There is something to be said for small towns. They give you that down home charm that big cities tend to lack. There is truly nothing better! To enjoy small town life on your next trip, why not travel Wake Forest? It is located in Wake County and has a population of 30, 000. Once the home of Wake Forest University, this 100-year-old town now boasts The Wake Forest Historical Museum, NC Speciality Shops, and The Factory. Add in a stop at the Olde English Tea Room and you’ll have a perfectly memorable trip!

With a gorgeous skyline along with dozens of museums and theatres, you can soak up all the culture this city has to offer. During your stay, be sure to check out the NASCAR Hall of Fame. There you can learn more about the sport, its history, and even check out a few racing cars. Here’s a travel tip: If you live in Europe…don’t forget  to apply for your visum usa-ESTA (Electronic System for Travel Authorization) online before you go!

Asheboro, North Carolina

If you love animals, then Asheboro, North Carolina is the place to be!
