Unexpected and unique
scenery is located in the
southwestern region. Visit
Fort Vancouver Historical
Site in Vancouver, Washington where history is there for
you to discover. The spectacularly carved out course of
the Columbia River offers endless recreational activities in the Columbia Gorge Region.
One of the most fertile agricultural areas in the nation and state is found in the southeast-
ern region of Washington. The world famous Walla Walla sweet onions, hillsides of rolling
wheat fields, and hops create a diverse landscape when traveling through small towns
such as Dayton. With hundreds of wineries, you can taste world class wines and experi-
ence a small town friendliness, as well as 300 days of sunshine.
