Fayetteville was recently named by CNN as one of the most charming cities that’s sometimes overlooked by travelers headed south.

“There’s more to America’s Southern states than cities such as Nashville, Austin and New Orleans,” the list states.

Suggestions for Fayetteville visitors include meals at Hugo’s and Greenhouse Grille. For drinks, CNN listed Fossil Cove Brewing, Columbus House Brewery and Maxine’s Tap Room.

For fun, the list mentions the Razorback Greenway, First Thursday Fayetteville, The Clinton House Museum and Backspace.
