A
Oakland Cemetery
Gone With the Wind author Margaret Mitchell and golf great Bobby Jones are buried in the Oakland Cemetery. Many interesting Victorian and neoclassical monuments are scattered throughout the site, and - if it doesn't creep you out too much - there's a nice open greenspace for picnics.

Old Slave Mart Museum
- Charleston, USA
- Sights › Dark
African men, women and children were once auctioned off at the Old Slave Mart Museum, now a museum of South Carolina's shameful past. Text-heavy exhibits illuminate the slave experience; the few artifacts, like leg shackles, are especially chilling.

Kids love the Old Exchange & Provost Dungeon, built in 1771 as a customs house and later used as a dungeon prison for pirates. Costumed guides lead tours.
