Wander through Museu Romântico, a period house museum in Porto. Explore two floors of furnishings and curios, then step into the gardens for views over the river.
Full description
Museu Romântico is set in a historic house on two floors, with several exhibition rooms showing period art, furniture and curiosities arranged in a gallery style. Reviewers note that it is small but rich in content if you read the descriptions, and the gardens offer scenic river views.
Occasional musical concerts add to the atmosphere. It suits a slow, quiet visit of about 45 minutes, with a mix of romantic and slightly eccentric displays.

Reviews
I enjoyed seeing the gallery-style displays of curios, stylishly presented, and talking to the knowledgeable and interesting attendant. I would come back here for a musical concert, or with visitors to Porto for a pleasant glimpse of the past, polished to a shine.
