The Travel Guide’s evocative photographs and modern digital features draw visitors into the natural, manmade and historic assets that enrich the state’s travel experience. The Travel Guide includes more than 830 attractions, nearly 4,000 accommodations and travel resources in all 100 counties. Articles venture beyond the practical aspects of travel to explore the dimensions that distinguish a trip to North Carolina – the marriage of sustainable agriculture and fine dining, traditional craft and food items to take home, the way attractions use technology to advance their stories, and how vacations in special places strengthen family ties. And in observance of the Civil War Sesquicentennial, travelers learn about sites that reflect the journey of African-Americans from slavery to freedom.
