A trip to downtown Charleston can leave you aesthetically overwhelmed- int the best sense. To step back in time and absorb Charleston's history and culture, walk the residential streets in the historic South of Broad district. These colorful homes complete with beautiful ironwork, long side porches with swirling fans, and perfectly manicured flower boxes comprise the original Charleston peninsula neighborhood. I used to live near here and went on many walks and runs before discovering that some of the most darling streets and special pieces of Charleston history are tucked back in alleyways that are easily overlooked on the first (and second and third) pass. This walking tour guide provides step-by- step instructions on how to find and explore 7 hidden alleyways in downtown Charleston- plus tips on the best places to park, and see out AC or refreshments if you're doing it on a hot Charleston summer day.
