Quirky Tourist Attractions in or near North Carolina

While in North Carolina, you might enjoy a visit to:

Mount Airy, North Carolina: Andy Griffith Museum, Chang and Eng

Andy Griffith is king in Mt. Airy, so he gets a Museum, but other local celebrities get recognition here as well.

New Bern, North Carolina: Stuffed Head of Firehorse Fred

Fire Horse Fred pulled the New Bern fire hose wagon from 1908 to 1925. You can see his head mounted in a glass case at the Fireman's Museum.

Thomasville, North Carolina: World's Largest Duncan Phyfe Chair

Thomasville calls itself "Chair City" and "Chair Capital of the South," so it only makes sense that it would erect a giant chair in its downtown.

Fort Bragg, North Carolina: Barney the Bear

Barney, on display at the JFK Special Warfare Museum, survived Vietnam -- but couldn't endure North Carolina.

Winston-Salem, North Carolina: The Big Coffee Pot

Not as big as some others, but the oldest big pot in America.

Blowing Rock, North Carolina: Mystery Hill

Another spot where gravity misbehaves.

Bear Grass, North Carolina: Henry Cowan Sculptures

Curious painted statues of concrete soldiers.

Rockingham, North Carolina: World's Largest Strawberry

Self-proclaimed fruit wonder of the highway.
