Carowinds is a thrilling amusement park found in Charlotte, North Carolina. Founded by Earl Patterson Hall, Carowinds was inspired by a trip to Disneyland with a dream of unity.

The “Splash” consists of Carolina Harbor, Slides and Attractions, Cabanas, and the Harbor House. As for “Rides” there are Roller Coasters, Thrill Rides, Family Rides, and Kids Rides.
