I was intrigued by this photo to look it up because it looked familiar. I was taking an Art History Class last fall and remember studying the Baroque Style and one of the pictures we saw was that of the tower that stands tall in the back of this picture.Torre Dos Clerigos or the Tower of Clergies built in the 1700's. This was one of my favorites. Thanks for sharing this photo.
Happy Outdoor Wednesday Alfazema! Beautiful glimpse of a gorgeous city in Portugal. I hop you had time to stop by Vila Nova de Gaia! Thanks for sharing your photo.

I've done quite a bit of traveling; but I've never been to Portugal. Perhaps I'll make it there sometime. Thanks for sharing your photo.

What a cool picture..everything is soooo crowded :o Happy OW!
Thank you for showing us this glimpse from a train. I adore traveling by train and catching a quick peek at a village, or a copse, or a church.
All the best, Lana @ Showers of Blessings
Great pictures! Thanks for sharing, and I've got an award for you.
Did you hear that the Pope is visiting Angola in October?! I thought about you when I saw this.

Beautiful photo. I love Oporto and I have already lived there.
