Powell’s Books

Powell’s City of Books is a massive bookstore in the Pearl District of downtown Portland that occupies an entire block. The store is categorized into color-coded sections that include a blue room, green room, gold room, and rose room, among others, such as a coffee room (both the shade of brown and an actual coffee shop). Of the tourist attractions in Portland, this is one that I highly recommend. Still, there are plenty of great bookstores to explore in Portland if this one doesn’t suit your tastes.
