Charleston, South Carolina

The Holy City & Religious Tolerance

Known as “The Holy City” due to the numerous church steeples that dot the city’s skyline, Charleston was one of the few cities in the thirteen colonies to provide religious tolerance. In fact, although the city was predominantly Protestant, Charleston was home to the largest and wealthiest Jewish population in North America (as of 1830). Religion aside, this city continued to be a place of beauty and peace, with a plethora of tropical beaches, mansions, and charming shops. Today, the sentiment of Charleston is still as strong as ever, with brick roads and horse drawn carriages reminiscent of times gone by.
