Porto

Tumbling down to the Douro in a jumble of azulejo tiles and terracotta, Porto feels lived-in rather than staged — romance with its sleeves rolled up.

Why go

Porto's Galerias de Paris district turns a few pedestrian streets into one open-air party from Thursday onward — the crowd flows between bars with glasses in hand, and the fun happens as much on the cobbles as inside. Warm up with petiscos and vinho verde, dip into an art-deco ballroom club, finish with a francesinha at 4am. Effortless, cheap and infectiously friendly.
