Durham

Review:

Durham is home to Duke University, and has been a cultural destination with many things to do for over 150 years. For a look at Durham’s history, visit the Historic Stagville, one of the South’s largest. At Bennett Place, see the site where negotiations to end the Civil War took place. At the Duke Homestead, learn about the beginnings of the industrial revolution. Museums include the Museum of Durham History, the Hayti Heritage Center, Nasher Museum of Art, NCCU Art Museum and the Duke University Basketball Hall of Fame. Downtown Durham’s Brightleaf District is home to trendy shops and restaurants. The Golden Belt District is the place to go for art galleries, while the Rockwood District is where you’ll find antique shops and award-winning dining.
