Charlotte Profile
Charlotte is the largest city in North Carolina, which also makes it one of the most diverse and entertaining. The city offers professional sports arenas, cultural attractions, historical attractions, exclusive shopping, unique cuisine, recreational opportunities, and of course, southern charm. Millions of visitors flock to Charlotte in droves to witness the rolling thunder of a NASCAR race at the world famous Lowe’s Motor Speedway. Many fans will attest that nothing is as exciting as the roar of the engines, the cheer of the crowd, and watching their favorite drivers propel themselves down the track and past the stands at blistering speeds. Likewise, football, hockey, and basketball fans can catch a Panthers, Checkers, or Bobcats game. Culture and history lovers can pick and choose from the annual Renaissance Festival, the Afro-American Cultural Center, the Blumenthal Performing Arts Center, the Charlotte Museum of History, King’s Mountain National Military Park, the historic Latta or Rosedale Plantations, or the Mint Museums. Shoppers and diners are sure to like Concord Mills, the state’s largest tourist attraction with an interior circumference of over a mile, or the upscale shops at South Park Mall. And when hunger strikes, there’s nothing like North Carolina BBQ. Charlotte has restaurants that serve up all types, from the thick, tomato-based sauce from the western part of the state to the thin, vinegar-based sauce from the eastern part. Outdoor enthusiasts can stroll through one of the city’s botanical gardens or head a few hours west to the great Appalachian Mountains. And don’t worry, children love Charlotte too. There’s the Children’s Theater of Charlotte, Discovery Place, and just a short drive away is Paramount’s Carowinds amusement park.Current Temperature:
