Arteries carry blood away from the heart while veins carry blood to the heart.
The vena cava (a vein) carries blood to the right atrium, and the pulmonic vein carries blood to the left atrium.
If you are talking about the coronary arteries that feed the muscle of the heart, they go to the myocardium.
