USA TODAY named the Charleston City Market the #1 place for Christmas shopping in Charleston!
"The Charleston City Market is our top recommendation for local Christmas and holiday shopping in the Holy City. Head here early to beat some of the crowds, and peruse the hundreds of vendor stalls within this covered historic market. Equipped with public restrooms and a Caviar & Bananas restaurant location, shopping at the market is a fun and convenient experience for the whole family. The Charleston City Market is sure to offer the foodie, craft, or souvenir gift you're looking for, as their vendors boast an unseen variety of products and wares. The City Market is also conveniently located close to carriage tour companies and several excellent restaurants, both casual and fine dining."
