During your Portland vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:

Oregon Zoo
Perhaps best known for its elephants, the Oregon Zoo has the largest breeding herd of elephants in captivity. However, in recent years, the zoo has been continually adding new exhibits and has been branching out beyond the world of pachyderms. The Africa exhibit, which includes a very lifelike rain forest and a savanna populated by zebras, rhinos, giraffes, hippos, and other animals, is one of the most true-to-life habitats you'll ever see at a zoo. Equally impressive is the Alaskan tundra exhibit, with grizzly bears, wolves, and musk oxen. The Cascade Crest exhibit includes mountain goat habitat, and in the Steller Cove exhibit, you can watch the antics of Steller sea lions and sea otters. Also, don't miss the bat house. At press time, there were plans to open a new Amazon Flooded Forest exhibit in late 2001.In the summer, there are outdoor concerts in the zoo's amphitheater; admission prices vary.

Portland Art Museum
While this relatively small art museum has a respectable collection of European, Asian, and American art, the museum has in recent years been positioning itself as the Northwest stop for touring blockbuster exhibits. Scheduled June 1 to September 22, 2002, is "Splendors of Imperial Japan (Arts of the Meiji Period from the Khalili Collection);" and, from August 17 to December 1, 2002, the museum will be showing "Grandma Moses in the 21st Century." An expansion a couple of years ago added several new galleries and a small sculpture court to the museum. The galleries of Native American art and Northwest art are now the museum's most impressive displays. October through May, on Wednesday nights, the Museum After Hours program presents live music. The adjacent Northwest Film Center is affiliated with the Art Museum and shows an eclectic mix of films.

Museum of the Oregon Territory
This small museum houses collections of historic memorabilia and old photos from this area. There's the obligatory covered wagon, as well as a display of Native American petroglyphs. Your admission ticket to this museum will also get you into the Stevens Crawford House, 603 Sixth St., a foursquare-style home that is furnished with late-19th-century antiques and looks as if the family just stepped out.

Make your reservations for discount hotel rooms in the Portland area, including:

Greenwood Inn
The Greenwood Inn is a resortlike, low-rise hotel with beautifully landscaped grounds that reflect the garden style of the Pacific Northwest. This is Beaverton's best hotel and is located only 15 to 20 minutes from downtown Portland. A good restaurant and an atmospheric lounge make this an all-around good choice. If you're in the area to do business in the "Silicon Forest," the Greenwood is a good location. Guest rooms are large and comfortable and most are designed with business travelers in mind, and in the bathrooms, you'll find plenty of counter space for toiletries. Executive rooms, which cost a little extra, are exceptional, with original artwork on the walls, three phones, and a well-lighted desk/work area.

Mallory Hotel
The Mallory, which is right on the west-side Max line and thus convenient for exploring the city by light rail, has long been a favorite of Portland visitors who want the convenience of staying downtown but aren't on a bottomless expense account. This is an older hotel, and the lobby, with its ornate gilt plasterwork trim and crystal chandeliers, has a certain classic (and faded) grandeur. Time seems to have stood still here (there's a lounge straight out of the 1950s).The standard rooms are not as luxurious as the lobby might suggest and are smaller than comparable rooms at the Imperial or Days Inn, but are comfortable and clean. With rates this low, you might even want to go for one of the king-size suites, which are as big as they come, with walk-in closets, refrigerators, and sofa beds. Free local calls are a nice perk.The dining room at the Mallory continues the grand design of the lobby. Heavy drapes hang from the windows, and faux-marble pillars lend just the right air of imperial grandeur.

McMenamins Edgefield
B&Bs don't usually have more than 100 rooms, but this is no ordinary inn. Located 30 minutes east of downtown Portland and ideally situated for exploring the Columbia Gorge and Mount Hood, this flagship of the McMenamin microbrewery empire is the former Multnomah County poor farm. Today the property includes not only tastefully decorated guest rooms with antique furnishings, but a brewery, a pub, a beer garden, a restaurant, a movie theater, a winery, a wine-tasting room, a distillery, a golf course, a cigar bar in an old shed, and extensive gardens. With so much in one spot, this makes a great base for exploring the area. The beautiful grounds give this inn the feel of a remote retreat, though you're still within a short drive of everything Portland has to offer.
