Past and present come together in Charleston, South Carolina’s oldest urban settlement. Named “The World’s Best City” by Travel + Leisure in 2016, “Most Friendly City” by Condé Nast Traveler in 2013 and 2014, and among the top 25 art destinations in America by American Style magazine, Charleston is that rare setting where historic sites like Fort Sumter sit alongside trendy art galleries and boho cafés.
