CITY GUIDE

  1. 1 Catch a show at one of our fave venues in the country, the Doug Fir Lounge.
  2. 2 Visit Forest Park, the largest urban park in all of the United States. Hike, bike, or just take it all in.
  3. 3 No matter what your beliefs are, the Grotto or National Sanctuary of Our Sorrowful Mother is a tranquil spot with 62-acres of breathtaking gardens.
  4. 4 Portland has lots of great shopping streets, like NW 23rd Ave., NE Alberta St., N. Mississippi Ave. and SE Hawthorne—and, yeah, the city really is kinda like that uh, one TV show.
  5. 5 Portland's food scene rules. Eat a biscuit the size of your face at Pine State Biscuits.
