Sunset Hills

The Famous Lighted Christmas Balls: Sunset Hills is renowned throughout the Triad for its spectacular holiday tradition. Every December, the neighborhood hangs thousands of massive, colorful lighted balls high in the tree canopy, drawing visitors from all over North Carolina and raising tens of thousands of dollars for the local food bank.
