Tips from locals
Dating back to the 16th century, the Monastery of Serra do Pilar (classified by UNESCO as World Heritage) as an interesting church and cloisters which are laid out according to a circular design unique in Portugal. In the front of the church you will find the most wonderful and breathtaking view in Porto, seeing the full splendor of the city and the river Douro below.

Great view of Porto, from the other side of the river (Gaia). I recommend the view by night!
