Oporto - Portugal

Interesting city,

City park

Boavista and a few new buildings

Well, thank you for providing England with port over the centuries - as far as I'm aware, we are the biggest drinkers of it!

yes it's true, and the british have helped develop the city as well.
Porto has the english cemetery and still has some british Port wine companies like Graham's
