Things to do in Charleston

Charleston was founded in 1670, and its peninsula of church steeples, cobblestone streets, pastel row houses and walled gardens is one of the best-preserved historic cities in the country. That beauty has made it a top destination for weddings, food lovers and leisure travelers, but Charleston also has a fast-growing economy: Boeing assembles 787 Dreamliners in North Charleston, the Port of Charleston is one of the busiest on the East Coast, and the Medical University of South Carolina, the College of Charleston and a growing technology sector bring a steady stream of business visitors.
