The bridge spans the Douro River

#newyearnewtrip The view from the Dom Luís I Bridge in Porto, Portugal, is spectacular. The bridge spans the Douro River and connects the historic center of Porto with the Vila Nova de Gaia district. From the bridge, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the city’s iconic Ribeira neighborhood, with its colorful buildings and narrow streets, as well as the scenic riverbanks lined with wine cellars.
