About an hour south of Portland, Silverton is a great destination for those who appreciate gardens and architecture. The town's main attraction is The Oregon Garden, a botanical garden spanning over 80 acres. It features a variety of specialty gardens, including a Pet-Friendly Garden and a Children’s Garden, making it a great stop for the whole family. If you're planning to stay for a few days, you can book a room at the Oregon Garden Resort, which is located right on the property.
