while the Ribeira district's medieval alleys lead to some of the best petiscos on the Iberian Peninsula.
