Matosinhos is one of the
most beautiful cities of the area of Porto,
in the north of Portugal, the North-West of
the
Iberian Peninsula, on the
right margin of the Douro River.
Placed beside the town of
Porto, and bathed by the Atlantic Ocean.
Matosinhos is a city with great industrial
development, which it seeks
to maintain, at the same time as its popular
traditions.
All this importance and
development arises from the fi shing port,
which is one of the most important of the
country. Having been founded
even before the creation of Portuguese
nationality, the Sea is always the passion
of
this beautiful city which
will welcome you in January 2010, in the 58º
World Show of the C.O.M.
Matosinhos a land to be discovered !
