The hub of downtown that is steeped in history .. once called the "Slave Market" as it was where the ships came in and sold humans as slaves. Now home to local flavors, arts, and crafts. A must see for anyone visiting Charleston and a great place to ask locals about the hot spots. Plenty of touring companies in the area and also where you will find the carriage tours.
