Travel Oregon

Explore Quirky Oregon

In Portland, Voodoo Doughnut shop uses fruit loops and bacon as ingredients. Nearby, an entire art gallery called Velveteria is dedicated to velvet paintings. At the coast, you can see life-size dinosaurs in a forest setting at Prehistoric Gardens. Or head to the Oregon Vortex in Gold Hill, where balls roll uphill and brooms stand on end. Or sign up for a murder mystery dinner on the Crooked River Railroad of Central Oregon. These are just some of Oregon’s quirky attractions.
