Historic Charleston is located on the southern coast of South Carolina. Its rich history began in the 1600's as an early English settlement. Over the next few centuries, Charleston became one of the most important cities on the east coast, playing a major role in the Civil War as one of the South's main ports. Luckily, Charleston was the first city in the U.S. to pass a historical preservation ordinance, so all of the beautiful colonial architecture remains for generations to see and enjoy. If it's American history you seek, Charleston is a must see. Charleston is also famous for its world class dining. Charleston is located on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean, so obviously the emphasis on dining is seafood. Fresh tuna, grouper, and mahi-mahi are plentiful in most restaurants along with crab, shrimp and other shellfish. Specialties include oyster stew, she-crab soup, and shrimp and grits. The possibilities are endless to find the perfect dining experience. But Charleston is still in the south so you'll find all of the specialties that come to mind when you think about southern cooking. From barbeque and greens to fried chicken and mashed potatoes, you'll find all the lowcountry comfort food you can eat. |
