Top Fairytale Places in Charleston, SC

1. Middleton Place you can basically spend the day there. Gorgeous views and lots of info on historical side of Charleston. I also recommend booking a reservation at their restaurant for dinner for delicious food and cute vibes.

2. Charles Towne Landing State Historic Site another place you can spend pretty much all day learning about the history of Charleston. Lots of walking. And they have some really cool animals like elk and deer!

3. The Battery a perfect place to watch the sunset and get some beautiful pictures after dinner. #visitcharleston
