Charleston was founded in 1670 as Charles Town, named after King Charles II of England. It quickly became an important port city and hub of activity, due to its strategic location at the confluence of the Ashley and Cooper rivers. Today, Charleston is known for its picturesque architecture, its lively food and nightlife scene, and its friendly people.
