Espinho
Character and Identity: The Riviera of the North - a beach city with a casino and a vacation atmosphere. Less popular than Póvoa, more urban.
National Role: A tourist destination and a center for music and festivals (the famous jazz festival).
Historical Development: Became a city only in 1899. The casino (from 1928) and the long beach attracted tourists from Porto and afar.
Interesting Facts: The streets of Espinho are arranged in a perfect grid pattern, something rare in Portugal. This was done intentionally in the 19th century to create a "modern" city.
