Architectural Digest named Beaufort the Prettiest town in South Carolina in a recent list published on the magazine’s website.
“Rich in architecture and layered with nature—whether it’s canopies of trees, a beach that stretches for miles, or the glass-like surface on a lake or river—each U.S. state hosts more than one town that will take your breath away,” AD said.
“From the East Coast to all the way to the West, we have listed are our favorites, with special love for small towns that are also abundant in culture. So put on your hiking boots and get ready to explore. ”
Among countless other things, Beaufort’s majestic Antebellum homes help give it the special charm that the town is revered for; no doubt something that Architectural Digest paid attention to when making their selection.
In picking Beaufort as the prettiest town, and one that you should explore, in South Carolina, the article was sure to mention “historical buildings and walking tours documenting 500 years of history.”
