15. Charleston, South Carolina
Southern charm and old-world elegance abounds in this confection of cobblestones and sherbet-colored homes. Start your explorations at the market to enjoy artisanal crafts and browse local artworks; there’s even more to tempt you along the nearby main street, which bristles with antique stores, galleries and boutiques. A rooftop bar will give you great views of the harbor; once refreshed, don’t miss the historical neighborhoods on the south side of Broad Street and the fort views from White Point Gardens.
16. Dubrovnik, Croatia
The atmospheric Old Town is compact and easy to cover on foot; if you can handle heights and uneven surfaces, explore its walls for incredible Adriatic views. The city’s central promenade also affords exciting opportunities for diving off into the cobbled lanes which veer off from it: be prepared for stairs and steep inclines. For those who like a challenge, there’s the winding footpath that leads to Mount Srd, some 400 meters above the city.
