The Cathedral of Porto, located on the prominent hills of Porto, is one of the ancient monuments of the city. The overall architectural structure of the church presents a mix of Gothic and Baroque styles. The front ornate rose window and gate and the main altar itself are purely late Baroque. The elegant Gothic cloister inside is a refreshing experience. The church, which has existed as a city landmark for nearly a thousand years, was built around 1110 and took a century to construct. There are still many exquisite architectural features that are intriguing to this day. The square bell towers on both sides of the church are unusual because the facade decoration is almost empty, and the zigzag structure at the top makes it seem to incorporate some architectural elements of the castle. In addition, there are many pleasing blue flower tile murals inside the church, which is also a major feature of Portuguese architecture.
