Port wine Porto, 1790
Porto in 1790 is a working river city at the heart of the recently formalised port trade, its fortunes tied to the Douro and to British merchants. The walk follows the riverfront and granite streets from the mouth of the Douro, through Gaia's wine lodges and Porto's rebuilt avenues, to a high viewpoint across the city.
36 scenes — 22 streets, squares and views, 14 interiors to step inside. Planned from the Wikipedia record of Porto as it stood in 1790 (“Port wine”).
