One of the most famous sights in Porto is the triumphant, sky-level Luis I bridge, a feat of engineering and a genuinely beautiful thing. The top of the bridge sees walkers, lovers and tourists sharing the space as the sun sets over Porto's iconic riverscape, while local trams rumble past periodically and gulls circle overhead. Evening life in Porto, captured in one recording.
