The trip to Portugal
Hello.
It so happened that my vacation and my girlfriend got to the month of November, and we decided to go to see any European country, and on their own. I wanted to go somewhere far away and the choice fell on Portugal. However, the flight was in Barcelona and three days we spent there, but I think this city is our people have a long and familiar, and we were there for the second time, in the photos of the leopard did not expose. The main emphasis is on an excellent and very beautiful country Portugal.
We were there in two towns: Porto and Lisbon, as well as in the suburbs of Lisbon, which is called Sintra is the former residence of the Portuguese kings.
So: first it was purchased tickets from Barcelona to Porto, in principle, to fly about an hour or 1.5 hours, do not remember exactly. Domestic European airlines, a very inexpensive happened -)
Porto is the second largest city in Portugal, so to say the northern capital, population less than 300 thousand people.
More than 100 photos
Airport -Fransishku called Sa Carneiro, if I understood correctly and read.
The small airport, immediately on leaving the metro station of the same name, where you get 25 minutes to the city center.

Indeed, the center itself. We were lucky, our hotel is just in this area.

In general, I must say that the city of Porto is very quiet and after Barcelona, not to mention Moscow seems complete village, but that's the beauty of it.

After Porto immediately catches the eye of people. Although much of Lisbon, I would not call.
the weather was great, the afternoon sun, and about 16-18 degrees, but in the evening it was already cool.

A large number of trams

On the second day after arrival, we went to the oldest part of the city, called the Alfama.
The fact that the area is interesting because it is actually the only one that survived in Lisbon after the terrible 1755 earthquake that virtually destroyed this beautiful city entirely, so that the entire modern history of Lisbon, is a building built after 1755. If it is interesting to see how he looked up, the part can be seen in the Alfama district.
