STEP INTO A MOVIE SCENE
Though just a short drive from downtown Charleston, Cypress Gardens seems a world away. It was here that the swan scene in the blockbuster hit The Notebook was filmed.

STROLL THEN SAVOR
Meander down Charleston’s cobblestone streets and stroll past flickering copper carriage lanterns and wrought-iron garden gates before walking to the quaint neighborhood hotspot Brasserie la Banque. Aptly named for its previous role as a city bank, Brasserie la Banque is located within the iconic 1 Broad Street corner building that dates back to the 1700s. Here you’ll savor traditional French flavors including steak frites, mussels and escargot.
