The Sinister Porto - Creepy Stories of the City

Overview of the tour in Porto

We start in Rua das Flores, the place where a great misfortune was committed for the whole city that to this day is still unsolved.
We'll see one of the best viewpoints in Porto (Vitoria).

Unfortunately, not everything is beautiful since the place is related to one of the darkest periods of Portuguese history. We'll visit the old jail to tell you bizarre stories about famous prisoners. Afterward, we'll go to a romantic garden that hides the most terrible stories of Porto.

Let's stop for a while to learn about the students with black capes, rituals, and where we could find them conspiring against the dictatorship. We'll continue along Carlos Alberto Square and tell you about the horrors of our Dictatorship and the heroic acts of the Portuguese Army.

Finally, we'll finish with some incredible views. A little further away from the city center, we like the silence, the darkness, and the gloom. This place - the Palácio de Cristal Gardens - is perfect to tell you about the violent legend behind the name of Vila Nova de Gaia.

Also, it is perfect to explain to you about the Saudade and the crazy (and horrifying) love acts that happened because of that Portuguese feeling.
