Built by the river, Porto offers a unique contrast between medieval architecture and contemporary life. For the past years, many historical buildings were renovated in the city, expanding the hotel industry and offering more hospitality options to tourists. Many investors benefited from this renovation projects and immigrated to Portugal under the Golden Visa Program.
