You are a bit bored, the weather isn’t quite what you’d expect from a town in the south,… well that’s normal, as it has been a tradition to have rainy weather when the Book-fair opens to the public.
So instead of hanging around in Cafés (which you should anyway…), just go to Palácio de Cristal and visit the Fair. It´s free and all major Publishing Houses are there presenting their books. This year’s writer is, Germano Silva a writer of Porto with deep knowledge of this city; who knows, you might get into a nice chat with him!
Until the 10th of June there will be all sort of Events and you can buy cheaper Books ( discount of about 10 to 50% – if they are the book of the day). Open every day from 15:30 to 23:30.
