About Porto

Porto, also known as Oporto, is the second-largest city in Portugal, the capital of the Porto District, and one of the major urban areas of the Iberian Peninsula. Located along the Douro River estuary in northern Portugal, Porto is one of the oldest European centres, and its core was proclaimed a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1996.

Porto is a city on the northwest coast of Portugal known for its stately bridges and port wine production. In the mediaeval Ribeira (riverside) district, narrow cobblestone streets wind past merchant houses and cafes. Because of its growing reputation as an advanced educational hub, the city has become a student favourite in recent years. Furthermore, the city has benefited primarily from rising living costs and studying in popular European destinations such as London, Munich, and many others. As a result, Porto has earned a positive reputation among students and has become a popular choice. This city is undeniably " a special one," and students should have no reservations about the quality of their education and life here.
