....EHH!!! LIKE I WAS WAITING FOR A PAINTED LADIES TYPE OF STREET, OR MAYBE SOMETHING BETTER,,, The paint on these homes were faded and the trees were all grown over...tighten up s. Carolina this is supposed to be a epic part of the city, and well ..ITS NOT GAVE It 3 because of the weather in that spot SHADY TREE!!!
Beautiful place to visit. The weather was just right (early September), when my family and I went. Charleston,SC is such a charming place to see. I think it's a romantic place. Rainbow row is as beautiful as I've seen in other pictures. The area is a historic landmark. People running as they exercise and walking their doggies. You can smell the ocean water as you walk near the pier near by. Some parking around is free after a certain time in the day. There wasn't large crowds when I visited. The sunset was stunning! I highly recommend to visit.
Its a nice walk in a beautiful city!!! I did loved Charleston, in particular the Rainbow row its not soecial, but worth to walt towards the sea, definetly a place to visit and enjoy
Beautiful place!! What a lovely idea to fill everything with colors 🌈 Without a doubt, a place full of history and beauty 💗🫶🏻 Perfect for taking photos, but if you visit on the weekend, like I did, be prepared to wait for places to take them 📸 The heat was also intense! Apart from that, the place is truly enjoyable.
Very pretty if you like peeking at people's private homes... lol in all honesty it was very cool to see and the window boxes were beautiful!
