The classified area comprises the medieval borough located inside the 14th-century Romanesque wall. It includes the oldest buildings in the city, as well as typical streets and attractive public areas.

Since the development of Porto was closely connected with the left margin of River Douro, the proposal included the highly significant Luís I Bridge, built by Théophile Seyrig, a disciple of Gustav Eiffel, and the prominent building of the Augustinian Convent of Serra do Pilar.
The protection area corresponds to the former outskirts of the medieval city on both sides of the river. In Vila Nova de Gaia, this area includes the amphitheatre-shaped slope where the Port wine cellars are located. On the north margin, it comprises the ancient borough of Miragaia, the northern belt whose renovation was begun in the 18th century, the ancient area of Santo Ildefonso, the slopes of Guindais and the terraces of Fontaínhas that descend towards the River Douro.
