Portland is one of the nation's most bicycle-friendly cities, so seeing Rose City from behind a set of handle bars kind of makes sense. Let the people at Pedal Bike Tours lead the way to the city's best sights, from Historic Portland to the Columbia Gorge, to the breweries and wineries and everything in between.
See a little piece of literature that's been brought to life and immortalized at the Beverly Cleary Sculpture Garden. The sculptures here were created in the likeness of Cleary's most beloved characters, Ramona Quimby, Henry Huggins, and the Huggins' dog Ribsy. The statues are complete with fountains that create a fun environment to play, and also feature plaques with the titles of Cleary's Portland-based stories.
Go for a ride on the Portland Aerial Tram and see the city from a whole new perspective. You'll see everything from above, from the South Waterfront district to the Oregon Health & Science University campus. The ride averages about three minutes long.
