What about "culture" in Portland, like museums? Probably not a biggie for most people.
Well, if you're a history nerd, the Lewis & Clark Expedition is a fascinating story with tangible artifacts of their journey all over Oregon but generally speaking, I outsource my "culture" and relish the visits to museums in Chicago or San Francisco or even Detroit which houses one of the great museums of our country in the Henry Ford. Hell, even Dallas and especially Fort Worth are better options for museum fans.
But it's not lacking here, as pointed out by others. If you're a fan of gardens in general, you can do far worse than Portland. It's not the Rose City by accident. I think my wife loves her roses more than me and I'm only mildly kidding.
