Largest in city park adjacent to the zoo and tons of trails and the Japanese and rose gardens. You could easily spend a full day here. There is a Max stop at the zoo and one within walking distance (about 12 blocks) of the townhouse.

Classic. Got to see it. Nice day drive. Take the historic highway one way. If your girl loves romance, take her to the old post office in Bridal Veil. If you have time, drive up to Hood River.

Arts & Culture

Portland's best...we're no NYC. I heard we are getting a revolving Rothko (who grew up in Portland) so that will be awesome. The area around the museum is very nice...park blocks, Portland State University, and right downtown.

Sightseeing

I like walking the bridges. Broadway is closest to the house (walking distance) and you can go back and forth over them (Steel, Burnside, Morrison, Hawthorne, Tillicum). Its Bridgetown baby!
