Attractions: Portland
16. International Rose Test Garden
Visit one of the largest and oldest rose test gardens in the country—for free. The International Rose Test Garden, just minutes from downtown Portland in Washington Park, has 7,000 rose bushes, spectacular views of the city and an onsite Rose Garden Gift Shop (call for hours). The garden is open daily, 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. Local tip: During summer, visit in the early evening when it’s cooler and less crowded. Additionally, Peninsula Park Rose Garden has 6,500 rose plantings and is located in North Portland; and Ladd’s Addition Garden, which features 3,000 roses, sits in the historic Southeast Portland neighborhood of the same name.
