Review of Winston-Salem, North Carolina

City Revitalization
Star Rating - 8/21/2007
The Downtown Winston-Salem has seen a strong revitalization effort in recent years. There are many enticing unique restaurants, pubs, deli's and bed and breakfast dining options in the area. The Downtown area also spotlights many Arts and Crafts shops, galleries and museums along Trade Street and adjoining streets.

Along with the new, the old holds its own with Old Salem. An early Moravian settlement, this site holds Salem Academy, Salem College, Old Salem shops, museums and restaurants along with some old and new housing opportunities.
