The Charleston Visitor Center is located at 375 Meeting Street. They show a 20-minute film "Forever Charleston," highlighting sights in the city. It used to be free but now there is a charge to see the film. It was a boring film and not worth it.
Buses to the Charleston Airport depart from the Visitor Center. Cost is $2/person.
Statue of George Washington in Washington Park (also known as Washington Square), located at the corner of Broad and Meeting Street.
