Palácio da Bolsa. Located in the heart of Oporto (in the historical centre)this palace is not actually a palace of kings and queens. Let me explain: this palace was build in the XIX century by the city’s Commercial Association.  Nowadays it still is home for the Oporto Commercial Association.

Anyways, even if it is a work place (how fun is it, a palace where people actually work)  it’s possible either to visit it and to plan events there such as weddings. I mean, the palace is incredible and it’s really hard not to get stuck at every detail. All the rooms are amazing and pretty sumptuous and one almost can’t believe it’s not a real palace because it really seems like one.

We went there on saturday because i was really curious about it. And truth to be said i wasn’t disappointed. I loved every room and every corner. It’s all so beautiful yet opulent, you know?

So, if you happen to be in Porto i would highly suggest you to visit this palace. You’ll love it.

How much does it cost? All the visits are guided in you language and the price is 8,50€ per person.

If you’ve already gone there let me know what you think about it.
