Oregon Vietnam Veterans Memorial, Vietnam War memorial in Washington Park, Portland, United States.
The black granite memorial features a curved wall with names of Oregon residents who died or went missing during the Vietnam War.
The memorial, dedicated in 1987, emerged from Oregon veterans visiting the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington DC during 1982.
The memorial includes a chronological display of local events alongside Vietnam War milestones, connecting Oregon to the broader conflict.
The memorial opens daily from 5:00 AM to 10:00 PM, with limited parking available and a free seasonal shuttle service for visitors.
A garden with pear trees and water elements creates distinct areas for contemplation, including the Garden of Solace within the 3.25-acre grounds.
