Farm-to-table restaurants will give you a taste of local cuisine, while art and historic museums will satisfy your knowledge about the past events there.

An interesting fact to note is that the capital, Portland has more breweries than any other city in the world! You will be able to choose from 60 within the city limits.

Known worldwide is the amazing Crater Lake, the deepest lake in the USA. These are just two of the many wonderful things you will find in this diverse state.

31. The Astoria Column

This enormous tower overlooks the mouth of the Columbia River in Astoria. It was built in 1926, and stands 125 feet high.
There is an observation deck at the top, although you will need to climb up the 164 steps to reach it. The column was erected by the Great Northern Railway, and is now part of the National Historic Places in the country. Note the interesting murals around it.
The climb to the observation deck is only recommended if you are healthy and not advisable for small children. Allow a half day to see the tower, and climb up. The view will be worth it!

32. Nobuo Fujita’s Sword

You will find this interesting piece in the Brookings Public Library. It was a peace offering from a Japanese pilot to the town of Oregon, after he had bombed the area.
The sword is 400 years old, and the pilot returned to the area after the war to plant some trees. He also offered his sword as a token of friendship.
The plaque beneath the sword reads that it was offered ‘in the interest of peace and friendship’.
The library as well as the town is interesting to look around, so allow yourself a day to do this.

33. Fort Rock

This interesting rock formation is called a ‘tuff ring’, and you can find it on an Ice Age lake bed in lake County.
The edges are from volcanic rock which rises up about 200 feet. The diameter is about 4,400 feet, and the straight sides are what give the rock their name.
This is a great place to hike, and is very well known for this. This is not too far from the ‘Hole in the Ground’, so it is a good idea to combine the two when visiting.
You can take an RV and stay a few days while you check them out.

34. Eat oysters

You will find hundreds of places in Portland where you can taste oysters. Menus will vary in shape and size of them, but basically you will find they are served on a bed of ice, with a splash of hot pepper sauce on the side.
A good tip here is to find a place that serves them during ‘Happy Hour’; as this is when you will get them at half price.

35. Cascades Raptor Centre

This nature center in Eugene is home to over 50 different types of birds of prey, including owls, raptors, and vultures. It is one of the largest collections in the northwest of the USA.
While the birds live in captivity, they are in wooded property through the area, and seem to be in the wild. All the birds have been rescued or have become too dependent on humans to survive alone.
The center takes in some 200 birds each year, they are then cared for until well enough to be released.
Plan to spend a day here, you can walk around and see the enormous birds close up.
