Description
In Porto, one of the most beautiful cathedrals is the Carmo e Carmelitas. With its baroque/rococo style, it was built in the second half of the 18th century. The stone facade entrance is flanked with sculptures of Elias and Eliseu, the prophets. The side is covered in blue and white tiles, representing scens allusive to the carmlite Order.
The madeira palm standing with the bright blue Porto sign, in front of the Fonte dos Leoes Fountain, are a must see if you visit there. Great travel photo shot! People crawl all over the big, stationery letters.
