Portland OR - Washington Park 5

Up in the West Hills that rise sharply behind downtown Portland, this beautiful park is among the nicest I've seen. Some parts are thickly forested, other parts you'll find the Zoo, Forestry center, and the deepest subway station in North America (for the light rail trains). The Japanese Gardens in this park are outstanding, and there is one spot in the park that has a million dollar view of Portland with the downtown skyline and Mt. Hood as a backdrop.
