Get ready to be captivated as we set the stage in the vibrant city of Portland, Oregon. Nestled in the heart of the breathtaking Pacific Northwest, Portland beckons with its irresistible blend of culinary delights, rich cultural tapestry, and flourishing arts scene. Known as Bridge City, this metropolis boasts a remarkable collection of 12 majestic bridges adorning the picturesque Willamette River. Each bridge tells a unique design tale, and among them, the iconic Tilikum Crossing, Bridge of the People, stands tall. Unveiled on September 12, 2015, this bridge proudly embraces its name derived from the Chinook Jargon language, symbolizing people, tribe, and family. It serves as a heartfelt tribute to the Indigenous heritage and the enduring history of the Columbia and Willamette River regions.
