Welcome to do great Eco-shopping!
(Enjoyable shopping in the middle of the nature or in a beautiful city-scenery).
You find interesting things from the open-air markets, that are held in different towns and villages each day of the week.

Near Porto you find also outlet-shopping and many fancy shopping malls.(if you enjoy "Shopping center walks")
Luxury products you get from factory shops,small ateliers and nice boutiques; some of them in Porto downtown or Boavista/ Foz area.
(ceramics and pottery, jewels, embroideries on linen,etc)
 
Traditional Portuguese items and delicacies are sold in a very beautiful cozy boutique
(Vida Portuguesa) in Porto downtown;
next to the famous Lello-bookstore.(considered as one of the most beautiful bookstores in the world).
 
 
You also can make a small break between shopping. There are plenty of interesting spots to
enjoy some good Portuguese wines;
Port wine, vinho verde.... and the famous Nata-cakes.
