The state's long and colorful history comes alive through innovative exhibits and programs in this state-of-the-art facility. It's all here, beginning with the Roanoke Island colonists to the present, including the contributions to the state by women and African Americans. The state, which was initially reluctant to enter what it called "a rich man's war and a poor man's fight," lost more native sons in battle than any other state in the Confederacy. The folklife gallery showcases the state's cultural and crafts heritage, exhibiting music, pottery, baskets, and textiles.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
