Praça do Infante D. Henrique, Garden at Porto's commercial center, Portugal

The Infante Dom Henrique garden features landscaped pathways and green spaces surrounding a central monument in downtown Porto.

Established in 1885 on the former grounds of São Domingos Convent, this garden marks the location near Prince Henry the Navigator's birthplace.

The garden's central statue, cast in Paris and unveiled in 1900, represents Prince Henry, a key figure in Portuguese maritime discoveries.

The garden includes an underground parking facility and sits adjacent to the Stock Exchange Palace and São Francisco Church.

The garden's position at the intersection of Mouzinho da Silveira and Nova da Alfândega streets reflects Porto's 19th-century urban planning.

Location: Cedofeita, Santo Ildefonso, Sé, Miragaia, São Nicolau e Vitória
