O Porriño est le cœur du secteur industrialisé de la Galice et ce, depuis des siècles, la région est riche en granit.

History

Le fils le plus aimé d'O Porriño est le célèbre architecte Antonio Palacios. Il aimait utiliser le granit local comme matériau de construction, dont le meilleur exemple est le Palacio Municipal dans le centre ville. Le nom de famille Palacios apparaît sur plusieurs bâtiments et monuments autour de la ville.

The Road

Le camino quitte la ville en empruntant la N550. À l'extrémité nord de la ville, tu traverseras un rond-point en restant sur ta droite. Peu après, la route passe sous l'autoroute, et le sentier quitte la route immédiatement après. Après être passé sous l'autoroute, regarde sur ta droite pour trouver un tunnel qui passe sous la bretelle de sortie. Il te mènera jusqu'à Ameirolongo.

We are staying here a day recuperating from injuries and have found everyone from the staff at Hotel Parque, the clerks at market, the used bookstore owner, the school children practicing their English in the plaza to be very helpful and friendly.

I was surprised but I agree with previous negative comments. We didn’t experienced any particular negative moments,but atmosphere in the city makes you feel uncomfortable somehow and you really willing to leave it as soon as possible.

I’m not quite sure where the negative comments are coming from about it not being a welcoming or enjoyable place to stay, but I found my stay here to be awesome. There were great restaurants with very friendly people and a vibrant community. The center Square had entertainment as did the main pedestrian/shopping road. I wish every town was this lively.

The place is incredible! The fridge was stocked with free beers, juice, water, and snacks. The bed was incredibly comfortable and spotlessly clean. The space was vast and well-appointed, and the security codes on the locks were a convenient touch. We had an amazing time there and highly recommend it. The staff also suggested Restaurante Castro, where we had some incredible meals. The octopus and fish were particularly delicious.

We were not welcomed here. The staff at the cafe would not speak to us. We ended up leaving and staying in Mos where we were welcomed

O Porrino is a bit depressing, especially if it’s cold and rainy. If you can keep going past it, it gets much nicer. If you’re walking from Tui to O Porrino, definitely take the scenic route at the splitting of the ways (a few km out of Tui). It’s about 1.5km longer but is really worth it.

If I want to stay overnight in Vigo instead of Porrino, what are the most convenient way of public transportation?

As you leave O Porrino the edge of town has a walking bridge in construction but the markers do not give a good clear way to the detour.
