History of Oregon presented by Portland Oregon limo service

 

PortlandOregon limo service wants to teach the people. The state of Oregon (Oregon, area 255 thousand sq. Km) is located on the Pacific coast of the United States, between 42 degrees north latitude and the Columbia River. Along the coast from north to south stretches the Coastal Range (up to 1,248 m), in the southwest - the Klamath Mountains, in the east - the Cascade Mountains, Blue Mountain, Wall ova (Wallow) and the southern spurs of the Columbia Plateau, and between them - a vast low-lying valley the Willamette River. The scenic beauty of the Beaver State with its many historic towns, sleepy fishing villages, ski resorts and wineries is highlighted by 670 kilometers of ocean coast, picturesque mountains and coastal cliffs, hundreds of lakes and rivers with their gorges, mountain deserts and forests ( almost half of the state's territory is covered with dense forest).

 


On the most northwestern border of the state, at the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia rivers, lies its largest city and one of the fastest growing cities in the United States - Portland. The "City of Roses" is one of the most picturesque settlements in the country, whose face is defined by the vast forests and ancient volcanoes of the surrounding mountains, the vibrant historic city center with its characteristic architecture and abundance of sun. The Willamette River divides the city into two parts - the East Side and the West Side.

 

40 km east of the city, the picturesque Columbia River Gorge begins with its canyon about 900 meters deep, 70 waterfalls (among which the second largest in the country is Multnomah, 189 m high), numerous viaducts and the Columbia River Museum in Astoria. 90 km east of Portland rises the majestic Mount Hood Peak (3429 m - the highest point in Oregon), widely known for the longest ski season in the country (345 days a year on these slopes).

 

Salem , the capital of Oregon and the state's third-largest city, is known for its excellent museums, including Mission Mill, Old Aurora Colony, Bush House and Oregon Garden, as well as for its picturesque parks and gardens. Newport boasts of its gardens (looks like it is the hallmark of the whole of Oregon), the Art Museum, the Museum of Advertising, the Museum of Science and Industry, the Pit tock Mansion, the zoo, the Marine Center aquarium, the Rouge El Bravery brewery and the picturesque PGE Park...

 

In Bend, the Museum of Mountain Deserts deserves attention, Eugene is known for the Halt Performing Arts Center, and Baker City for the Interpretive Center National Historical Trail.

 

The Willamette Pass and Hoodoo Ski-Eire can be found a few dozen different ski resorts in the vast and desolate area Steen’s in the south-east - a lot of protected areas, and along the coast - an extensive National Park Oregon Dunes . Nearby are the deepest lake in the country and the seventh in the world - Crater (depth 592 m), around which the national park of the same name is located. And on the very border with Idaho, southeast of Baker City, there is the deepest gorge in North America - Hell Canyon (depth up to 1650 m), carved into the rock mass by the Snake River.
