This really brings back a lot of memories. It also proves that the whole city isn't a burned out shithole, like the media would have you believe. Sure, Portland has some rough hoods, what big city doesn't? I really miss the bridges, the rivers, the beach, the gorge and the mountains. Portland pretty much has it all.
I’m looking at videos like this to analyze a potential trip in 2024, I barely got my license and I would love to visit Portland so I appreciate this video
love the pacific northwest and thoroughly enjoyed this video, watched the entire video from beginning to end. would love to see a Driving tour video of downtown seattle.👍💯
Beautiful city! So green! I'm from Europe and was just wondering why are the traffic lights on the opposite side of the intersection? I have never seen this in Europe. Here they are always on the near side
Interesting. Not sure the reason for the traffic lights. Maybe just simply different infrastructure. I’m excited to drive in Europe next summer and see these near signals you speak of.
@@ksvagabond Thanks for your answer. 🙂The only issue you might have with near side placements is that if you are the first car at a light and if you have stoped too close to the light it's a bit hard to see it. That's why the stop line is usually placed further back. Also at interesections with unprotected left turns the drawback is that when you wait at the middle for oncoming traffic you can't see when the light changes to amber since it's behind you. Personally I find the US setup better
@@ksvagabond i visited my friend's house there, neighbourhood is just beautiful, you can see the city from Pittock mansion point view on mountain, I also remember visiting a zoo
Such a beautiful city in such a beautiful area by the cascades, I love it here, lovely people, beautiful trees, and gardens, and so much to do any day of the week, honestly not that many other places I would rather be
Media describes Portland as a homeless and drug infested, dystopian ghost town... But WOW! This changed my perspective, what an absolutely gorgeous city. I'm certain it is troubled and riddled with issues. But at its core, the beauty is there! Truth prevails!
@khem3275 I totally agree. Any major city in America or the world is described negatively these days. It's not the truth (mostly). Especially Portland.
Some turns are permitted on red. American drive on the right side of the road too. That could be the reason for your question. Can you not do this in the UK @mantawray9672
Moved away 7 years ago. A lot of new construction. Summertime in Portland is perfect. I just home that the government pulls their heads out their asses and clean it up.
