This home is a mere two-minute walk from the iconic Rua das Flores which leads directly towards the Douro River. Other attractions nearby include the Torre dos Clérigos, the nightlife of Galerias de Paris Street and the São Bento Train Station (bear with us with this recommendation, it's one of the most beautiful train stations in Europe). We love this apartment's character features (exposed stone walls, French doors and shutters) mixed with the industrial-style vintage lights and steel staircase leading up to the bedrooms.
