Pullen Park
As the first public park in North Carolina, Pullen Park was first established in 1887. A fun fact is that Pullen Park is the 5th oldest amusement park in the United States and it features a traditional carousel with hand-carved animals for the kids to ride. Spread out over its 66.4 acres visitors will find green space, walking paths, playgrounds, Aquatic Center, Pullen Arts Center, and the Theatre in the Park as well. This is definitely one of the best Raleigh, NC, local points.

Fun fact: the state of North Carolina is home to more than 300 breweries and brewpubs.

Morgan Street Food Hall & Transfer Co. Food Hall
Don’t worry, we didn’t forget about all you foodies. Aside from all the local, mouth-watering restaurants, Raleigh has two fantastic food halls that draw crowds from all over.
