One of the oldest and most family frequented parks in Raleigh is Pullen Park. It is a place perfect for children to run around, play games and have fun with their friends. It is also a great place to stroll with your partner or with friends.

The major attraction of the place is the carousel which is one of the oldest in the city.

The park is under renovation now and it will open its gates during the summer period this year (2011). It is worthwhile to visit it if you travel to Raleigh during or after the summer.

520 Ashe Ave, Raleigh, NC 27606, USA
