Located underneath the beautiful St. Johns Bridge, Cathedral Park is the best place to crash a wedding or a kids birthday party. You can also head down to the small riverside dock and watch the boats go by, preferably with some Burgerville from two blocks away.

Technically in downtown rather than in North Portland, but if you are up for some spooky Portland history, take a tour through the underground Shanghai tunnels. Get a group of friends together and learn about the darker side of Portland’s history, discount tickets are offered for students and the tours around Halloween are not to be missed.
