South Carolina Travel Guide

South Carolina is known as the Palmetto State of the United States. It is considered to be the prettiest states in the U.S. Located on the East Coast between North Carolina and Georgia. Take a trip to South Carolina and you will soon discover the meaning of southern hospitality.

Columbia, the capital of South Carolina, is situated in the South Carolina Heartland and is an industrial powerhouse of the state that maintains a hometown air. A city preserved in time, Charleston is located near the South Carolina Coast and is the epitome of charm, complete with narrow, cobbled streets.

Charleston is, without doubt, the state's most famous city. This is the genteel heart of South Carolina and has been so since the first English settlement here in 1670. This historic port is proud of its long history, embracing its churches, the mansions of once wealthy merchants and an important military past. Here there are museums of art and history, the Riverbanks Zoo and Garden and the intriguing State Museum. Outside the city, which is also home to the state university, are the 50,000-acre Lake Murray and the Saluda River, both great for fishing and a wide variety of water sports.

Charleston is one of the most elegant cities in the country. South of Charleston the coastline breaks up into small marshy islands that preserve traces of the Gullah culture. These Sea Islands are home to black communities, descendants of the West African slaves brought to the plantations who were given land when they were freed in 1865, and who speak a dialect known as Gullah that is unique to the African-Americans of the Sea Islands of South Carolina and Georgia.
