The
natural beauty of Portugal’s oldest region forms the backdrop for this
proud and traditional land. The Douro River and the Port producing
regions are astounding in their beauty... The Douro river is the
longest in northern Portugal. It winds its way past mountains and cliffs
until it reaches the Atlantic near the city of Porto.
Porto
is without doubt the main city in northern Portugal. It has an international
airport and all the charms of a riverside community. It also keeps alive
traditional values while pushing ahead with a dynamic, innovative spirit
in its commercial and industrial life.
