Things to see in Charlotte

The Mint Museum

Unlike the Mint Museum Randolph which occupies the original United States Mint to the east of the city centre, the Mint Museum Uptown is centrally located in the heart of the cultural area of Charlotte and offers visitors fantastic exhibits of American and European art collections as well as a world-renowned craft and design exhibition.

Make an afternoon of culture with The Harvey B. Grant Center for African-American Arts, and the Bechtler Museum of Modern Art bot within a one block radius.

Insider’s Tip: Although culturally important, families may be more suited to the attractions at the north end of Uptown, including Discovery Place and ImaginOn which are both interactive areas for children to explore.

NASCAR Hall of Fame

Charlotte is a sports mad city, and they don’t come bigger than NASCAR! The motorsport famous throughout the south of The USA, and increasingly across the world, has its Hall of Fame located in the Uptown area of the city.

More than just a roll call of the who’s who of the sport, the interactive museum traces the history of the sport, has a High-Octane Theatre, and cars from throughout the ages for visitors to get an up-close-and-personal look at. Even non-motoring enthusiasts will find something of interest in this fast and exhilarating sport.

Things to Do in Charlotte

See a game!

As previously mentioned, Charlotte is a city gone mad for its sporting teams. Not only on wheels, with the NASCAR Charlotte Motor Speedway in the nearby city of Concord, but also having 3 major sporting venues all in the heart of the city.

The Bank of America Stadium is a 74,000 seat facility and home to the NFL’s Carolina Panthers, located across the road from BB&T Ballpark, the home of the Minor League Baseball team the Charlotte Knights.

Perhaps the most famous of the sporting teams in the city are the Charlotte Hornets, an NBA team that plays at the Spectrum Center. Owned by the infamous Michael Jordan, a North Carolina native, the team has undergone a number of name changes before settling on the original Hornets moniker.

Insider’s Tip: Tours are available of the Bank of America Stadium giving visitors a fascinating insight into the NFL team and the history of the sport in Charlotte.

Carowinds

Holidays to Charlotte with the family can include an edge of fun and excitement by visiting Carowinds, the 398 acre theme park located on the border of North and South Carolina just a short drive from the city centre.

Incorporating rollercoasters, fair rides, and other attractions, it is the perfect place for families to escape the city for a day and make the most of their holiday. With a water park attached containing slides, water playgrounds, and a wave pool, it’s easy to fill a day with smiles and laughter!

The Blue Ridge Parkway

One thing not to miss on a self-drive itinerary from Charlotte is the famous Blue Ridge Parkway. Classed as one of the best drives in the country, if not the world, the road stretches 470 miles along the eastern side of the Nantahala, Pisgah, and Cherokee National Forests in North Carolina before continuing into Virginia.

A spectacular mountain drive, particularly in Autumn, the natural scenery complete with waterfalls is spellbinding!

Insider’s Tip: For a truly spectacular night, stay at the Inn on Biltmore Estate, a home of the Vanderbilt’s since 1895 and America’s largest home still to this day!
