For our family and friends not from Oregon, we're so excited to have you travel to come to the PNW. Here are some recommended places to see if you have the extra time!
Oregon Zoo
4001 Southwest Canyon Road, Portland, OR 97221
Our shared love of animals, this is one of our favorite spots to go to together multiple times a year. The zoo since COVID has started doing online timed tickets only, so check the website out and reserve your time ahead.
OMSI
1945 Southeast Water Avenue, Portland, OR 97214
One of our frequent date spots! New exhibits pop up throughout the year and we love to go. Our favorite special exhibit was the Marvels one in Summer 2022.
Portland Art Museum
1219 Southwest Park Avenue, Portland, OR 97205
Powell's City of Books
1005 West Burnside Street, Portland, OR 97209
Portland Japanese Garden
611 Southwest Kingston Avenue, Portland, OR 97205
International Rose Test Garden
400 Southwest Kingston Avenue, Portland, OR 97205
Pittock Mansion Park Viewpoint
3229 Northwest Pittock Drive, Portland, OR 97210
One of the best view points of Portland skyline. If you're up for a hike, there's also a hiking point at the bottom of the mansion.
Sauvie Island
Washington Square
9585 Southwest Washington Square Road, Portland, OR 97223
For my shoppers, Oregon is tax free, so here's a shopping mall we frequent ourselves. We highly recommend this area versus Pioneer Square, another popular shopping area.
