Places To Visit in the Majestic Land of Porto

by Kosher River Cruise Kosher Tour Operator

Nothing is more exciting than having your long-awaited Glatt Kosher vacations with your family and friends, especially when you’re planning to travel to the magnificent Porto district of Portugal.

Porto is home to the world-famous Porto wine, aged in the cellars of Vila Nova de Gaia. It is also declared as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO because of its beauty and rich history, but enough introduction, let’s dive in on the things you should do on your Glatt Kosher Tour in the Porto District.

The Old Neighborhood, Cais de Ribeira

The Cais de Ribeira is a riverside neighborhood located at the heart of the old town, a place known for its lively and picturesque scenery. It has an amazing colorful facade, which you’ll find on the terraces of the houses lined just along the riverbank, reflected on the river’s waters.

The charms of this old part of the town comes into fruition at night. With its lovely restaurants, lively terraces, and delicious Portugeuse dishes, it will surely satisfy your vacationless soul.

Port Wine Cellars

Why would you go to Porto if you’re not going to visit what the district is famous for? Drinking the infamous port wine is a must during the stay, and visiting their wine cellars and seeing the process of making wine is equally important.

Touring these cellars also comes with a look on its historical background since most, if not all, have their own museums with items that date back about a hundred years or more.

Kadoorie Mekor Haim (Kadoorie Synagogue)

You should definitely visit the largest synagogue not only in Porto, but in the whole Iberian peninsula. This was built and inaugurated during World War II, at the time when Germans were burning every synagogue in Germany.

This synagogue became the “heart” of the Jewish community of the Oporto, giving hope to the Jewish people of the district. Today, you can visit the Synagogue and visit a room where most significant historical objects and documents are displayed.

There are a lot more things to discover during your Glatt Kosher tours in Porto, and getting a private Douro river cruise from Kosher Riverboat Cruises while spending it with your friends and loved ones is the greatest way to do it this 2021.
