The North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences is
another fun museum in Raleigh. This is the oldest

and nature. Come here in September for BugFest.

SIR WALTER RALEIGH
The city of Raleigh was
named for Sir Walter

Englands Queen Elizabeth I
sent him to claim land in
North America. Raleigh tried
twice to set up colonies in
what is now North Carolina.
Both attempts failed. The
area wasnt settled until the
1600s. Thats when settlers
from Virginia, who were
looking for farmland, came
to the area.
