Portland (/ˈpɔːrtlənd/, PORT-lənd) is a port city in the Pacific Northwest and the largest city in the U.S. state of Oregon. Situated at the confluence of the Willamette and Columbia rivers, Portland is the county seat of Multnomah County, the most populous county in Oregon. As of 2020, Portland had a population of 652,503, making it the 26th-most populated city in the United States, the sixth-most populous on the West Coast, and the second-most populous in the Pacific Northwest, after Seattle. Approximately 2.5 million people live in the Portland metropolitan statistical area (MSA), making it the 25th most populous in the United States. About half of Oregon's population resides within the Portland metropolitan area.

Named after Portland, Maine, the Oregon settlement began to be populated in the 1840s, near the end of the Oregon Trail. Its water access provided convenient transportation of goods, and the timber industry was a major force in the city's early economy. At the turn of the 20th century, the city had a reputation as one of the most dangerous port cities in the world, a hub for organized crime and racketeering. After the city's economy experienced an industrial boom during World War II, its hard-edged reputation began to dissipate. Beginning in the 1960s, Portland became noted for its growing liberal and progressive political values, earning it a reputation as a bastion of counter-culture.

Jingjiang City, referred to as "Jing" for short, is located in eastern China, the north bank of the lower reaches of the Yangtze River in Jiangsu Province, near the Jingjiang River, facing the river in the east, west and south, facing Jiangyin and Zhangjiagang in the south and southeast, adjacent to Rugao in the east and Taixing in the northwest. It is a new port industrial city in Jiangsu Province, with 54 kilometers of high-quality Yangtze River shoreline and convenient land and water transportation. The geographical location of Jingjiang is "strangling the gate of the river and sea and defending the whole Wu", so it is called "Jingjiang". "Jing" means stability and peace, and "Jiang" is because it is close to the Yangtze River, which means that Jingjiang is a city by the river. Jingjiang has been listed as an open area by the State Council and joined the Southern Jiangsu Torch Belt, which has become an important "bridgehead" for the Shanghai Pudong Development Zone and the Southern Jiangsu Torch Belt to radiate and extend to northern Jiangsu. Jingjiang is a first-class and powerful city north of the Yangtze River in Jiangsu Province, leading the counties and cities in northern Jiangsu. Jing
