What's the local attraction in your town?
 
A couple of Lincoln sites including:

He spoke from the balcony that is visible just to the left of the flagpole.


And the National Cemetery with graves that include soldiers from the War Between the States.

1. Japanese Gardens
2. Oregon Zoo
3. OMSI (Oregon Museum of Science and Industry)
4. Pittock Mansion
5. Waterfront Park
6. Oaks Park
7. Portland Art Museum
8. PIR (Portland International Raceway)
9. Providence Park (Soccer/Timbers)
10. Crystal Ballroom (lots of shows/concerts)
11. Rose Quarter/Moda Center (Blazers/basketball/concerts/etc)
12. Pioneer Square
13. Portland Saturday Market
14. Washington Park

I guess you could call these attractions, but they're really not if you don't see them as more than what they are:

14. Voodoo Donuts (became more popular when covered by the Travel Channel and as more people move into the Portland-metro area)
15. Powell's books (just a book store that sits on 1.6 acres of land in the city. It sells new and used books)
 
Dunno, there's a museum, some old buildings, and a yearly festival, but other than that it's not that interesting.

Very impressive and interesting list of attractions in your area. Thanks for sharing!

There are a lot more, like parks and other outdoor stuff, but that's just a few.
 
I suppose the old & new Cathedrals and the transport museum. I live in Coventry, UK btw.

Although trip advisor recommends a few more.
 
The V festival in July.
The high house
The Castle, the events they hold such as Shakespeare plays, Vintage car events.


This in Stafford UK
 
Nothing, really.

The first female barrister in the UK was born here though. She was the first to pass the bar after the sex disqualification removal act of 1919 was signed into law. Until that point women couldn't do many things as a career, including law.
