Tuesday, Nissan 27, 5780. April 21, 2020. Shalom! World. Porto - Portugal. Its impossible to forget about the relations between Lisbon and Porto. What am i talking? Of course, the capital Lisbon get the attrative, 'cause its the capital of Portugal, full of historicals options, Cafés, etc... but its a touristic city with the another face like: high prices of the services and crowed of tourists. Porto gets the opposite view, 'cause gets historicals options to visit and its a city that keeps a local feeling, friendly people and good prices. Its very easy to stroll around the city by foot, but the Metro and  tram are cheap and works on.   Porto, previously Cale, was a little Celtic hamlet located on the mouth of  the Duero river. When the Romans addeda port,  "Portus Cale" it not only gave its name to  the Porto of today, but the nation of Portugal.  Shalom! Aleichem. Cultural Support: Jacob Jr. Benleumi Advisor, Co
