It’s quite a pretty square with a nice monument - although affected at the moment by building works for the new Linea Rosa metro line. The lion and eagle (if that’s what it is) on top are quite striking.

Interesting monument, commemorating the resistance of Porto during the Peninsular war (Napoleonic invasion) and British military support for Portugal. Impressive reliefs. There's an excellent Mercado (indoor market) very near to it that…

This is an impressive monument with a very intricate piece of design showcasing the moment of a war. This was renovating when I visited here, located inside a park. The park itself is peaceful and the monument itself is worth a visit.
