In the beginning, there was Charles Towne Landing, the original Charleston village. Led by faith in a new beginning, a group of colonists chartered to the great unknown to create what we now know as Charleston, South Carolina. Today, the original village, situated in West Ashley, SC still holds the authenticity it did when settlers landed in 1670. The village itself is only the beginning of the magic you will see when you visit this family-friendly attraction.
While you are here you will experience:
- Zoo filled with wolves, bears, buffalo, birds, and even a skunk
- Beautiful views of the Lowcountry
- Restored homes
