The Porto-Campanhã Railway Station was opened on May 21, 1875 and originally called Porto alone, it is an interface of the Northern and Minho Lines, located in the Parish of Campanhã, and which serves the city of Porto, in Portugal.

It is considered the main railway station in the North Region of the country, since the beginning it has been an important railway hub, both in the movement of goods and passengers.

The São Jorge Castle is located in the parish of Santa Maria Maior, in the city and municipality of Lisbon. The castle’s first forts date back to the 1st century BC, having been rebuilt several times by various peoples and given different names. The current name derives from the castle’s devotion to São Jorge, patron saint of knights and crusades, made by order of D. João I in the 14th century.

Over time, the castle, as well as the various military structures in Lisbon, was remodeled, to the point that in the first half of the 20th century it was already in an advanced state of ruin. In the 1940s, monumental reconstruction works were undertaken, with a large part of the walls being raised and many of the towers being raised. For this reason, contrary to what one might think at first sight, the “medieval character” of this military complex is due to this reconstruction campaign, and not to the preservation of the castle’s space from the Middle Ages to the present day.

It rises in a dominant position on the highest hill in the historic center, providing visitors with one of the most beautiful views over the city and the estuary of the Rejo River.
