Barbour's General Store
Now serving as a fascinating museum, this authentic and picturesque 19th-century country shop sits in a prominent location in the heart of the city, near the site where Barbour's factory once stood. It contains some 2,000 artifacts that would have been sold here in its 1860s heyday. The store also doubles as a retail outlet for modern local merchandise, some of which make good souvenirs, and there's a tearoom, a visitor information center, and a tour desk, where you can book various city tours and harbor cruises. The amusing figures on the walkway outside make for a popular photo op.
