The best fashion and gift stores Porto

A former family bookstore that, after the death of the founder's grandson, was eventually acquired by the publisher Leya. The change in ownership has not detracted from the charm of this large modern space designed in wood and steel and lined with books from floor to ceiling. You will find books of all categories, from novels to comics, philosophy, history, or even textbooks for those who study in Portugal. While strolling through the bookstore, you will probably come across a book that will catch your eye.

Fans of Hergé and comic strips in general should not miss this place! The bookstore has real treasures, some locked in the windows. Even those who do not speak the language of The will find their happiness because the classics of the French and Belgian comics are sold in original form. Satirical magazines from Portugal and Brazil, old comics and miniature characters are also part of the wealth of the store.

Located next to the mercado do Bolhao, on the corner of the street, the official FC Porto store is clearly visible with its mannequins in the window.

You will find all the accessories and merchandise in honor of the soccer club, shirts, shoes and balls with the name of FC Porto on them. A very practical little store in the city center. You can bring back a souvenir of the national sport of Portugal.
