In
1996, UNESCO declared Porto as World
Heritage.
UNESCOs
decision was mainly influenced by the quality of the
urban and social renovation works, especially those
supporting the local population and boosting cultural
and sport activities, which have been successfully
introduced throughout the area now classified as World
Heritage.
The
Porto Sé (Cathedral) is a building of roman structure
that dates from the 12th and 13th centuries, which
suffered great changes during the Baroque. Outside it
still maintains the looks of a fortress church with
battlements.
Consisting
of 150 cult ornaments, adornments, silverware and
liturgical books of the 14th to 19th centuries, the
Tesouro da Sé (Cathedral Treasure) is worthy of
mention...so,what are you waiting
for?
