Porto is Portugal's second city and the origin of the country's namesake port wine, a hillside city of tiled buildings running down to the Douro River. It's smaller, older, and less polished than Lisbon, with a working port-town feel that locals are protective of, "we work, Lisbon shows off" is a common local line. The Ribeira riverside district, with its stacked colorful houses, is the city's most photographed corner.
Francesinha, a heavy sandwich of layered meats and cheese smothered in a beer-and-tomato sauce, is Porto's signature, and not for the faint of appetite. Port wine tastings across the river in Vila Nova de Gaia are a local ritual, not just a tourist stop, many Portuense families have ties to the wine houses. Locals speak more directly than in Lisbon and take pride in the city's industrial, working-class identity.
