Incredible up close look at roses in the Rose CityBeautifully organized garden of roses that is a must see for anyone visiting Portland.

Don't miss it!This rose garden is one of the best we've ever seen! Beautifully landscaped in terraces overlooking the city, it should not be missed in your trip to Portland. Every plot is labeled, and there is a wonderful gift shop, too. Spectacular!2 of 2 Yahoo! Users found this review helpfulOVERALLAtmosphereValue

Do not forget to walk up the hillto the Japanese gardens. The largest in the US. Just wonderful. A place I visit every time I am in Portland. It is not free but worth every penny. I had never visited one prior to my first trip there. I fell in love right away.
