Charlotte Museum of History
Recently expanded to cover 36,000 square feet, the Charlotte Museum of History now emphasizes three themes: freedom, the influence of our environment, and the changing face of Charlotte. The museum is near the Hezekiah Alexander house, home to a Carolinian who signed the Declaration of Independence and co-framed the first North Carolina State Constitution and Bill of Rights. Built in 1774, it's the oldest original structure in Charlotte and Mecklenburg County. On the homesite tour, guides in authentic colonial dress will show you around. After checking out the house, visitors can enjoy the museum's collection of art and objects from around the world, dating from pre-colonial times to the 20th century."

Paramount's Carowinds Water and Theme Park
Paramount's Carowinds Water and Theme Park commands over 100 acres and includes more than 50 roller coasters and thrill rides. The WaterWorks boasts water slides, a river ride, and a wave pool. The Drop Zone hoists you and your loved ones up100 feet and gives you a serious scare as it (safely) drops you. The Carolina Cyclone coaster includes four consecutive 360-degree loops and a 450-degree uphill helix. Top Gun: The Jet Coaster is an inverted steel coaster (the only one in the Carolinas) with floorless cars suspended below the track; its six stomach-churning inversions challenge even veteran riders. For a break from the thrill seeking, visitors might want to head over to the Family Fun area that features kid-paced attractions and rides, with several life-size Hanna-Barbera and Nickelodeon cartoon characters roaming the streets.
