Taking this 1.5 mile (2.4 km) walk through the heart of downtown Portland offers an immersive exploration into the city's rich tapestry of history, culture, and innovation.
Portland, often celebrated for its quirk and progressive ideals, unfolds its stories through a series of iconic landmarks, bustling public squares, and artistic expressions that color its streets. Your guide will reveal Portland's past through the emerging landscape.
Encounter vibrant murals and sculptures along the street. Enjoy the harmony between architecture and environment. Even the smallest park in America claims its fame among the city's many green spaces.
The City of Portland dates back to the pioneer days, and we will share how it changed from a thick forest, to the rugged "stumptown," to the vibrant little city you'll tour.
