Cheap Flights To Charlotte, NC
Visit Charlotte
Charlotte, the largest city in North Carolina, was named for the consort of England's King George III; but during the Revolutionary War, Charlotte citizens harassed the British so unmercifully that they were referred to as "a hornet's nest".
Today, Charlotte tops many of the "best places to live" lists, and is a popular tourist destination thanks to its many fine attractions, inviting climate and friendly people.
Whether you're a NASCAR or Panthers fan, a museum addict, a student of colonial history or a whitewater rafter, Charlotte has something just for you.

It would take more space than we have here to list all of Charlotte's fun things to do and see, so consider this a "highlights" list, and find more information at the links below.
NASCAR Hall of Fame - See interactive exhibits of your favorite race car drivers, and see historic cars. Try the racing simulator ride, but hang on. The Hall offers two restaurants and a gift shop.
U.S. National Whitewater Center - Tours and classes in whitewater rafting, plus biking, kayaking or climb a 57-foot tall rock wall. Ready for more? Try the 40-foot free fall known as "Mega Jump". If you still have an appetite after that, head to the River's Edge Bar & Grill on the premises.
Discovery Place - Walk through a festival of live butterflies, see an IMAX film or a 3D movie experience, and learn more about the world we live in. For all ages, but there are also special programs just for kids.
