31 days in Raleigh Itinerary

For those not from the South, Raleigh might be one of the region's better-kept travel secrets.

Do some cultural sightseeing at North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences and Duke University Chapel. Visit Guilford Courthouse National Military Park and Bennett Place Historic Site for their historical value. Explore Raleigh's surroundings by going to North Carolina Zoo (in Asheboro), Pittsboro (Beggars and Choosers, Carolina Tiger Rescue, &more) and Durham (The Crossings Golf Course, Durham Bulls Athletic Park, &more). There's much more to do: admire the masterpieces at North Carolina Museum of Art, walk around Pullen Park, look for all kinds of wild species at Conservators Center, and see where the action happens at PNC Arena.
