NORTHWEST CHARLESTON. This 17th-century plantation has one of the nation's largest collections of azaleas and camellias; plus, a few gardens date back to the 1680s. Two previous main houses were destroyed by fire during a raid by Union troops, and the current house, furnished with period pieces, dates to 1873. The plantation also includes the 60-acre Audubon Swamp Garden with its majestic cypress trees. Children under 6 are not permitted on the House tour. (© 10Best) The gardens here are beautiful, especially in winter when camellias are in bloom and in spring when the azaleas are at their peak.
