An unprecedented two‐dimensional porphyrin network featuring dynamic pores capable of hosting fullerenes is realized following a bottom‐up approach at a single‐crystal silver surface. Surface‐ and porphyrin‐driven long‐range interactions between the C 60 guest molecules and porphyrin layer result in the formation of exceptionally large supramolecular hybrid chains and islands (see Figure and Cover).
