Livraria Lello

It's an old bookshop with an amazing interior and spiral staircase. Voted as one of the most beautiful bookshops in Europe. Be warned that it can get incredibly crowded and claustrophobic.

Address
Rua das Carmelitas
Getting there
near Praça dos Leões and the Universidade do Porto
Price
Due to the absurd number of tourists, to get in you have to buy a €10 ticket online (or €12 at the entrance), which can be used towards book purchases
