This is the Douro River, viewed from high atop the Ponte Luis I (the Luis I Bridge). Porto, Portugal, is to the right. Vila Nova de Gaia, the suburb on the southern shore of Douro, is on the left. Squint really really hard and you still will not be able to see all of Port Wine cellars found in Vila Nova. They're all there, on that side of the Douro, rather than the Porto side.
It was a beautiful day that day in September 2017 when I visited Porto. So here's the original uncropped photo in living color:
Blue water. Red tile roofs. Grey metal on the bridge rail. You don't need many crayolas in the box of 64 to color this scene, but it's still very colorful.
