Description
A view looking along Rua dos Clerigos street to the Torre dos Clerigos tower, one of Porto's most famous landmarks, and church. The tower is 249ft / 76m tall, the tallest belltower in Portugal and was, until the end of the 19th century, the highest building in Portugal. Inside you can climb up over 200 steps for superb views over the city. The baroque church was designed by Nicolau Nasoni, an architect of Italian origin, and built between 1735 and 1748.
