Charleston | C’mon, This Southern “Old Money” City
It nails the vibe so perfectly! 💃 I finally visited Charleston— a place I’d had my eye on for ages— and it truly lived up to the hype. It’s like stepping right out of a movie, a total “Southern white moonlight” 🌙. Let me share my 4-hour itinerary! 1. Iconic Spots You Can’t Miss Rainbow Row: A street of houses that look like a spilled paint palette 🎨— pink, yellow, blue… it’s a total dream for anyone with a soft, girly side. Go in the morning if you can: the light is perfect, there are fewer people, and any pose you strike will look like a vintage postcard. The Battery: White waterfront mansions, with massive oak trees draped in Spanish moss. It’s exactly the atmospheric vibe from Gone with the Wind. Pineapple Fountain: This pineapple fountain 🍍 is way too cute for its own good! Make sure to walk around it— every angle is photo-worthy. Pretend you’re the runaway “princess” of South Carolina~ 2. 🍤 Foodie Alert: It’s Worth a Trip Just for the Eats! Brunch Champion: You must go to Callie's Hot Little Biscuit. Their biscuits are so good they’ll make you cry! Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside, and packed with buttery flavor— pure carb-induced happiness 🤤. Seafood Lover’s Paradise: When in the Lowcountry, seafood is non-negotiable! Head to Oyster House downtown for oysters so fresh they’ll make your taste buds sing. Or try a classic plate of Shrimp & Grits— savory, rich, and absolutely delicious! 3. 👻 After Dark, It Turns Into a Dark Fairy Tale Town You have to join a Ghost Tour! I’ve heard the guides tell centuries-old ghost stories in that soft Southern drawl— thrilling and totally addictive! ✨ In a Nutshell: Charleston is the kind of city where you’ll want to put on a little dress, hold a glass of sweet tea in one hand and a fan in the other, and just wander slowly. #CharlestonWonders #HiddenGemSouthernTown #USDiary #SouthCarolina #Charleston
