Chinese Garden

One of my favorite things in Portland was the Chinese Garden. It was a bit of a fluke that we ended up there, but I was so glad we did. It was on my “maybe” list of places to go. But, we ate lunch at an oyster bar downtown (I did NOT have oysters – eeewwwyuck), and I realized the Chinese garden was only a few blocks walk away.

Well, it was so beautiful we ended up spending the rest of the afternoon there. If I lived in Portland I would need a membership to the garden because I would spend a lot of time there.

It was a beautiful place to be. Very peaceful and the most wonderful vistas. It’s on a city block, but seems much larger. I guess that’s a standard with gardens of this type.

One of my favorite parts were the various walkways, which featured rocks in different designs. It was gorgeous. I will be writing more about it, but wanted to share just a little bit.
