If, on the other hand, you're more interested in learning about the beautiful city of Winston Salem, North Carolina, nestled between the Blue Ridge mountains and the nearby cities of Charlotte and Raleigh, you've come to the right place.

 

We Love Winston!

You'll learn the Winston is a green city, it is on the top 10 list of places with low cost of living and high job growth - optimal for these trying economic times. Winston-Salem was North Carolina's primary city in its heyday, with booming textile industries and tobacco fields stretching as far as the eye could see.

 

However, in recent times, the Arts (think River Run film Festival and the famous NC School of the Arts) as well as the biotech and healthcare industries, have taken center stage. Nevertheless, you won't want to miss out on a visit to Old Salem, where your taken back in history

And We Love North Carolina too!
