Things To Do

Raleigh is the capital of North Carolina and one of three cities that makes up "The Triangle", a popular area of North Carolina that is a comprised of the major cities of Raleigh, Durham, and Chapel Hill. Each city has its own collection of wonderful restaurants, bars, parks, and attractions. Major highways connect the three areas making it easy to move between the three locations within 15-35 minutes. You could easily spend an entire day in just one of The Triangle's three cities.
