Behind Instituto Português de Fotografia (Portuguese Institute for Photography), in Cordoria, is the S. Bento da Vitória street, which leads us to the viewpoint of Vitória. This is one of the places we recommend, as it shows amazing landscapes of part of the city and it is open to the public, free of charge.
