Quirky Tourist Attractions in or near North Carolina

Town landmark, once called the "Bureau of Information." 38 feet tall, with two giant socks hanging from one of its drawers.
~17 miles from Winston-Salem.

Thomasville calls itself "Chair City" and "Chair Capital of the South," so it makes sense that it erected a giant chair in its downtown.
~18 miles from Winston-Salem.

Wally's, a 1937 gas station, is now a gift shop and photo op. Next door, the Mayberry Courthouse is a recreation of Sheriff Andy's official digs. Put your feet up on the desk, just like a TV star!

Giant mirror ball chicken, an arty sculpture of a humanoid figure with wings and flared legs like bell-bottomed pants. Stands outside an art museum.
