Portland Aerial Tram
#timetotravel We stopped by to see the Portland Aerial Tram which was pretty cool as it smoothly carries passengers on a viewing deck.
It's also right where the 4T is—trail, tram, trolley, and train. As someone who's fascinated by public transportation systems, this was wonderful to see. I hope I can ride that tram some day when I come back though

The World's Largest Independent Bookstore
#timetotravel What an awesome place Powell's City of Books is. When I jokingly said to our relatives here, "Drop uncle and I off here and we'll close the store." We kinda did. Uncle and I went separately inside and ended up roaming and looking at books until closing time. We spent roughly 2 hours there and it was fun! The bookstore is huge with lots of sections or multi-colored zones. I noticed some books were sold cheaper here than on Amazon or even in Hong Kong's eslite. I bought a copy of Nonviolent Communication by Rosenberg (my first ever bought book! 😁) and it was the last copy. I even took home a free map of the bookstore and free bookmarks.
Would I go here again? Absolutely! There's even a cafe inside.

Portland Japanese Garden
#timetotravel There's something I learned when we visited the Portland Japanese Garden. My uncle said it was an act of goodwill by the American government after World War 2.
They didn't want Americans to fully hate the Japanese and instead have a cultural exchange by establishing Japanese gardens in USA. It was to learn from each other.
I was amazed by the thought of it and I'd really like to see more places like this. It was so peaceful here, a nice break from the city life.

The Pittock Mansion
It's really #timetotravel to Portland, Oregon and see for yourself the gorgeous Pittock Mansion. What's more is that it's a historical site because the founders of Portland lived here.
We saw their bedrooms and their belongings, along with the other rich families of Portland. It's also like a time machine as we saw how kitchens and bathrooms looked back then.

Glorious Portland!
Portland is an absolutely fantastic place to visit in the south of England. The peninsula is only connected to the mainland by a very long beach made of small pebbles. The historic lighthouse is beautiful and the various small museums, cafes, and restaurants dotted across Portland are fabulous. You can really feel the history of pirates and piracy as you explore the area! The fort, managed by English Heritage, is well worth a visit.#portland #Englishheritage #Portlandcastle #england #englandtravel

🍢😋🍢暖身食辣串之地
Great spot with various flavors and a taste of something different than you’re used to. It’s pretty unclear unless you’ve been there before I guess. You can pick whatever skewers you want at the counter and they’ll either fry or boil them for you. If you get them boiled you get a bowl of delightful broth with some kind of noodles or rice.
We ordered the Hometown Assorted Chicken Rice Noodles and Beef skewers Soup Bowl, that allowed us to choose our own ingredients. Like squid, chicken, beef, veggies, pork etc. We came here because we wanted something spicy 🌶 and quick. The atmosphere was relaxed with some pretty good Chinese music playing. We are glad that we went there and we will go back to try more food!

Light The Way Forward! Portland Lighthouse 🇬🇧
The south of England contains many scenic treasures. The peninsula of Portland is amongst the greatest of these, and a journey to the lighthouse on its very tip is well worth the effort. Indeed Portland Lighthouse stands on the very edge of the peninsula, jutting out towards France and the Atlantic Ocean. It has a majestic sweeping view out to sea. From here you could sail to the Americas without seeing another dot of land. The visitors centre is well worth checking out. The visitors centre contains a small museum, and for extra money visitors can ascend the tower itself. There is also a lovely gift shop. Nearby visitors will find a restaurant and cafe with a small shop. The views from the cafes outside seats are breathtaking!#england #beachlife #Lighthouse #Portland #Southwest

I stayed at the Tru by Hilton for a weekend getaway to Portland Maine. The hotel was clean and comfortable. While it was no high and or luxurious hotel, I feel for younger people this would make a very good stay.
The hotel lobby had breakfast and a small store type thing at the front desk which was nice. There were also games and a pool table in the lobby.
The location was okay, while it wasn’t as close as I wanted to be to downtown it was a reasonable accommodation for the price differences.
Overall I would stay here again to save some money!

Began with short train ride from Seattle ...
The Tourist Doughnut
If you ever do some research on what to eat in Portland, Voodoo Doughnut will definitely show up on the list. There will also be a line when you get there, so, be prepared to wait. I spent 30 minutes in line but the wait was worth it as the interior design looks cute.
Here is my little personal review about Voodoo Doughnut. The donuts are cute, they're very instagramable. However, the donuts are too sweet. My local friend who stays in Portland told me that this is the donuts the tourists eat. He thinks the donuts are too sweet too.
Check out my next post to find out where's the donuts place that the local go to.
