Portland's Forest Park has miles and miles of hiking trails. After wearing ourselves out with a 12-mile hike on Saturday, Sunday was for a little relaxation. The Japanese Garden at the edge of the park was beautiful and very authentic. It includes five formal gardening styles: a pond garden (see above), a natural setting garden, a sand and stone garden, a flat garden and traditional tea garden. Just down the hill, the International Rose Test Garden bursts forth row after row of fragrant flowers. Ever since its founding in 1917, the garden has received the best roses from around the world.
