The largest city in Maine, Portland is the business, retail and financial capital of the state. It is also home to the U.S. Customs House and the Children’s Museum of Maine. Also visit the Maine Narrow Gauge Railroad Co. and Museums, the Portland Museum of Art, and the Wadsworth Longfellow House.
Enjoy the mix of new and modern architecture as you walk around the cobblestone streets of the restored "Old Port" section or breathe in the salty air as you walk along the city's working waterfront. You may even walk down the boardwalk to hop a ferry to Peaks Island, about three miles off Portland's coast.
