Thinking about cities for a winter break in Europe?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Dreaming of a winter break in Porto, sampling the most traditional foods?<\/a> The best winter city breaks you can find will depend highly on what you are looking for, of course. Maybe you want snow, or maybe you want some sun. Maybe you are looking for a cheap winter break or you decided to go somewhere you’ve never been to before. Either way, here\u2019s why we believe Porto is, in fact, the best European city for a winter break!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Porto is the Best Place for a Winter Break<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

1. Porto is the city to visit right now<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Of course, we are biased and that’s why we keep publishing articles on our Facebook page<\/a> and Instagram account<\/a> of others saying the same. Porto is no longer Lisbon’s ugly sister but instead has become the most authentic one. That’s right, we’ve said it: Porto is the most authentic city to visit!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n

2. Not as cold as most locations in Europe<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Porto sports a warm temperate, Mediterranean climate, with daytime temperatures in winter ranging from 50-60F\/10-18\u00baC and nighttime from 40-50F\/5-10\u00baC. We hear that’s just like summer in a lot of countries! However, if you happen to find yourself in town during winter break and it\u2019s pouring rain and you don\u2019t know what to do in Porto when it rains, we also have some wonderful indoor activities to share<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n

3. Porto’s food can be easily considered comfort food<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I mean, can you imagine eating a warm francesinha during a winter break in Porto<\/a>? Oh, the joy it would bring your stomach! Or a bowl of a steaming bowl of Caldo Verde paired with a delicious bifana<\/a>? Or instead Porto-style tripe and white bean stew.\u00a0Or… well the list goes on! Besides, you\u2019ll see Christmas desserts everywhere: sonhos<\/em>, rabanadas<\/em>, bolo rei.<\/em> And if you happen to catch a cough in Porto, don\u2019t worry, because we have a recipe for that too<\/a>!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
