[quote=Anonymous]Portland has a lot of fun, walkable neighborhoods.  Depends what you're in to.  The Pearl District is a very nice neighborhood for walking/shopping/galleries.  North Missisippi Ave is also fun (hipster) neighborhood.  Andina is an amazing restaurant, but Portland is a real foodie town and there are many excellent restaurants.  Pok Pok and Luc Lac are my favorites. McMenamin's is a popular local chain of brewpubs--check out Kennedy School.  Powell's books is a must-visit.  If you have transportation, Multnomah Falls (about 30 miles away) is a tourists' favorite--though you can hike a short loop behind the waterfall at nearby Horsetail Falls.  If you want a wine tasting at a winery, the Columbia Gorge/Hood River Valley is full of them as is the Willamette valley south of Portland.  No car?  Take the bus to Washington Park for a beautiful view of Mt. Hood from the rose garden (the postcard view)--you can also walk from downtown.  Check out Willamette Week for a listing of the free concert in the park/movies in the park/symphony in the park all summer. A walk along the east side esplanade from OMSI gives you good views of downtown too. Tourists always want donuts from VooDoo donuts.  Drink beer and coffee, don't carry an umbrella.
