| Today when visiting Charleston, the
City Market is a must to see. There are a total of four buildings spanning from Meeting
Street to East Bay Street. An assortment of wares is sold by hundreds of vendors. Contrary
to popular belief, the City Market is not a flea market. Most merchandise is first
quality. | 

| Sweet grass basket weavers can be
seen in every building, along with, local artists, jewelry, tapestry, souvenirs, afghans,
rugs, beans and sauces, local candies and cookies and much more. The horse and carriages
gallop by with people from all over the world, restaurants line both North and South
Market street. |
