Portland Oregon: Cool Things To Do // Destinations Explained

No mention of POWELL'S???!?!?!
Also, the McMenamin's brewpubs are something to check out- they have a knack for rescuing old buildings and making really distinctive restaurants out of them- and more! The former county poor farm (Edgefield) is now a full complex with hotel/resort, restaurants, brewery, winery, distillery, etc etc. A derelict elementary school (Kennedy School) has become a hotel where you sleep in an old classroom, as well as community center, movie theatre, meeting rooms, several restaurants, bars, brewery, and even a soaking pool! There's a former wedding/funeral chapel (Chapel Pub) with the bar in the main nave, The Crystal Ballroom, etc etc...Similar flavor, but all different!
And ignore the naysayers. Portland is 145 sq miles. 4 blocks of protesters downtown is scarcely a blip on the radar. The homeless problem is no worse that other cities of similar size, especially on the temperate West Coast.
And if you come in the rainy season, bring a parka, not an umbrella. An umbrella marks you as an outsider. :-)

Are you showing Multnomah falls AFTER the august 2017 HUGE wildfire burn, caused by a criminal with fireworks 💥?? Or before… ?

This is one of the better travel videos I've seen--good job!! The only thing you REALLY should have included is Powell's Bookstore (it's only the largest independent book store in the world afterall) 😉

Awesome! Good work!

Great video thanks!

This was a good 'synopsis'. Portland appreciates you.

clack an ass

Check out all the homeless we have. Make sure you’re armed and can defend yourself. Enjoy PDX and good luck.

The city is exceptionally poorly run when it comes to crime and allowing criminals to prey on people.

GREAT VIDEO!!! THANK YOU! Perfect information for my firts visit to Portland.

Don't worry... if Mt Hood were to erupt, we'd get some warning like we did with Mt St Helens. 2 months before it erupted, the mountain registered many small earthquakes and the side of the mountain started to bulge.

Great vid
Can someone tell me what part of Portland should a single lady stay away from to avoid being raped robbed and murdered?
I hear parts are drug infested.
Thank you

Don't forget how queer-friendly Portland is. It's lovely, especially if you're used to less welcoming places.

Corvallis has a good rose garden too

Thx for sharing.

I use to live in Multnomah village I wonder what it is like now or dare I wonder 😢

Thanks, amigo. However, I had to thumbs down for the accursed Vodoo Donut segment. Those people are not wise. That was repugnant.

Well done!

great production quality!

Portland Oregon is a dumpster fire🔥 complete wash out!

3 years ago Portland was nice ...now due to its liberal policies it's a communist infested shithole.

Portland Native, the quality and quantity of meth, fentanyl, street feces and leftist morons is something all tourists should witness. Go home and then don't let it happen to your town

I've had no problems since you did this, none whatsoever, if you can help me you can help anybody

This is an incredible video and guide, wow. Thank you so much. The maps are so cool!

The reason those donut shops are so popular, is because most of the citizens are stoners.

I love Portland! I always fly into Seattle first. The homeless situation is sad as it is anywhere but it doesn’t ruin anything for me. I traveled all around the city and outside. Took the ex wife to all her Twilight film locations and just enjoyed the Pacific Northwest!

You get to walk through human shit, has a great day

Nice Video.. Head tp Portland Hopefully Soon Thanks

STAY OUT OF PORTLAND IF YOU WANT TO STAY SAFE!

This is a high quality video. Thanks for the work put into it :)

We pronounce TriMet like with a long “I” sounds like TryMet.

TOMBSTONE BUKKAKE AT GARY FRANK'S FUNERAL SITE. PROSTITUTION HAS BEEN IN SINCE LUKE MET LAURA AND ANNE KINDER/YURNER MET DON KINDER AT ONE OF HER DAD'S GREEN RIVER SHIN DIGS. ANNE TAUGHT AMY THE TUG THE ROPES & THAT IS HOW SHE MET JEREMY OF THE OREGON CITIZEN'S ALLIANCE. EVEN TRUDY GODFREY HAS BEEN KNOWN TO PROSTITUTE ON HER TIME OFF.

You completely lost me when you said Voodoo doughnuts were the best on the planet 😂

2 years ago maybe. Today, Apr 23, you find Portland ruled by drugs, panhandlers, muggers killers etc. The Mayor and the council will not do anything for fear of social media critiques that would effect their electability. Come to Portland at your own risk!

Portland has been destroyed permanently. Just sold my house.

Portland is a shithole.
Get rid of your 950.- law and the homeless

Too many words like homeless drug addicts aggressive panhandling. Being assaulted going to and from your hotel. The smell of dope from the legal dope. Portland is a cesspool and I wouldn't want anybody I know to visit it.

Miss the Neighbors southwest area of Beaverton. Loved growing up there

This video just came into my feed. Very informative. I'm thinking of moving to Portland from LA in 2 or 3 years and this was a good sampling of places - some I knew about and some I didn't.

Only have one complaint/comment-the hill on top of Rocky Butte is not Joseph Wood Park, its Joesph Wood Hill Park, named after Joseph Hill who formerly ran Hill Military Academy on Rocky Butte

Your video was wonderful!
