North Carolina is a southeastern state with a rich history and attractions ranging from mountains to popular beaches. North Carolina’s most common nickname is the “Tar Heel State.” Historians don’t quite know how it got the moniker, but they think it might stem from the state’s legacy as a leading producer of tar, pitch, rosin, and turpentine. Other nicknames for North Carolina include the Old North State, the Land of the Sky, and the Rip Van Winkle State. Among the major attractions are the Great Smoky Mountains, the Blue Ridge National Parkway, and many more!
