Beautiful Charleston is truly a town for the artsy and a paradise for foodies. Below, let us take a look at the must-visit destinations in Charleston after you immigrate to the United States!
1. Eat oysters at Bowens Island Restaurant
Bowens Island Restaurant serves the freshest oysters, brought straight from Folly Beach to your table! The restaurant does not focus on plating; the simple wooden tables and paper plates only highlight the deliciousness of the food itself.
2. Take a walk on the jasmine-scented sidewalks
If you visit in the spring, you will surely be intoxicated by the alluring scent of jasmine and the fresh, artistic style of the architecture.
3. Visit the bars on Calhoun Street
The socialites of the United States South often prefer to visit The Battery or the Market Street area, but my personal favorites are the bars north of Calhoun Street, which have more character. My favorite at A.C.'s Bar and Grill is the gummy bear drink, and the chicken and waffles here are great too! Closed For Business is a fantastic place to drink beer. After a few drinks, you can also head to Dellz Deli to grab a super delicious late-night sandwich.
4. Explore Blue Bicycle Books
This is the best used bookstore in Charleston (and possibly the world). It is perfectly acceptable for artsy types to spend an entire afternoon here browsing books. The staff here are very warm and friendly, and the cats, which always look sleepy, are also adorable.
5. Sip sweet tea vodka on the porch
Charleston has many spacious porches, some of which were built in the 19th century and have survived hurricanes. In Charleston, sitting on a porch, soaking up the sun, and enjoying a glass of sweet tea is a must-do. If sweet tea sounds too plain, add a shot of vodka; it tastes great even without professional mixing!
6. Dine at Poe's Tavern
Have a big meal at Poe's Tavern, try their famous burgers and fish tacos, and soak in the cultural atmosphere. The writer Edgar Allan Poe was stationed here in 1827, and his short story "The Gold Bug" is set in this area.
