Vancouver, WA
About
Founded in 1824 as Fort Vancouver by the Hudson’s Bay Company, Vancouver is Washington State’s oldest city. It’s in the state's southwest region, just north of the Oregon state line, and connected to the Portland Metropolitan Area by two bridges crossing the Columbia River. Outdoorsy locals and visitors appreciate Vancouver’s many parks, including Esther Short Park. You also have access to the state's oldest town square, housing a community theater within an 1867 home, where a free movie and concert series takes place in July and August. At Old Apple Tree Park, visitors marvel at what's believed to be the oldest apple tree in the Pacific Northwest, planted in 1826. It's easy to stay active while enjoying the outdoors. The five-mile paved Waterfront Renaissance Trail runs from downtown east along the Columbia River to Wintler Community Park, which includes a beach area.
