a little piece of China in our own backyard


I suppose most cities have some sort of China Town and the Northwest city of Portland is no exception.  Within our China Town is the Classical Chinese Gardens.  One night a year (or if you pay a special fee) you can hang out till dusk, just after sunset to capture some great images of interesting Chinese architecture and gardens.  The tea house also has great hot drinks and food.  We pretty much got chased out out as I wanted to stay as long into the magic period (when dusk and interior lighting are mostly balanced and the same value) as possible.  Great place in the middle of the city yet calm and inviting..........
