About Portland, Oregon, USA

Study in Portland

If there's one thing to keep in mind when talking about Portland, it's without a doubt its status as the city with the most parks and green zones in the country. Its fantastic natural conditions, near mountains, forests, rivers, ocean, desert and volcanoes, make this city an excellent place to forget about the stress of the big cities, which makes it a wonderful place to live.

The city is situated where the Columbia and Willamette rivers converge, which quickly made Portland one of the USA's most important port cities. Its origins go back to 1825, when the Hudson Bay company established its headquarters on the northern shore of the Columbia River. From there the city continued to grow until becoming the unique city that it is today.
