Região Norte (English:
North Region), is a region in the northern part of Portugal. It is a land
of dense vegetation and profound historic and cultural wealth. Its capital
is the city of Porto. It is one of five regions of Mainland
Portugal (NUTS II subdivisions). The Norte is a culturally varied region,
thus historical rivalry between different neighbouring cities and towns
are very common, although with a strong common Portuguese identity, but
unlike other Portuguese regions where every city and town are culturally
very similar.
The city of Porto comprises 15 civil
parishes. The historic centre of Porto was declared a World Heritage Site
by UNESCO in 1996. One of Portugal's most internationally famous products,
Port wine, is named after the city because it is produced in, and shipped
from the area or, more precisely, from Vila Nova de Gaia, a city just across
the river which belongs to the same conurbation. The country was also named
after the Latin name of Porto, Portus Cale. |
