These themes are evident in the Portland Japanese Garden. The Japanese Garden focuses more on the sophistication and beauty of gardening.

The park is very large, and is suitable for children or friends to play. When I passed by, I saw that there were not many people, which may be related to the weekday. The facilities that a general amusement park should have are also available.

Amazing... Built in 1914, the Mansion is incredible, full of history of Portland's first families. The Oreganian newspaper publisher, together with his family helped transform Portland. It is really worth to visit.

This is an important part of Portland's urban landscape and anyone interested in architecture or urban design should visit it. Yes, there are always some weird street people here, but it seemed very safe to me. Enjoy a picnic on the steps in front of the fountain, relax, read a book, or just take in the local atmosphere.
