For a number of years the Portland Classical Chinese Garden has supported the Portland Rose Festival's Grand Floral Parade. The Portland Classical Chinese Garden began as a dream in the early 1980's. It became more focused when Portland and Suzhou, China, became sister cities in 1988 and the idea of a building a Suzhou-style garden in Portland became a goal. The garden opened September 14th, 2000. The Garden is located between NW 2nd and 3rd and NW Flanders and Glisan in Old Town/Chinatown. The Garden can be reached from I-405 by taking the Everett Street Exit and turning East.
