"Stretching four city blocks through Charleston’s historic district and open since 1807, this bustling crossroads hosts more than 300 small businesses where sweetgrass basket weavers practice centuries-old Gullah traditions alongside vendors selling cowboy hats and tea-olive–scented candles; the Night Market adds culinary vendors offering family-recipe pound cakes and award-winning barbecue. When I’m there I order a sausage, egg, and pimento cheese biscuit from Callie’s Hot Little Biscuit and enjoy the lively mix of craft and cuisine." - Wendy Pramik
