PortlandNeighborhood's Guide to the Perfect Portland Weekend
Are you visiting Portland? Or are you a local looking for fun
things to do? Then you'll love this handy weekend themed guide to
Portland! First of all, to know Portland is to know that it is not a city.
Portland is a culture. We may not always be on the same page, but
together we’re writing a really good story. Ultimately, it’s a
story about America, the way it used to be – before every corner block
in every city offered the same three restaurants, before driving out of
one town and into another became an indistinguishable experience, before
the illusion of choice became mistaken for freedom.
But this book isn’t a political manifesto. It’s a celebration.
It’s an exaltation about the way in which Portlanders have banded
together to rejoice in difference. In the process we couldn’t
help but set ourselves apart. This book shares how the unique and special are manifested
within Portland’s distinct and inimitable neighborhoods, their
businesses, and their people.
Rather than simply list and review establishments, however, we
thought you might find yourself better able to navigate the plethora of
options available in our fine burg of over four-score individually
styled neighborhoods if we devised a pattern of approach. In other
words, we’ve attempted to make Portland more mentally accessible,
possible to wrap your mind around, by conceiving every chapter as
representing a different hypothetical weekend, each with its own theme.
You can follow one of our themed weekends from A-Z...or you can
choose to sit back, laugh yourself silly and have a great time mixing
and matching ideas from chapter to chapter, creating your own perfectly
tailored, exceptionally unique Portland weekend. Even if you never
leave the couch, you'll have a great time!
Put that yawn away and get set to have a blast with our weekend guide
to Portland, Oregon. But be ready – this is not your grandma’s
travel guide. This just isn’t that book. No endless listings that blur
in abstraction here. Instead, the pages read like a friend having taken
you by the arm, inviting and guiding you into and through the Portland
that makes Portland tick and that Portlanders themselves call home.
We've read every single guide book to Portland and have found nothing
that comes even close to what we have been able to capture in this
tell-all guide to your perfect Portland weekend. We've left no stone
unturned in our research and promise even a long-term Portlander will
discover something new and fascinating about our fabulous city.
