It's a huge huge garden and also a place for other actions (cultural program, celebration etc). Beautifully designed and maintained. This is the place from where you can see the sunset on the river which you will never forget. But to pick a spot for that is very tough as it get very crowded towards the evening time. This is by far the best place to view the river and spent time with your family, friends or loved ones.

The prettiest feature of this garden is the advantage view points it has over the city, over the river and the bridges. If you are in the neighbourhood, then go for a walk and visit. If not, I wouldn't bother to go there specifically. There are many chickens, many roosters, peacocks and ducks roaming freely in the garden.

This place is insane, definitely worth visiting if you like nature and lovely views. There are peacocks, ducks and chickens running around free and chilling. You can get many beautiful pictures here.

This is definitely my favorite place in Porto. With beautiful landscapes, lots of nature, and a well-kept space, it’s a true retreat. It also has one of the most stunning views of the Douro River and the sunset, in my opinion. I highly recommend a visit, whether you’re just passing through Porto or live here.

Great spot to relax, have a meal, or just enjoy the view. The garden is free to enter and it has many pathways that lead to wonderful view points. Plenty of photo opportunities here! There are some wild chickens and peacocks here that add to the appeal!
