Ribeira
I highly recommend going to the less touristy side of the river for the best views/photo spots (and the best wine tasting!) and down to the side closest to all the other tourist attractions if you want to walk along the river and eat at some of the amazing restaurants in the hidden alleyways

Church of Saint Ildefonso
Another iconic spot in Porto due to the church blue tiles and it being a gorgeous back drop for photos.

Okay so this isn’t actually in Porto, but it is an awesome day trip from Porto and an AWESOME winery to visit if your interested in tasting the amazing wine Portugal has to offer. Also, the views are fantastic!

Livraria Lello
This library is a must see if you’re a Harry Potter fan, but be aware that you will be waiting in a line no matter what time you go during the day. Apparently everyone loves Harry Potter 🤷🏽‍♀️

Jardins do Palácio de Cristal
When I was first visiting Porto my local friend refused to take me here because he said it was too touristy for him and that I could go on my own lol. As a visitor this place is awesome! But as a local it’s overrated. The views are amazing and it’s a nice place to walk around
