10 Shopping in Blowing Rock That You Shouldn't Miss
Named "the only place in the world where snow falls upside down" by Ripley's-Believe-It-Or-Not, the legendary Blowing Rock geological formation has been attracting visitors to its corner of North Carolina since 1933. The accompanying mountain village of Blowing Rock sits 4,000 feet above sea level along the scenic Blue Ridge Parkway. The winter brings enough snow to the nearby Blue Ridge Mountain peaks that it is possible to ski the south, staying over at one of Blowing Rocks charming B&Bs.

For small children, this is a great place with a variety outside of the big box stores. Also though, has a lot of great boardgames for both teens and adults.

I popped in here after having bfast at Southern Comforts. This shop held some fun trinkets for the house that were handmade art. As well, some imported products, one of which I purchased. I had a nice conversation with the woman working that day. Drop by and check it out. It will brighten your day.

Nice, airy tasting room with some outdoor seating and socially distanced indoor tables. Good assortment of wines with several reasonably priced flights. Friendly and capable service and guidance. A great place for a beverage before dinner. Go.
