Charleston Essentials
Charleston showcases centuries of American architecture and history through its well-preserved landmark buildings and natural sites. This collection features the 18th-century Old Exchange and Provost Dungeon, the neoclassical Nathaniel Russell House, and the Gothic Revival St. Philip's Church. Key historical sites include Fort Sumter, where the Civil War began, and the Old Slave Mart Museum. The city's coastal character is defined by the waterfront White Point Gardens, the iconic Pineapple Fountain, and the massive, centuries-old Angel Oak tree.
