Norte, Portugal
Região Norte (
pron. IPA [];
English: North Region), is a region in the northern part of
Portugal. It is a land of dense vegetation and profound historic and cultural wealth. Its capital is the city of
Porto. The region has 4,034,271 inhabitants (2007), and its area is 21,278 km² (density of 173 inhabitants per square kilometre). It is one of five
regions of Mainland Portugal (
NUTS II subdivisions). The Norte is a culturally varied region, thus historical rivalry between different neighbouring cities and towns are very common, although with strong common Portuguese identity, but unlike other regions where every city and town are culturally very similar.
