Forest Park

Portland Classical Chinese Garden
Every pebble, tile and stone of this garden was imported directly from China to bring you the most authentic chinese garden anywhere outside of China.
Powell's City of Books
The largest independent bookstore in the United States. Three stories, each room is categorized by a different color, each color representing a different genre or section. Includes coffee shop/ cafe inside.
Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall
The infamous giant "Portland" sign outside of it, obviously. Never been inside, but walking by, the architecture inside looks incredible.
Pioneer Courthouse Square
This place usually always has something exciting going on here (Comedian Dave Chappelle recently made a surprise appearance here) and provides an amazing view of downtown's architecture. Located right in the middle of many downtown Portland attractions, Pioneer square is a must see for anyone visiting Portland.
Bagdad Theatre & Pub
amazing locally brewed beer and breath taking architecture come together for a very interesting movie theatre experience.
