Real Traveler reviews for Downtown Portland/City Center

More information on Downtown Portland/City Center

The heartbeat of the greater Portland area is heard loud and strong on these city streets. The ghosts of Portland's past in Old Town and Chinatown, colored canvases of the Pearl District, and the whisper of the Willamette River all sing Portland's multi-cultural anthem. MAX and TriMet public transportation offer a fareless square to maneuver about the city center. If you want to find the nearest downtown city park, look for the street-side, green jacketed Portland Guides who hand out information.
