Charleston City Market is a historic market complex that dates back to the early 19th century, originally serving as a place for farmers and merchants to sell their goods. It stretches for four city blocks, featuring a mix of local artisans, food vendors, and specialty shops housed within a series of open-air stalls and covered pavilions. Visit in the late morning when the market is alive with vendors and the aroma of Southern cuisine fills the air. Nearby, the historic district offers charming streets and antebellum architecture, while the waterfront is a short walk away, providing a scenic view of the harbor. Look for handmade sweetgrass baskets, a traditional craft unique to the region.
