welcome center
Tourist information spot
A welcome center is a facility that provides information and assistance to visitors, typically at highway rest stops, state borders, or tourist destinations.
Staff or volunteers offer maps, brochures, and recommendations about local attractions, lodging, and services.
We stopped at the welcome center to grab a map and stretch our legs.
