GPS Tour of Charleston
Featuring:The Battery and mansions South of Broad
As locals will tell you, the Atlantic Ocean was formed by the Ashley and Cooper Rivers that flow past this peninsula city. A less controversial analogy is that the history of Charleston runs deep. Charleston was a picnic ground for Native Americans, a haunt for pirates during British Colonization, a stronghold during the Revolution, a kind of Ellis Island for slaves, the birthplace of the Civil War, and is still today a bustling seaport. All of this history is preserved in the architecture and environs of this beautiful city.
