There are a few spots off the peninsula you shouldn’t miss, including the massive natural wonder, the Angel Oak. Located on Johns Island, the tree is named for Martha and Justin Angel, who owned the land where it casts a shadow over 17,000 square feet of land. The tree is estimated to be 1,500 years old, making it probably the oldest living thing in Charleston. It is 65 feet tall and 25 feet around. Its heavy branches plunge into the earth and re-emerge stronger. There is no charge to visit, be awed and take photos, but stop in the gift shop and buy a remembrance or make a donation to keep the tree protected from ever encroaching development.

Most visitors to the Charleston Historic District explore the famous streets, either casually or by taking a guided tour. Along the way, several historic churches stand out including St. Philips Episcopal Church, the Circular Congregational Church on Meeting Street and the neighboring Unitarian Church and St. John's Lutheran Church, both located along Archdale Street.Something most visitors and many residents do not know, however, is that there is a lovely walkway that connects these historic churches.

Gateway WalkMost visitors to the Charleston Historic District explore the famous streets, either casually or by taking a guided tour. Along the way, several historic churches stand out including St. Philips Episcopal Church, the Circular Congregational Church on Meeting Street and the neighboring Unitarian Church and St. John's Lutheran Church, both located along Archdale Street.Something most visitors and many residents do not know, however, is that there is a lovely walkway that connects these historic churches. Situated in the historic heart of Charleston and yet quite off the beaten path, Gateway Walk provides a respite from the busy main streets as it meanders through time-weathered graveyards
