If you only have time to visit one section of Union Terminal, make it Duke Energy Children’s Museum for some educational fun designed specifically for children ages one to twelve. With eight unique exhibits and attractions, and a large indoor play area where children can safely bounce off the walls to their hearts’ content, this museum is a children’s wonderland.

See the Harriet Beecher Stowe House, where the author famous for penning Uncle Tom’s Cabin was born and raised. This preserved family home has been maintained and restored. Travel back in time, as you enter through the doors, to an era on the brink of Civil War, and get a glimpse into the lives of a family filled with human rights activists.

Learn how to cast a reel at Folz Fishing Lakes. These catch and release lakes are stuffed with all kinds of enormous fish: carps, bluecats, shovelheads, bass, bluegill and more. Rent a fishing pole and some live bait to take out onto the two beautifully maintained, tree-lined lakes for a great way to unwind.
