South Carolina is a living coloring book with black-and-white-striped lighthouses, red apples, yellow-pink peaches, green-and-red watermelons and earth-toned forts and ruins. Unique landforms, parks, historic sites, towns and cities help make South Carolina a land that’s just right for work, life and play. From A to Z, color South Carolina “Just right.” A—Color My Autos & Airplanes We don’t just drive cars and fly airplanes. We make them!

The road is wide open, and the sky is the limit! Color our future bright! IT’S A FACT! An empty 787 airplane weighs as much as 29 elephants. BMW stands for Bavarian Motor Works. B—Color My Bridges Poinsett Bridge looks like a fort. People walk across a waterfall on Greenville’s Liberty Bridge. Artists paint Columbia’s Gervais Street Bridge. The Ravenel Bridge can handle 300 mile-per-hour winds and take you to Charleston’s Rainbow Row. In South Carolina, you can get from here to there!

Those and other icons of the National Park System are undeniably spectacular, and to experience their wonders is well worth braving the crowds they inevitably draw. But lest you think the big names are the whole story, consider that the vast park network also boasts plenty of less well-known destinations that are beautiful, historic, or culturally significant—or all of the above. Some of these gems are off the beaten track, others are slowly rising to prominence, and a few are simply overshadowed by bigger, better-publicized parks. But these national parks, monuments, historic places, and recreation areas are overlooked by many, and that’s a mistake you won’t want to make. nobodthe places y knows For every Yosemite, there’s a lesser-known park where the scenery shines and surprises.
