Description
A view of the neoclassical Palacio da Bolsa stock exchange building in Porto, Portugal. Built between 1842 and 1910, the grey stone exterior is quite a contrast to its lavishly decorated interior, one of the city's most notable attractions. The towers behind it upper right are the Capela de Nossa Senhora da Esperanca / Church of Our Lady of Hope, in the background is the Ponte da Arrabida road bridge, the furthest downstream of the city's bridges. The River Douro is just visible on the left. The Palacio is on the edge of the historic Ribeira district, part of the Historic Centre of Oporto which is registered as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.
