Charleston is a beautiful city with lots of things to do that most people overlook. Of course there is the State Capitol, which has a gold plated dome, the Cultural Center and the War Memorial. It is located on the East End of the city amid beautiful centuries-old houses. Across the river from the Capitol is the University of Charleston, a ...
In Charleston,the Kanawha River winds gently thru the city and divides it into two sectors.One side of the river is the business district with its shops,commerce and cafes,on the other side of the river a large expanse of forest is located that gradiates upward on to a nature preserve teeming with wildlife above the town. Here,near the Amtrak ...

Great Mountain Biking!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/26/05
It's great to have a place to mountain bike without having to leave the county. Kanawha State Forest has SEVERAL single track offerings that rate in difficulty from easy to very technical but we personally like to ride Middle Ridge Road as we are not partial to single track riding. Riding Middle Ridge Road gives us a 12 mile loop ride when we ...

CHARLESTON ,WV
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 09/14/05
I LIKE EVERYTHING ABOUT WEST VIRGINIA IT IS A VERY GREAT PLACE TO HAVE A VACATION WITH YOUR FAMILY. IF YOU ARE IN SOUTHERN WEST VIRGINIA YOU CAN ENJOY CAMPING, FISHING, OR ATV RIDING.
At first look from the Interstate, Charleston looks like little more than an old industrial town, but in reality it's quite cozy. Very little crime, friendly people and a nice shopping mall downtown makes for a pleasant overnight stay.

AMERICA'S BEST KEPT SECRET
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/11/05
From the beautiful gleaming golden capital dome..to the glass high rises or Allegheny Mountains in the background, and then there's the winding Kanawha that cuts through the heart of the city. For a small city of around (60,000) Charleston offers alot. From musuems, amusement parks, malls, hotels, parks, and recreation. The city's metro ...

why all the frills just to sleep?
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 05/16/05
Of course we enjoy all the frills in the expensive hotels but have asked ourselves when we get the bill; why pay for the stuff we really don't use? That is exactly why we liked staying at Microtel. It is clean, comfortable, accessable, and very very affordable. We rented two rooms in this hotel for ourselves and family - both were to be non-smoking. One room was fine, however the other reeked of smoke.
