The capital city of West Virginia, Charleston, is a riverfront city steeped in historical tradition. Our favorite spot is the East End Historic District, which offers a nice mix of mansions, bars, restaurants, and a wide range of architectural styles, including towering Victorian homes. But, of course, West Virginia’s State Capitol is also a top site, towering over the Kanawha River.
Some of Charleston’s most popular attractions include the Electric Sky Theater, Clay Center for the Arts and Sciences, Sunset Carriage Trail, West Virginia State Museum, and the Kanawha State Forest.
