I was very taken with the statue of the naked woman. All over Porto there are the most wonderful tilework. The artistry is wonderful – particularly at the railway station.
More Splendour and Art from Porto
The fabulous tiles of Porto.
Leixões – The Tragedy of the Sea – sculptures on the beach.
Portugal – Porto – More Art and Architecture.
We were heading for Brazil and a trip down the Amazon. It did not really feel as if we had begun. January in Porto was not quite tropical splendour, steamy jungle or wilderness. It was good though!
So much to see.
I like the art, the architecture and bustling streets. It was good to get a beer, sit out and think about what lay in store ahead! Brazil!!
