Mill Ends Park

A small, cute park right in the middle of the pavement and was more excited to know that this park was listed in the Guinness book of world records. If you happen to visit the waterfront, you can get a glimpse of this tiny little tree park, few steps away from the place

I didn’t know about this park until I saw people taking pictures in the middle of the street, and I thought, what’s going on here? It might seem a little silly, but if you’re in Portland, it’s worth stopping by for a few photos. Afterward, take a walk in the larger park just across the street, it’s really nice. I do want to mention that there are quite a few homeless people around the downtown area, which is a bit sad.

I watched Iggy Pop’s concert for free from Mill Ends Park, had excellent view despite cars passing by. Several people around but very safe, EMS was on site in case there are crazy drivers. Very fun night nonetheless.

Going to the world’s smallest park was such a fun experience! It was very accessible to go here by walk from a nearby restaurant. It is super small and somehow that makes it very cute! There are restrooms nearby on the other side of the road. This park is also located kind of in the middle of a large road, so you have to cross a road to get here. This place is of course open at all times.

The famous "world’s smallest park" was cute but… un-climatic. I don’t know what my expectations were… it’s suppose to be small. Maybe I wanted it to be smaller? I don’t know. But it’s a cute little point of pride for Portland and an easy stop on a jogging route. Be careful of the oncoming bike-lane traffic!

Quirky and touristy but it puts a smile on your face. It's worth checking out if nearby already but don't go out of your way for it.

It's a nice treasure hunt within the city if you know about this place. If you love quirky things, this is the place for you. You can tell it's well maintained and well loved by the locals. Will definitely be back for another photo.
