Located on the west bank of the Willamette River, the South Waterfront is known for its high-rise buildings, riverfront shops, elegant restaurants, wine bars, coffee shops and cafes. Take in panoramic views of the city with a walk, bike ride or Portland Streetcar ride across the car-free Tilikum Crossing, or try a trip on the Portland Aerial Tram. For more walking and cycling trails, hop onto the South Waterfront Greenway, which stretches from the River Forum Building to the west end of the Marquam Bridge. Dining highlights include Al-Hawr Lebanese cuisine and JoLa Cafe. Find easy access to the river at Willamette Park, where you can launch your kayak, canoe or stand-up paddleboard and paddle your way upriver under Portland’s urban bridges. Look for dragon boaters practicing in the summertime. YOORAN PARK / ALAMY STOCK PHOTO South Portland Aerial Tram 9 PortlandUncovered.com
