Street Art in Porto: A City Painted in Colors
Walking through Porto, you’ll quickly notice that creativity spills onto the streets. Walls, doors, corners, and even abandoned houses become open-air canvases. From large-scale works like those of Brazilian-Japanese artist Mura to something as simple and charming as a painted cat, the city’s street art is always evolving—transforming Porto into a living gallery.
Where to Find Street Art in Porto
The artworks are scattered across the city, often in unexpected places. The best way to discover them is simply to wander with your eyes wide open—look up, down, and even behind you. Some murals are so well hidden that you might walk past them countless times before noticing. (It took me over a year to spot the giant cat tucked between two buildings!)
Exploring Porto’s street art is like going on a treasure hunt—enjoy the surprises along the way and, most importantly, have fun!
