Learn About Portland, OR, USA

No other destination offers Portland’s mix of natural beauty, creative culture, and delicious cuisine. Get outdoors in an urban forest or the nearby Columbia River Gorge, Mount Hood, or Oregon Coast. Taste the local bounty at food carts, restaurants, farmers’ markets, microbreweries, wineries, and coffee roasters. Connect with diverse communities and discover a makers’ scene that invites you to explore your creative side. Shop — tax-free — from independent shops in neighborhoods all around the city and end every night with live music. Find yourself here, and plan to come early or stay late to enjoy all that Portland has to offer.
