Instagram accounts to see Porto? We know a few!
In the age of Instagram a local’s love for their city is well documented. As proud “tripeiros”, we love to show off our city… The people of Porto, endearingly called tripeiros, are known for our pride in our city. We, at Taste Porto, are very proud tripeiros and, as you might have noticed, we are madly in love with our city. Luckily, we are not alone and there are plenty more like us who share their love of the city through social media. Instagram, being one of the chosen platforms for this, allows us to showcase not only beautiful landscapes and secret alleyways of the city, but also the wonderful food we have here. And you KNOW how we like that!
