Greensboro was built around a central courthouse square. To start your exploration of this historic North Carolina city, go to the Guilford Courthouse National Military Park. Learn more about the Greensboro’s history and heritage at the beautiful Greensboro Historical Museum. The Weatherspoon Art Museum has more than 60,000 pieces of art, focusing mostly on American artists. The Miriam P. Brenner Children's Museum is a very different kind of museum. Children can touch, feel, smell and explore everything that is displayed. Keep kids happy by visiting the Greensboro Science Center, which has not only a museum but a zoo and an aquarium.

Take in some fresh air at the Tanger Family Bicentennial Garden, where nature’s art competes with magnificent bronze sculptures. The Greensboro Arboretum, with its profusion of blooms and more formal Gateway Gardens, is also a must see.
