Porto's spectacular setting on the Douro River make this city a perfect destination for a city break. Bring your walking shoes because there are some steep hills if you're to explore the stunning historical centre, now a designated World Heritage Site. That said, the city is justly proud of its ultra-modern Metro system, with stations designed by prominent architects. There's also a funicular railroad to whisk you up the steepest hills. In the city center, you really shouldn't miss the bustling Mercado do Bolhão, a traditional market that's central to life in Porto. You'll even find a few small restaurants to enjoy the produce. Contrast is at the heart of Porto's appeal, so the design of the contemporary Fundação de Serralves, the Modern Art Museum, by the visionary architect Rem Koolhaas is as much of an artwork as the pieces within.
