WinstonSalem is one of them. It’s a midsized city in what’s called the plateau（high land）, between the Atlantic Coast and the inland mountains in the state of North Carolina. The Winston part is a relatively new place, founded early this century. It’s home to the nation’s biggest openair tobacco market.The giant . Reynolds Tobacco Company’s headquarters is in WinstonSalem, and Winston is the name of one of Reynolds’ bestknown cigarette brands.

They spoke German, and their munity was religiously based, with single men and single women living apart in separate dormitories. The Moravians greatly valued women’s work and brainpower. In fact, one of the nation’s oldest boarding schools for young women— the Moravians’Salem Academy founded in 1772 — is still in operation.  Over the years, Salem lost its Moravian character.

These days Old Salem is what’s called a living history museum, with exhibits, music, and tours of 18thcentury houses, bars and Moravian dormitory buildings just seven blocks from the tallest skyscraper(high building) in WinstonSalem. The historic munity is booming again.
