Discovery Place

Fun and frolic has been an integral part of the city of Charlotte in North Carolina. In fact, the city administrators kept this in mind when they were formulating the blueprint for the development of the city. Key areas were ear marked for development into entertainment arenas which include amusement parks, museums, theatres etc. The hoards of entertainment centers in the city ensure that people who travel in Charlotte have a memorable experience, which they can take back with themselves.

One of the most prominent and recent additions to the already existing key entertainment arenas in the city has been that of the 'Discovery Place'. It is essentially a place of tourist attraction and of interest to children but the owners have also incorporated some elements into the place by way of which the adults can also have a fun experience.

The 'Discovery Place' is the best place to go to with your family, friends and kids. While in Charlotte, traveling to a lot of places may be on your itinerary but do not forget to add this place too. The big fish aquarium with over 30 varieties of different fishes along with the 'rainforest' simulation of South America, make the experience an unforgettable one.

One of the best features of the place is the 3-D film viewing experience that it provides the viewers with. This is unique and one of its kind attraction which is not found in a lot of places. People can see the entire episode of dinosaur extinction or enjoy a film on the growth of animal species. A lot of new and innovative games have also been incorporated into the place, which enhance the quality of one's visit.
