Old Town Chinatown is definitely seedy, but if you can get past that, you'll get a glimpse of how Portland looked in the early 1900's. Saturday Market is also in this part of town and you can find all kinds of treasures there.

Old town Chinatown is a very cool part of Portland that everybody should check out at least once. The Chinese gardens are amazing.

Lots of great fun places to drink, including gay bars, a karaoke bar, and great Chinese food, all within a couple of blocks of each other!

Old Town/Chinatown is a mix: commercial office space, popular bars, nightclubs, and restaurants. Most folks know Oldtown and Chinatown for three reasons: the Portland Saturday Market and the Classical Chinese Garden, as well as world-famous Portland Voodoo Doughnut. Oldtown Portland is also home to some beautiful old classical cast-iron buildings. The “Portland Oregon” sign is also in Oldtown. The neighborhood is rich with history and is a fantastic location in north Downtown Portland near the riverfront. Old Town is popular with tourists and those seeking downtown Portland nightlife. When it comes to nightlife, there are plenty of options around here. From Ground Kontrol, an arcade/bar, to Darcelle XV, a drag burlesque show, you can explore plenty of places to drink and have a good time. Best of all, each spot is within walking distance, so feel free to do a pub crawl and see how many you can hit in a single night. If you’re looking for one of the most unique tours of the city, check out the Shanghai Tunnels Tour. It takes you beneath the bowels of Old Town to show one of the darker elements of Portland’s past. You can take the historical or haunted tour (or both!), depending on your mood. This area also used to be home to Japantown in Portland. Learn more about Old Town Chinatown. Old Town Chinatown is also conveniently situated on the TriMet MAX light rail train line and bus routes for easy commutes in and around the city. Weekends are crazy busy with hundreds (if not more) of people milling about enjoying local artist’s crafts and amazing local food, most with an ethnic flair. Don’t forget that Saturday Market is open on Sundays too! Portland Saturday Market is in Old Town along the waterfront. The Classical Chinese Garden is an authentic Suzhou-style garden and is simply incredible. Photographers– bring your cameras! I am relaxed simply by walking through and enjoying the sights and smells (hmmm…jasmine in the summer!). Do yourself a favor and visit!
