Perhaps the most popular area to visit! It is along the southern tip of the city, filled with southern style mansions overlooking the Charleston harbour. You can explore the neighborhood, walk through White Point Garden with Civil War relics and memorials, and stroll through the waterfront park.
For history lovers, a fascinating experience is to tour the Aiken Rhett House Museum. It is the preserved home of Governor William Aiken and his wife from the mid-1800's. It's like stepping back in time with antique furnishings, original wallpaper. There is a self-guided audio tour.
The first shot of the Civil War was fired at Fort Sumter. You can take a ferry to tour the caverns and cannons. At the restored Charleston naval base, you can see the HL Hunley submarine, which is the world's first combat submarine from 1863.
One of Charleston's most iconic images is the Angel Oak Tree on John's Island. It is the largest live oak, east of the Mississippi, standing at 65 feet high. It is between 300-400 years old.
