As I walked through the Congaree National Park, I couldn't help but be impressed by the ancient trees towering above me. The park's history dates back centuries, with Native American tribes inhabiting the area long before European settlers arrived. The park's diverse ecosystem is a testament to the resilience of nature, with bald cypress trees standing in still waters and an array of birds flying overhead. I compared the scenery to Croft State Park which I visited earlier. Croft State Park was beautiful and all, but the Congaree National Park seemed like something out of a science fiction movie. The park had a calming effect on me, and I found myself losing track of time as I explored.
