Start [[Downtown]] and visit the [[Ground Kontrol]] for a great experience for the kids, at any age, or drop by the [[Living Room Theater]] to check out a show.  If you are not into movies and want a cool hangout, drop by [[Backspace]].


The first week of the month offers [[First Thursday]]. Head towards [[Fareless Square]] for many galleries, then onward to the [[Portland Police Historical Museum]] for historical events known as the start of the [[Portland State University]] campus.

== Things To Do in Portland ==
|}
Catch a [[Little 500]] bicycle race in April.  Visit the [[4th Street Art Festival]] in September, or the [[Lotus World Music and Arts Festival]] in the summer.  See an [[IU Men's Basketball]] game at the famed [[Assembly Hall]], or come [[Downtown]] for the [[Arts Fair on the Square]] and [[The Taste of Portland]]. If the summer heat is unbearable, take a drive down [[SR 446]] or [[Fairfax Road]] to the shores of [[Lake Monroe]], and two not-to-miss state recreational sites, [[Paynetown]] or [[Fairfax]].

== Places To Go Near Portland ==
== Portals ==
[[Mt. Hood]], [[Mt. St. Helens]] and the [[Pacific Ocean]] are all within a two hour drive from Portland.  These are all great places to be during the few months of the year when it is not raining - basically, July 4th - October 4th.
<div style="width:1000px;">


[[Multnoma Falls]] is the biggest waterfall in the region.  You will be pleasantly surprised if you take the [[Old Highway]] along [[The Gorge]].  There are dozens of small, beautiful waterfalls.

== Where To Eat in Portland ==
<div style="float: left; width: 320px;">
Visit Restaurant Row on [[4th Street]] for a variety of international dining, and check out the [[Snow Lion]] for an unusual Tibetan experience.  [[Nick's English Hut]] is a Portland tradition, but [[Scotty's]], [[Yogi's]], and the [[Irish Lion]] also cater to the over-21 student crowd.  The west side has a variety of steak houses, but vegetarians might prefer the [[Runcible Spoon]] or [[Roots]].  For locally crafted beverages, don't miss [[Lennie's]], [[Upland Brewery]], or [[Oliver Winery]].
