WELCOME TO
A unique mix of rich history, pioneering achievements, and diverse culture – that’s what makes Durham the kind of place that is always engaging. The national accolades it’s earned as a place to live, work, and play only prove what anyone who’s been here has already experienced – and experience is the key. Durham is a place where you can get involved and do things, rather than simply observe. There are more possibilities than this guide could ever cover, so consider this a short introduction to a few of the things that keep Durham fresh. For comprehensive information about things to see and do, places to eat, places to stay, and more, check out www.durham-nc.com.

Research & Healthcare Each year, thousands come to Durham’s six major hospitals and medical centers. They come to the world-renowned Research Triangle Park and its global leaders in computer science, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, and more. Then there are the visitors to the multinational research firms, university spin-offs, and Durham’s startup incubators like American Underground. With all that brainpower mixed in with the other riches Durham has to offer, it’s no wonder that so many look to the Bull City when they’re looking for innovative, cutting-edge thinking – it’s inscribed in Durham’s DNA.

Innovation: it’s been happening here for 300 years, but it’s not just history. Durham began as an 18th-century Native American trading and agrarian center before it transformed into a land of Scotch-Irish grist mills and grain and cotton plantations. Then the tobacco and textile boom after the Civil War happened, and later the economic booms of Black Wall Street and Research Triangle Park made their marks – each one reinventing Durham.
Walk through those changes at the Museum of Durham History’s History Hub or the three state historic sites and see how a storied past becomes a forward-thinking future. Marvel, too, at Durham’s adaptive reuse architecture in the nearly four million sq. ft. of repurposed tobacco and textile warehouses that today shelter some of the Bull City’s renowned arts and food scenes.
