★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Its is built next to Igreja do Carmo almost side by side. Originally built as a convent that no longer exist. The facade is done in granite with three arched entrances topped with statues. There is a single bell tower on the left, the top of which covered with blue and white azulejos tiles.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ This church and it's sister next door have a distinct style of decoration. I suppose it's portugese baroque? Lots to look at. It can overwhelm the eyes. It's an actual church with candles & people making the sign of the cross

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Built in the early 17th century, as a mixture of Classic building and Baroque carved altar and pulpits. The ornate carvings on the inner domes are enhanced by the simple white painting. It’s amazing that this church is side by side with the “do Carmo” church

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Located in downtown Porto, the Carmo and Carmelitas churches look like the biggest church in the city. In fact, they are two churches separated by one of the world’s narrowest houses. If you look closely, you’ll find Carmo Church (on the right) and Carmelitas Church (on the left).
Both curches are open monday to friday from 7:15am to 7pm; saturdays, sundays and holidays from 9am to 6:45pm.
The admission is free for the church and there is a fee to enter the museum, catacombs and Casa Escondida.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Big church just in the center of the city and a "must" if your visit. Amazing typical protuguese architecture and decoration.
