Because Charleston, SC is one of America's richest historical gems, it provides a unique opportunity for relaxation, education, and luxury. Tour the old city by horse-drawn carriage, with its many churches, graveyards, and historic buildings, or perhaps spend a day sunning yourself at one of the many nearby beaches. 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, it 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.
