The North Carolina State Fair attracts an impressive 800,000 people every year, making it the largest annual event in North Carolina. Over the course of the 11-day festival, arts, agriculture, cultural exhibits and an amusement fairway all offer something fun to do and see every minute that you are there. Also, the event always features performances by nationally recognized talent.
The Spring Hill House is a registered historical building and is currently the home of the North Carolina Japan Center. The institution is also part of the NC State University's Centennial Campus. Many layers of historical relevance are here for learning, as this museum was once the main house of a plantation. The building has undergone numerous structural changes, not the least of which was a full-scaled renovation in 2000 and 2001. The stories that are preserved and retold here all make up the long, far-reaching chain of events that link it all back to Raleigh's origins and development.
Sure, Raleigh's history is fascinating, but all those facts and stories might make you a little hungry. When your hunger for history turns into your hunger for a great meal, take the Taste of Carolina Gourmet Food Tours and taste the best items from the menus of standout restaurants and shops.
