Discover 𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗴𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗼𝗺𝘆 𝗼𝗳 𝗣𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗼 and hidden culinary gems with @eat_porto that took me to the best spots in the city.
While we were walking around the food stops, we also got to learn about the history, culture and some sights of Porto.
And after reading the book Experience Porto by Luís Remisio, who is the founder of the tour, it was awesome to visit places I read about and see where locals go.

Miradouro is the Portuguese word for viewpoint, and the 𝗠𝗶𝗿𝗮𝗱𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗼 𝗱𝗮 𝗩𝗶𝘁ó𝗿𝗶𝗮 is one of the most stunning, yet quite secret spots in Porto.
🆓 unlike other famous viewpoints, such as the top of Clérigos tower, the Miradouro da Vitória is completely free
🛑 although Google Maps says it is permanently closed, there is a tiny open door in the fence through which you can access it
