Traveling to Portland, what are some must sees? |
Travel Info I'm going to be there for a week. Travel Tips You're going to have a great time! I'd recommend a few things. For starters, if you like hiking and nature, I'd recommend driving out to Multnomah Falls, which is a 542 foot waterfall with a beautiful hike to the top of it. Another fun hiking spot is Forest Park, which is the largest city park in the country. It's really beautiful and is great for exercise. For shopping, I'd recommend Saturday Market, which is an outdoor event we have every Saturday and Sunday. There are hand-made goods, great food, and fun performers. It takes place in Old Town on the west side of Portland. Another great shopping area is along NW 23rd St. It's a strip of cool boutiques and local shops. It's known to be the best shopping in Portland. I'd recommend people watching in Pioneer Square and having lunch from one of the food carts along 5th Ave. OMSI (the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry) is our signature science museum. Its great for kids but we also have adult exhibits. Right now Body Worlds 3 is being shown there. Also we have a really cool cruise called the Portland Spirit that travels down our main river. They have day and dinner cruises. I'd also say that a nice area to visit is Seaside, which is a cute little beach town about an hour and a half from Portland. There's shopping, restaurants, and fun things to see, as well as a gorgeous beach. Just be sure to go on a warm day. Our coast is notorious for cold weather any time outside of summer. Have a great time!! Source(s): Info on Multnomah Falls: http://www.waterfallsnorthwest.com/water... Saturday Market: http://www.portlandsaturdaymarket.com/...
