• Teatro Nacional São João - This historic building, erected in 1910, stands on the site of the Real Theatre, which was destroyed by fire in 1908.

Designed by Marques da Silva, it is recognized as a building of public interest. Its primary goals are to create and present theatre shows of various genres and to promote greater public access to specialist, classic, and contemporary theatre works, covering both national and international drama repertoires. The building also connects the Carlos Alberto Theatre to the São Bento da Vitória monastery.

• Igreja do Carmo - This church, built in the latter half of the eighteenth century, is renowned for its architecture and interior carvings, making it one of Porto’s most remarkable rococo buildings.

It features a geometric sequence of 103 windows. This polygonal-shaped building has four façades, two of which relate to its main functions: the main façade on Rua de São Bento da Vitória provides access to the Court sector, while the other façade, facing the Cordoaria Garden, was originally constructed for the direct passage of prisoners and is now the building’s main entrance. Notable figures such as Camilo Castelo Branco, a famous Portuguese writer charged with adultery, and Zé do Telhado, charged with theft, were held here.

In 2008, The Guardian newspaper ranked this library as the world’s third most beautiful, as did Lonely Planet in its “Lonely Planet’s Best in Travel 2011” guide, describing it as an ‘Art Nouveau gem’ with ‘neo-Gothic shelves’ and a ‘lolloping red staircase.’
• Jardim de João Chagas - Commonly known as Cordoaria Garden, this garden has been called João Chagas Garden since 1924. Its popular name comes from the rope makers who worked here for about 200 years. In the nineteenth century, the Municipality decided to transform the Praça da Cordoaria into a public area. The project, by German landscaper Emile David, was completed in 1865/1866. The garden features statues of Ramalho Ortigão and António Nobre, a set of sculptures by Juan Muñoz from 2001, and “O rapto de Ganímedes” (Kidnapping of Ganímedes).

It is one of the most important Baroque works, known for its gilded interior from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.

It has been a National Monument since 1910 and a World Cultural Heritage site by UNESCO since 1996.

• Mosteiro da Serra do Pilar - A World Cultural Heritage site, construction began in 1538 and was completed around 1670. Initially created to accommodate the Augustinian Friars of the Monastery of Grijó, it later housed the liberal army during the Civil War of 1832-1834. Due to the war and constant attacks, it fell into disrepair until 1834, when the Royal Brotherhood of Lady of the Pilar and later the Group of Friends of the Monastery of Serra do Pilar, in 1925, restored the entire building. The church, with a circular plan, has a dome surrounded by a balcony; the cloister is also circular, with 36 Ionic columns, the only example in Portugal. From its grand terrace, one can see the entire riverside area of Porto and Gaia up to the Arrábida Bridge, and the historic center, highlighting the Cathedral and D. Luís I bridge. In the opposite direction, one can see the Fontainhas area and the São João bridge.
• Ponte Infante Dom Henrique - The bridge was inaugurated on March 30, 2003, following a project by engineer Adão da Fonseca. It was built to replace the upper deck lane of the D. Luís I Bridge, now used by metro line D. With a 371-meter-long and 20-meter-wide deck, it is a Maillart-type arch bridge, built at a high altitude level, presenting a span-rise ratio of 11.2, with a 280 m arch span - a world record.
