Description
A couple take a break from sightseeing on the steps of the main entrance to Porto's Se do Porto cathedral. One of the city's most important historic buildings, it sits on a hilltop in the heart of the Old Town and was originally built in the 12th and 13th centuries in the Romanesque style; and has since been enlarged and modified several times. I'm not quite sure what creature the unusual carved stone handrail is supposed to be, it looks like a snake with the head of maybe a dog. The plaza and terraces around the cathedral are great places to relax, and have superb views over the city.
