clerigos tower (torre dos clerigos)

rainky420

这个塔有76米高，可以俯瞰波尔图全城，曾是全国最高建筑物。没有电梯要爬200多个台阶，不过上面景色很好，因此物有所值了。门票是两欧元，还算便宜。

It's a very nice church and you can visit the tower for some euros. After climbing a lot you can reach wonderful views

It's easy to find and the entrance fee is quite low (€ 3).The climb is allright although some steps are quite small so some consideration to fellow tourists is welcome.We had great weather so the view was very good in the sun with a nice breeze. A bit crowded though so sometimes a bit difficult to enoy the view.The attached church is not very spectacular.

This is a great way to see the city from a different angle, however be aware that there are quite a few steps to make it to the top and the passageways are quite narrow - a member of our group got rather claustrophobic and had to go back down. Also, as it is the same way up as down, it can take a while as you have to wait for people on the stairs. We went on a not very busy day in February - I suspect it gets packed during the summer months but hopefully they limit the numbers! At the top there isn't loads of space and you have to fight your way to get round as people just stand in the way, however the views are worth it. It is also nice to visit the church afterwards.

It dominates Porto landscape and deserves it entirely. Along with the Sé and City Hall building, at Aliados avenue, Torre dos Clérigos is one of the 3 greats in this so fantastic city.

...about the view!And all the stairs and the tiny narrow staircases...A bit windy on topWe were walking up a very steep street on our way to there, so it was a feeling of climbing even from before the beginning...

Climbing to the top is an excellent way to get a wonderful view of the city of Porto and the river. Do not miss going up stairs and seeing the rooms and area that has been restored. You can walk completely around the top area of the church. Also do not miss going down stairs to the worship area to see the alter and fresh flowers.

We had been using this tower as a landmark for a few days. On Valentines Day we decided to make the climb. We were surprised to find it was half price for couples so we paid 3 euro. We began to climb and climb and arrived at the first stop. The views and pictures are truly amazing. It was quite busy and narrow so sometimes you had to wait for others on the stairs especially going up to the top platform. Once you arrive it is so worth it! Also included in the price is a more extensive tour of the church. We were very lucky to hear the lunchtime organ concert. All the work they have done is truly a gift to those who visit.

Amazing value. 3 euros for adults and free for children. Walk up was not that hard and lovely views from the tops. Would recommend highly.

Re visit or visit it for the first time. Both the tower and the church were under maintenance and so it has new glow. There are some exhibits included on the price. The view won't let you down after all the effort that you spent to reach to the top - it is breathtaking.

Full of history landmark! Just at the heart of Porto city centre! A lot of stairs to climb but is worth it!! I went with my two toddlers through the stairs!! I I've got the most amazing pictures with them at the Top! Will go again with friends that are visiting Porto for sure!!

This is one of my favorite places from Porto. You have a beautiful representative of Nasoni's architecture with the church and all the others room's. After the work to save and improve the conditions in the church and rooms, it deserves a good look. But the tower was the best representative and an icon of Porto.If you go till the top you have a 360º degrees of the city absolutely gorgeous, and you also have a map with the representation of what you can see.I recommend the visit, but you have to be in shape because you have to climb the stairs till the top. You must choose an hour that has less visitors, because the stairs are not too large, because they are old...I visit a lot the tower and my last visit was on the weekend of the inauguration of the rebuild of the museum and the church.

On a bright sunny day you should consider climbing Clerigos Tower and behold the spectacular view of all of Porto. From here you can see City Hall in all of it's glory and all the way down to the River Duoro. There is a 3 Euro entrance fee and approximately 220 stairs to climb.The further up you go, the stairs become more narrow. In the lower half two people can pass each other; however, in the upper third only one person at a time can transit the stairs. Keep ear muffs or a hat handy as the wind is very strong at the top.

It's really worth it to go up the Clérigos Tower.Besides beeing the icon of Porto, after climbing those steps you will have na amzing view over the city.Don't miss the memorable organ concerts at the church at lunch time.It was recently renewed so in one or two months it will be excelente!

The stairway, expecially near the top, is very narrow so of you don't like that, don't go up. Once you are up, the view is beautiful. I recommend to visit this place as early as possible when there are still few visitors. Makes walking upstairs more comfortable.
