TOP TRAVEL PICK
From high above, the Charleston area resembles a beautiful tapestry
woven with shades of indigo, marshgrass and oyster shell. Etched with
barrier islands and bodies of water, the landscape has a poetic shape.
With the perfect combination of beautiful beaches, world-class cuisine,
antebellum architecture, and an endless supply of engaging things to
see and do, it’s no wonder the Charleston area is consistently named
a top U.S. destination.
In Charleston, daily life is accompanied by a gentle harmony of church
bells, rustling palmetto fronds, and lyrical sea island accents. Church
steeples—not skyscrapers—dot the skyline, and a tangible connection
to the past permeates the community. Copper gas-lit lanterns and
hitching posts hint at a bygone era and heirloom varieties of grits and
rice are mainstays on the menus of local James Beard Foundation
award-winning chefs.
Discover the people, places, and traditions found only in Charleston,
South Carolina. Come, let this special destination enliven your senses.
