Almost any fancy can be tickled in Burlington. Best known as a textile industry
center, Burlington is notorious amongst well-versed shoppers, with deals on
almost any product imaginable. However, the centerpiece of the city has little
to do with shoppers at all. The 1910 Dentzel Menagerie Carousel is located in
Burlington's City Park and features 46 hand-carved animals, including horses,
lions, pigs, and giraffes. The Alamance County Historical Museum examines the
life of textile pioneer Edwin Michael Holt and showcases such things as quilting.
For those looking to enjoy the finer things, the Gallery Players perform a variety
of well-known theatrical productions.
