About

Portland is a colorful, eclectic city in the Pacific Northwest and the largest city in Oregon. It sits on the Willamette and Columbia Rivers, with snowcapped Mt. Hood looming in the distance, offering panoramic views. You get the best of all worlds in Portland, a thriving city with fantastic restaurants and coffee shops, plus lots of accessible nature nearby. Check out the Japanese Garden and Powell’s City of Books, and don’t forget to grab an iconic pink box of donuts at Voodoo Doughnut. If you’re feeling adventurous, take a day trip to visit some of the many mossy waterfalls in the Columbia River Gorge or hike around Mt. Hood National Forest for a close-up view of the enormous stratovolcano.
