Things to do in Douglas County

There are two Sequoia parks. One is in the north of San Francisco, called Sequoia National Park. The other is between Las Vegas and San Francisco. Near Death Valley, is Sequoia and King's Canyon Park. I went to the latter. There are the first big trees, because of seasonal reasons, many canyons are not open. I went to the canyon from 4 to 5 days. There is some snow on the mountain. It's a very free journey. It's a very good park.

Washington Park, Portland Washington Park, located in the suburbs of Portland, is a natural park built on hills with a history of more than 100 years. The park includes the Portland Zoo, the World Forestry Center, the Portland Children's Museum (established in 1946, located in the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI)), the Hoyt Arboretum (with a series of coast redwoods over 150 feet high, which were the first trees planted in the arboretum in 1931), the International Rose Test Garden (established in 1917, the oldest public rose test garden in the United States), and the Portland Japanese Garden (established in 1962 on the site of the former Washington Park Zoo, after which the zoo moved to its current location). In the warm sunshine of early spring, the flowers are charming, and it is really pleasant to spend a day here.

In this experimental garden, you can see many beautiful roses, but it is mainly an experimental garden, so don’t pick them easily.

This is an important part of Portland's urban landscape and anyone interested in architecture or urban design should visit it. Yes, there are always some weird street people here, but it seemed very safe to me. Enjoy a picnic on the steps in front of the fountain, relax, read a book, or just take in the local atmosphere.

I visited the Multnomah falls in Oregon. It’s about 30 minutes driving from the Portland international airport. The falls is not wide but very tall. There is a gift store and a restaurant for which the building is more than 100 years old. I thought I just look at the falls and take a few pictures, but I realized that I could hike all the way to the top of the falls. It’s physically challenging, and I almost give up in the middle of it, but I kept going. I am so glad that I made it to the top of the falls. The amazing view and sense of accomplishment are hard to describe. I highly recommend everyone to visit and hike.

When we arrived at the state park, we encountered good weather. Under the blue sky and white clouds, the azure blue water formed a scenery that looked like the sea and sky were one color. It looked very spectacular, and there were not many tourists here.

Very nice hiking trails, but the highest point we stopped at here was easily the Powell Butte Nature Park overlook where you can see salmon

The forest park is very large, with a lot of trees in it, and it feels a bit like a primeval forest. It is more suitable for people with good physical strength and hiking experience. The air is good and the scenery is great.
