Wandering through the city's famous Historic District, you would swear it is a movie set. The steeples of more than 180 churches punctuate the low skyline, and horse-drawn carriages pass centuries-old mansions, their stately salons offering a crystal-laden and parquet-floor version of Southern Comfort. Outside, magnolia-filled gardens overflow with carefully tended heirloom plants. Happily, after three centuries of epidemics, fires, and hurricanes, Charleston has prevailed and is now one of the South's best-preserved cities.
