Portland: Romantic Hotels with Jacuzzi in Room
Portland, Oregon is a mecca for nature lovers. This lively city in the Pacific Northwest is known for its mild temperatures, many gardens and youthful vibe. The walker’s paradise features the largest urban wilderness in the United States, Forest Park, and the 30-mile Wildwood Trail. In fact, Forest Park is over 5,000 acres of protected woodlands right in the middle of downtown Portland. If you like wildlife, be sure to stop by the Oregon Zoo. Located in popular Washington Park, it is known for its Asian elephant breeding program and, while not large, makes for an enjoyable afternoon. Another popular outdoor activity is the Portland Saturday Market; it is the nation’s largest outdoor arts and crafts event. Filling North Waterfront Park every Saturday, the Market offers something for everyone, including handmade candles, custom jewelry and photography. Portland, like much of the Pacific Northwest, receives its fair share of wet weather. If you are traveling on a rainy day, be sure to stop by one of the many museums and art galleries that the city has to offer. The Portland Museum is both a great way to stay dry and has a large collection of contemporary art on display for your viewing pleasure.
