Cameron Village

Visitors flock to this area to shop, eat, then shop some more—This open-air district promises a new delight around every corner; the stores are fresh, unique and focused on customer service, and the wide sidewalks tempt window-shoppers to linger a little longer. Boutiques reflect Raleigh's upscale and fashion-forward side, there are plenty of bargains, too. Find a designer dress at Fleur or Uniquities, or redecorate your home with one-of-a-kind pieces from Accipiter or Seagrove Pottery, a store that sells wares straight from North Carolina's largest community of potters. When the effects of a day-long shopping trip settle in, there are plenty of places to stop and refresh: Sample a glass of wine and a gourmet appetizer at The Grape —a sleek wine bar that allows guests to taste from any of its 120 wines before making a selection.
