西多摩郡剧孟It is well worth a visit. The Portland Lighthouse is not only a landmark in Portland, but also one of the landmarks in Maine and even throughout New England. It was built in 1791 and is located in Cap Elizabeth, overlooking the Gulf of Maine. It was built personally by George Washington. The material is a stone tower, 24 meters high, and 28 kilometers away from the tower. It is an important guarantee for maritime traffic in New England. It is one of the oldest lighthouses in the United States. It was seen as a symbol of the early American founding spirit - holding a beam of light amid chaos, storms, unknowns - and why it was frequently cited in poetry, paintings and photography and even veterans' memorials. The lighthouse faces the dangers of years of snowstorms, sea mists and reefs. For Portland, a city that has repeatedly destroyed and reborn, it is a vigil that stands as a witness to the wind and frost, symbolizing resilience and eternity. Poet Henry Longfellow has visited the lighthouse many times to contemplate the sea. His poem "The Lighthouse" is rumored to be inspired by the lighthouse. The Portland lighthouse is one of the popular photography sites today, where wedding photos are often taken, including advertisements and postcards. There are several places near the lighthouse to enjoy the sea view of the Gulf of Maine, and a trail along the shore reef. Besides, the lighthouse is not surrounded by shops like some attractions, or even a regular coffee shop. Only one simple food truck allowed by the management. Some freshly made food and beverages, the most distinctive is "lobster bread". Because Maine is rich in lobster. The most important thing is that there is no ticket for the lighthouse entry, and the parking fee is very close to the people. 4-6 dollars (forgot about it) / 2 hours.
