"Colorful, creative and designed around experiential learning, Charlotte's Discovery Place is the place to keep kids of all ages entertained. Here, you won't be reading placards–you'll be learning firsthand. The exhibits are interactive and fun, and while they're geared for kids, adults will enjoy it too. There is no guided tour. This is the kind of place where patrons run to the exhibit that interests them the most before moving on to the next great thing. Discovery Place doesn't offer a cafe, but you're in Uptown so there's always something nearby." - Nancy DePalma
