Page orientation is a property of page styles - so if all your pages 
have the same page style they will all have the same orientation.  If 
you change it, the change will apply to all pages.

Perhaps all your pages have the Default (portrait) page style.  There 
is a built-in Landscape page style which has the other orientation 
and may suit your purpose.
o Put the cursor at the end of the last portrait page.
o Go to Insert | Manual Break... .
o Under Type, select "Page break".
o Under Style, select Landscape from the drop-down list.
o Now put the cursor at the end of the single landscape page.
o Go to Insert | Manual Break... .
o Under Type, select "Page break".
o Under Style, select Default from the drop-down list.

Each page break is associated with a change in page style: from 
Default to Landscape and back again.  If these built-in page styles 
do not suffice, you can modify them or even create your own, of course.

I trust this helps.
