Attractions: Portland


5. Oregon Zoo

Oregon ZooTrek through the tropics amid the sounds of birds, monkeys and other creatures. You’re not in West Africa; you’re in Portland at the zoo’s African Rain Forest exhibit. After you’ve survived the steamy tropics, dry off in the savanna, where giraffes, rhinos and hippos graze. From the crest of the Cascade Mountains to the coastal waters of Peru, travel around the world in an afternoon. Open daily at 9 a.m.; closing hours are seasonal. Admission charged; children two and younger free. Five minutes from downtown on Hwy. 26 West, or take MAX light rail.
