Baixa features many of Porto’s most romance-worthy boltholes: graceful mansions transformed into luxury retreats. Some have great views, high above the bustle of the city. There are some superb restaurants here for romancing your other half and the medieval streets are wonderfully atmospheric after dark. Ribeira also offers wonderful views over the river, its riverside restaurants are ideal for sunset-viewing, and boutique hotels here are perfect for a romantic getaway.

It’s a low-key neighborhood where you can stumble upon Porto’s oldest cemetery and get to know the locals over a cup of coffee in a specialty coffee shop. Young, up-and-coming Cedofeita is full of independent businesses, and travelers looking for art and an alternative vibe will find it here.

While much of Porto is walkable and a pleasure to wander around, it’s hard to beat Ribeira for its scenic waterfront promenade, or Baixa for the sheer number of sights packed into its winding medieval lanes.

For beautiful night-time views of Ribeira and Baixa, cross the River Douro along the Dom Luis I bridge and walk along the promenade in Vila Nova de Gaia. Porto is one of the safest cities in Europe. Pretty much all neighborhoods are safe to walk around at any time of day, though at night, it’s a good idea to stick to well-lit areas and avoid shortcuts through dark alleys.
