Porto needs 2 days: the Ribeira (historic district by the Douro river) on one, and a Port wine cellar visit in Vila Nova de Gaia on the other. May-June brings mild weather ahead of summer heat. It's cheaper than Lisbon. It gives its name to Port wine, produced in the Douro Valley and aged in centuries-old cellars facing the river, and its Ribeira, with colorful houses stacked on the hillside, has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996.
