From the natural wonders of the Columbia River Gorge to the Pearl District’s thriving arts scene, Portland offers diverse opportunities for fun and adventure.

It is a city planned with the future in mind—a future that offers its residents alternatives to reliance on oil. Whether you prefer fly fishing or live theater, coffeehouses or pubs, a cozy B&B or an upscale spa, this authoritative guide shows you how to navigate “the most livable city in the United States.”
