10Charleston, South Carolina
Last but not necessarily least, is the historic city of Charleston. After all, there is simply something unique about the South. Setting aside the allegedly woke observations, the everyday life one experiences here in the largest city in the state includes all the romantic notions associated with this part of the country including the stunning stately homes, the sumptuous local dishes, and the legendary “southern hospitality.” Stroll around and take in the colored stuccos, gaslamp-lit streets, horse-drawn carriages, lush palmettos, and majestic mansions with their ironwork balconies.
