Rabelo Boats at Douro River

Traditional Rabelo boats rest along the serene waters of the Douro River in Porto, Portugal. These historic vessels are iconic for transporting Port wine barrels from vineyards to the riverbanks. In the background, the majestic Dom Luis I Bridge arches gracefully over the waterway connecting Porto's historic core with Vila Nova de Gaia across the river. Colorful houses climb the hillside, adding vibrant splashes against the clear blue sky dotted with wispy clouds.
