'Keep Portland Weird' is just the tip of this delightfully bizarre city's iceberg. Though the City of Roses has experienced its fair share of changes in recent years, the spirit of 'Old Portland' lives in the shadow of gourmet donut shops and farm-to-table restaurants, and that's where the real adventure begins.

Summon spirits at a haunted pizzeria. Let it all hang out at a nude beach on the Columbia River. Get your kicks at the world's only vegan strip club, and visit the world's smallest park (blink and you might miss it).

Throughout these pages, you'll learn about Portland's (at times sordid) past; relive the pioneers' grueling trek to Oregon; discover the strangest museums you've ever heard of, and get the scoop on the restaurants, bars, and coffee shops that don't come with an hour-long wait. Whether you're a frequent visitor or first timer; recent transplant or Portland native, you will discover 111 hidden places that prove Portland is weirder than you could have ever imagined.
