This walking tour in Porto focuses on the dynamic Boavista neighborhood, an area full of life where commercial streets blend seamlessly with residential avenues. Boavista began to develop in the 1960s following the construction of the Arrábida Bridge, becoming one of the city’s most active districts. The tour begins with a visit to the Bouça Housing Complex by Álvaro Siza, a landmark of social housing and modern Portuguese architecture. From there, a pleasant walk along Avenida da Boavista leads to the iconic Casa da Música, designed by Rem Koolhaas for Porto’s designation as European Capital of Culture in 2001. The journey continues to the Casa das Artes, an emblematic 1980s creation by Eduardo Souto Moura that reflects his early architectural vision. With a short walk or a ride on public transportation, we reach the Vodafone Headquarters by Barbosa & Guimarães, a bold and sculptural building that contrasts with its surroundings.
