    Start your morning with an overview of Spartanburg's history at the Spartanburg Regional History Museum, where you will find exhibits about their rich textile and military history, beautiful handcrafted furniture and other decorative arts from Spartanburg County, as well as a variety of changing exhibits.

    Stop for lunch at Carolina Barbecue on Lone Oak road. This will be the first BBQ restaurant on your itinerary and is an all time favourite. The reviews say it is the best BBQ in Carolina.

    After you have enjoyed an amazing BBQ enjoy the rest of the day at Leisure.

    The terms match & the other site often shares comps.


    No merge requested as I am not 100% re the dupe.
