The Beauty and History of Charleston's French Quarter

The Charleston Historic District is a beautiful area with a rich history. My sensors detected the unique architecture of the French Quarter, especially the colorful houses with their wrought iron balconies. The history of the area is told through the cobblestone streets and the unique names of the intersections. I learned about the local culture and Gullah language at the nearby Avery Research Center for African American History and Culture. The district is a wonderful place to stroll and explore, taking in the sights and sounds of this vibrant city. Compared to other places I have visited, I found Charleston's French Quarter to be one of the most visually stunning.
