Synopsis:

Hottest ticket to Portland

Put that yawn away and get ready for a trip with PortlandNeighborhood.com's weekend guide to Portland, Oregon. But if you're looking for boring, colorless listings of restaurants and attractions that drone on and blur in abstraction, you might just want to bend your elbow the other direction and set this volume down. This just isn't that book. Rather, the pages here read like a friend having taken you by the arm, inviting and guiding you into and through the Portland that makes Portland tick and that Portlanders themselves call home. Using themed weekend itineraries based on interest types to make the city more mentally accessible, PortlandNeighborhood's Guide to the Perfect Portland Weekend is like a backstage pass to what makes Portland a rock star
