Nice walk...Cool shot of Mount Hood...Thanks for your Video.
we were so lucky to have clear skies! It was actually quite beautiful! Thanks again for your support!!
Thank you for sharing this! I love the city and cannot wait to get back there one day.
You are most welcome!!😀👍 thanks so much for watching!!!
@@SwiftyTravels The tourism board really should hire you to help foster tourism. You really showed the city in a positive light!
@@grdn02100 thank you so much!!
Portland feels like a much more pleasant, calm city compared to most American cities (though I've only been to NYC and Pittsburgh, so don't have a lot to compare) - great video tour! That book shop looked insane, could have easily spent days getting lost in there.
It definitely was a good day and isn’t always this calm… this city definitely has its problems!! 😂 thank you though! It was a nice walk!!
Make sure you are packing
If you really have an appreciation for the beauty of nature, Portland and Oregon have a lot to offer. there are tons and tons and tons of trees and forest everywhere you go.
Yes! There is so much nature in & around the city 😀👍
We haven't made it to Portland yet (or anywhere in the state of Oregon for that matter). It was cool to kind of get a feel for parts of the downtown area as you walked. I could spend many hours in Powell's Books. That might end up being my favorite thing in Portland when we finally get out there. Thanks for sharing this walking tour with us!
Thank you! This area has so much to see!!!
Born and raised here the Charles Berg used to be a super popular shopping place with restaurants and stores. Went there all the time as a teenager and older. The best place to get clothes and great restaurants
The building is beautiful thank you for the info
The area feels safe to me
feels safe to me ???? is it 8:30 am ??? lol on a Tuesday ........
Yes. If you want trouble hang around Old Town late Saturday night.
The scooters were all stolen or tossed in the river.
The news story by the library is about all the fent camps that are camped around the brand new library. They just remodeled LO. L
Except they aren't there anymore.
Ambulance is headed to a OD
I know there is a serious problem- we did witness an od call later after dinner in the area. 😢
NOT SAFE, Head over to union station where people have to catch a train or bus, then tell me.
Yep. Did that last month. Everything was just fine.
what an empty streets
Surprisingly, it was!
She isn't showing the real downtown.
It looks like downtown Portland to me. It's not a suburb. Been here since 1984. This is indeed downtown Portland. You should take your negative bias elsewhere. Maybe Salem?
@@akahinadid downtown Portland get better or is it bad still
@@bhuvanordhruv Well, my eldest nephew was there in Jan/Feb and he said he felt as if he'd visited the worlds largest open air drug market, cops basically ineffectual and/or numb to it. He said it was sad b/c it used to be one of our cleanest cities and a lot of peoples favorite US city and this video could've been shot in the early 2000's.
I've never been there, but I've been to Seattle several times and LOVED it - it would break my heart today from what we see/read/hear.
I'm not from there, but I've seen in the news that Portland passed a law about a month ago outlawing sidewalk tent camping if there is shelter space available. The videos I've seen since from other youtubers seem like this has gone a long way already in a short time. Seeing as this video is only 2 weeks old, it's gotta be a pretty accurate representation.
Ah, keen eye. That was in fact the giant replica downtown Portland built on the same stage where they filmed the moon landing.
Jesus, the word "Tour" is NOT pronounced "Tore". It has a U in it. Itmis pronounced "TWO-er"
I live in Portland. Your video fails in so many ways. You fail to show the hundreds of homeless tents all over downtown. Buildings thst spray painted with gang symbols and piles of human excrement on the sidewalk
Sorry you are disappointed. I had heard how bad it had gotten and I was honestly surprised it was not as bad as I was expecting. There was no agenda, I was honestly just walking from our hotel to PSU then back to Powells, and that is what we saw. He did cross some homeless and a tent on the street at the end on Broadway and Burnside. I’m sure there are worse areas and of course areas by the freeway were rough but we were not walking there. Thanks for taking the time to check it out and comment.
