We went up this large hill where Washington Park is and the famous International Rose Test Gardens!
This is the oldest continuing test gardens in the U.S.! And one of only five in the world!
Here you'll see row after row of gorgeous roses! Hundreds of them. And still blooming at the end of October! But the climate is much more temperate than in the Midwest!
And click on
the last pic
and you'll see
that the gardens
are way above
the city with
panoramic views!
When I was in Portland about 20 years ago there where gradens up above the city, I think they call the the chines sunken gradens up on a hill that looked down on the City oh well it has ben a lone time
