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.

The landing area is one of the four urban areas of Huangshi City, which is located in the hinterland of Huangshi city center, bordered by Huangshi Port and Xisai Mountain in the east, Tieshan in the west, Daye in the south and Ezhou in the north. Now it has jurisdiction over three subdistrict offices of new Xialu, Old Xialu and Dongfangshan, with a total area of 37 square kilometers and a population of 110000 in 2010. It is the transportation hub of Huangshi City, an important metallurgical machinery and building materials industry base and an industry, trade and tourism city with good development prospects. There are large state-owned enterprises in the area, such as Daye Nonferrous Metals Company, Chinalco Copper Strip Company, Huangshi Textile Machinery Factory, Dongfang Pipe Company of Xinye Iron and Steel Group, Hubei Coalfield 182 Geology and other large state-owned enterprises, which are the most obvious transportation and resource advantages in Huangshi City.
