Greensboro Travel Tips

  • One of North Carolina's best-kept secrets is its zoo, the biggest walkthrough, natural-habitat zoo in the country. The North Carolina Zoo and its 1,100 animals are about 25 miles south of Greensboro in Asheboro.
  • Cool off the kids at Wet 'n Wild Emerald Pointe, the Carolinas' largest water park with more than 36 rides, slides, and attractions. It's open from May through September.
  • Remember key moments in local African-American history—including the famed 1960 lunch counter sit-in at a downtown Greensboro Woolworth—along the Walkway of History.
  • Wander through Old Greensborough and the downtown Historic District, featuring more than 50 restaurants and clubs and an array of art galleries, antique shops, specialty gift stores, and fashion retailers.
